This week we were thrilled to catch-up with our favorite Las Vegas-based beauty & lifestyle blogger, Shelby Vert. Shelby founded her blog Shelby Tristin in 2017 where she has been a reliable source for clean beauty products, affordable fashion recommendations, and travel tips. But today we are so excited to be chatting about all things seasonal, holiday, and apple cider donuts!
There are two types of people on Valentine’s Day. On the one hand, there are Cupid’s loyal devotees who can’t wait to wear pink and red, craft heart-shaped cards, and watch Hallmark  movies. The other camp is full of those who don’t take the holiday too seriously. Instead, they prefer to order pizza and binge on chocolate while trash-talking the latest celeb couples (rooting for you Justin and Hailey).
If you fall in the latter group, these hilarious Valentine’s Day card ideas are for you. Follow our easy steps to creating a gut-busting ecard to send to your significant other, bestie, or even your coworkers — after all, you’re known for bringing comedic relief to your office. Just follow this guide to make this year’s Valentine’s Day cards funny like never before.

Who says the first baby has to get all the celebrations? Chances are for baby number one, you had a gender reveal, baby shower, and maybe even a sip-and-see. A sprinkle shower is a wonderful way to welcome your second (third, fourth, or fifth) baby and celebrate your growing family with your loved ones.
But unlike your first all-out shower, a baby sprinkle is a bit more laid back. You’ll want to communicate that through your baby sprinkle invitations so guests know they aren’t expected to spend big on a gift or show up dressed to the nines. We’ve outlined exactly how to do that and suggested some pretty dang cute invitations to celebrate your new baby.

The best thing about Halloween is that it’s a completely obligation-free holiday. There’s no traveling to visit family, gift-giving, or extensive meal preparation. All Hallows Eve is pure fun. Whatever your age, all you have to do is throw on a costume — if you’re into that sort of thing — and pig out on candy. (Or if you’re over 21, perhaps you’ll knock back a few Bloody Marys.)
If you’re throwing a Halloween bash, chances are you share our love for the holiday. Whether you’re hosting a trick or treat kids’ meetup or a classy adults-only affair, there’s a Halloween invitation to match. Browse our favorite Halloween party invitations, and get ready for a scary good time.

For a young woman, there are few days looked forward to as much as a quinceañera. This “fiesta de quince años” or “fiesta de quinceañera” — represents a young woman’s coming of age. And for most birthday girls, it also represents an opportunity to express their style and celebrate with their friends and family. There’s dancing. There’s cake. There’s luxury — topped off, quite literally, with a tiara. Gifts are often shared, photos taken, and food passed around.
To help her celebrate, you’ll need all your friends, family, and loved ones in attendance. So get ready to send out a lot of invites!
Below, you’ll find quince invitations to help celebrate an upcoming quinceañera. She’ll have so much fun she may want to do it again next year with a sweet sixteen.

There is no month that comes more quickly than December.
When January hits our calendar, we’re hit with plans — plans for trips, for goals, for milestones. We make lists of New Year’s resolutions and dream of new jobs, vacations, or moving into our first place. And as the weather gets warmer then colder again, suddenly it’s the twelfth month of the year and we’re wondering where the last eleven went.
Hopefully, they went something like this: You made new friends, you closed a few business deals, you started a project you’re proud of. You watched movies on your Friday nights in and tried new bars and restaurants on your nights out. You wrote emails and Instagram captions, screenshotted a few memes, and overall spent the year with the random, wonderful people in your life doing the most random, wonderful things.
It’s fitting that we send cards at Christmastime — that time, of course, that just happens to fall at the end of the year. It’s an opportunity to show gratitude toward those who spent the last year with us, acknowledging the highlights, opportunities, and favorite moments.
And if there’s a particular memory that stands out, there’s surely a unique card to match it. Below we’re sharing twelve of the most unique holiday cards on Greenvelope, perfectly matched to the most cherished memories of your year.
