Santa, Holly and Wrapped Gifts for a Secret Santa Exchange
A navy invitation with white sparkle stars carries a cream page decorated with a Santa hat, a big red bow and holly at the top, a smiling cartoon Santa at the lower left and wrapped gifts at the lower right. INVITATION! sits at the top, a friendly paragraph follows, Secret runs in a red script and SANTA GIFT EXCHANGE in green capitals. A gold band shows the date and time, then a closing line, an address and an RSVP.
Decorated Cream Page
The card is 5 x 7 inches, portrait. Decorations sit at the corners of the cream page, leaving the centre clear for the text.
A February Date for a Christmas Exchange
The band reads SUN 18th FEB AT 9:00 PM. A Secret Santa exchange normally happens in December, so change the month and choose an earlier time. Check the weekday for your year. Replace Anywhere St and set the RSVP number.
Preparing the Secret Santa Invitation
- Change the date to December.
- Set an earlier time.
- Check the weekday.
- Type the address.
- Add a spending limit.
Setting a Spending Limit
Secret Santa works best with a clear budget, such as 20 dollars. Add the limit in the closing line so everyone spends about the same.
Drawing Names in Advance
Draw names a few weeks before so people have time to shop. Online name draw tools can send each person their match privately.
Running Secret Santa at Work
Offices often run Secret Santa at the team party. Change the address to the office or the restaurant, and set the time to lunchtime or straight after work.
Printing the Navy Border
The navy border prints well on matte card. Check that the white sparkle stars stay crisp, and let the ink dry before stacking the cards.
Wish Lists and Gift Ideas
Invite people to share a short wish list or three gift ideas. It saves guesswork and makes sure everyone receives something they like.
Sending the Secret Santa Invitations
Send them in November.
