Tips for writing the best New Year’s messages.
These tips will help you craft truly meaningful and extra magical New Year’s messages.
- Reframe clichés with an unexpected twist. Add humor to your New Year’s messages. For example, instead of saying “New Year, New Me” why not put a hilarious spin on it to make it more authentic and relatable, like “New Year, New Me? More like ‘New Year, Still Forgetting my Wi-Fi Password.’”
- Go beyond wishes. Instead of just writing a message that conveys your wish for the new year, why not end with an invitation that encourages the reader to participate? For example, something like “Share your most unusual resolution and I’ll share mine too,” can make your message more engaging.
- Share your highlights from the past year. Use the photo collage maker to share a few funny, heartfelt, or surprising highlights from your year.
- Make it interactive. Just because it’s interactive doesn’t mean you need to always use a QR code in your design. For instance, use the letter templates to make a fillable resolution checklist that’s customized according to the recipient’s personal goals for the coming year.
- Experiment with color palettes. Step away from the usual color combinations like gold, black, and champagne. Instead, consider incorporating vintage neon hues, muted pastels, or rich terracotta-inspired colors to create fresh, unique palettes that make your New Year’s projects stand out.
