Hosting tip
Schedule the family photo for the start of the evening, before the meal, while everyone is still neat in their new clothes. The Moon Gate sample builds it into the timing: "Family photos at six, feast at seven".
How it works

Details, wording, colors, download

Open any design above in the maker. One of these designs has a photo window: drop in a picture and drag it until it sits where you want it. Type the family or friends as hosts, the date and the address; the back carries the details and one line such as "Wear red for good luck" or "Bring tangerines to share". Lunar New Year 2027 falls on Saturday, February 6, and the Lantern Festival on Saturday, February 20.

Pick one of the three palettes drawn for the design, then download a 5 x 7 PDF (front and back), a two-per-sheet letter PDF for home printing, print-shop PNGs with bleed, 4 x 6 PNGs for a photo counter, a phone-sized PNG or a Word file.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use these for Tet?
Yes. Tet, the Vietnamese new year, falls on the same lunar date as Chinese New Year in most years, and blossoming branches are a Tet tradition too. Change the headline from Happy Lunar New Year to Happy Tet or the greeting your family uses.
What do plum blossoms stand for?
Plum trees bloom at the end of winter, often in the cold, so the blossom stands for endurance and the spring on its way. That makes it a fitting flower for a holiday also called the Spring Festival.
