One of my favorite post-shooting activities is birth announcement (or holiday card) design. Granted, I am no design goddess, but I do love finding great designs and even more, I love seeing it all come together! One of my recent moms and I just put the finishing touches on her little guy's announcement and I love how it all turned out! And, no, I'm not going to show you his, but I will show you a few of my other favorites....
Love, love, love the simplicity of this whole set...and I love using the back of the announcement too!
A little girlier version.
The fun part is finding the right color and the best font etc...
Ok, I'll admit it, I enjoy making up fake names to use on the samples too...
If you happen to be...
- the mother (or father) of a recently photographed newborn
- expecting a newborn and feeling the urge to be organized
or
3. just someone who like to look at cute baby stuff
you can see ALL the birth announcement samples here.
They are fabulous! Almost makes me want to have another baby just so I can send out more announcements. (Almost, but not quite.) And I love that my little S was renamed "Charles Darwin". How did you know that was our second choice for her name?

You are very amazing with all of the design stuff, I love all of the announcements and can't wait to see ours "for reals"!
