Rad birth announcement

Love this birth announcement. The parents are so cool, and I love how the dad's hands are in his pockets. Very mellow of him. :)

  16. If the dad's hair was black, I could hold up a photo of my parents that looks *exactly* the same. Oh, but minus the baby. No kids until the 80s.

  36. this is so sweet. it's so nice to have something one of a kind to announce a baby's arrival. my aunt who is an artist designed the one when i was born, and every time i look at it in my baby book, it makes me smile. every baby is a totally unique miracle, so a storebought announcement, or one chosen out of a book seems just wrong.
    thanks for sharing!

  49. Hello,
    When I design custom invitations, I offer to design custom postage for my clients to complete the look of their invitation package. The party starts when the guests open their invitations, so setting the tone of the party with the invitation is important. But even before the envelope is opened, the first impression the guest has of the invitation is what’s on the outside.
