This announcement, brought to us by our dear friend Erin of Smitten Boutique, celebrates a delightful milestone with soft florals, a cheerful color palette, and an adorable photo of the little one. The look was inspired by our Whitney design but beautifully customized into a charming keepsake. While this design is retired, it is still available to customize; we simply no longer maintain samples. This letterpress birth announcement is extra special because we’ve also had the pleasure of printing the announcements for baby Georgia’s older siblings.

Soft watercolor florals arranged in a wreath to frame the photo are graceful and add a vibrant burst of color while creating a delicate, airy styling. A letterpress border that follows the edge of the card adds more color and showcases the smooth texture of the 2-ply stock.

Delicate typography features generous spacing for a clean, unencumbered presentation. Georgia’s stationery-savvy mom took things a step further by also including a flat thank-you card in this suite. The child’s name appears in different versions of the same font on the announcement and the social note card. This creates a cohesive feel while still giving each card its own look. The announcement features the naive font, while the note card features naive inline, which adds some dimension and whimsy to the more subdued design.

The scalloped edge of the thank-you card introduces gentle dimension, echoing vintage stationery traditions with a fresh, modern simplicity. The edges feature a letterpress border again in our bellini ink, mimicking the look of the announcement.

A coordinating envelope liner uses the sample florals from the birth announcement’s wreath, but rearranged into a vertical pattern. Both cards have the same lovely liner. Everything about these cards is intentional and understated for a look that is elegant, fun, and timeless.
