Recent Design-Photo Birth Announcement

Makaylin's proud parents choose our Glory design to announce their beautiful girl's arrival. To customize their photo card design we adjusted the color scheme to a softer shade of pink. Makaylin's nickname, Kaylie was spotlighted behind her full name. Addie Kate Creations offers many birth announcements that can be customized to include the child's nickname.

Pre-ordering envelopes for announcements and holiday cards

Imagine for a minute that you are a new mom with a 4 week old baby. You haven't had a good nights sleep in over a month. Your mother-in-law keeps asking you why she hasen't received a birth announcement yet. The thought of addressing envelopes is enough to make you want to pull your hair out!

Thankfully this common scenario can be easily prevented. Addie Kate Creations allows customers to pre-order envelopes for any occasion. All that is required is that you pay for your order in full and your envelopes can be sent early for no additional shipping cost. Whether you are looking to get organized before the baby arrives or get a jump on your holiday cards before the busy season starts, this option is for you!

Include the whole family in your new child's birth announcement

Today's popular collage photo cards are the perfect way to include your older children in your new child's birth announcement. Many families choose to include a large photo of the new baby accented with a smaller photo of the baby with it's older siblings. Recipients love being able to see the resemblance that the new baby bears to its older siblings.

Another way to include siblings is to sign the announcement from the proud parents and from the older sibling. Taking these steps to include your entire family in the baby announcement is a great way to make your children feel included!
