I’m the first to admit that it can be easy to substitute email for proper stationary thank you cards, announcements, and invitations. But there is nothing like the feel of quality card stock and the grooves of a quality letterpress. That’s why I’ve found the best thing ever for new moms.

Letterpress birth announcement and keepsake


Sweetest Moments is a great custom baby keepsake. It is equal parts love letter, letterpress birth
announcement, and Mother’s Day card, and the 11×14 size makes it perfect for framing.

Choose your fonts, colors, and photo (I am quite fond of
the “fresh” palette) and soon you’ll get an email proof in the mail in case like me, the things in your head rarely turn out as planned. And you’ll want this one to do just that. After all, it’s a keepsake. You’re going to get to gaze at it for years.

At $60 for a completely custom order it’s not a bad price. In fact, save the money from buying letterpress baby announcements, and just spend it on the single one you know won’t end up in the recycle bin or back of a drawer. –Eva
