Sending beautiful birth announcements and baby shower invitations just got easier. Way easier.

Paperless Post has saved my hide on more than one occasion in the last 3 years since they launched. I've used this wonderful service to send digital kids' party invitations, adult party invitations, thank you notes, and yeah, apology notes for not sending a thank you note sooner. We're so excited that they're now launching an extensive collection just for new parents starting today. And we get to be the first to tell you about it! Also? It's gorgeous. The Paperless Post baby collection is as comprehensive as it is beautiful, with 250 (!!) designs that include shower invitations, first birthday invitations, Christening and Baptism announcements, even photo birth announcements. What a great way to get the news out quickly and without spending a zillion dollars. The design partners are impressive: Jonathan Adler, Kate Spade, Boatman-Geller, and Petit Collage to name a few, plus Petit Bateau who is stunning us with their first stationery collection. Here are a few favorites, but wow it's hard to pare down!

I think we're hitting a time in which e-correspondence is increasingly acceptable, especially for busy parents who get credit just for making any effort these days. And especially when the e-cards still seem as thoughtfully selected and beautifully designed as the ones at Paperless Post always do. That said, you can have nearly all the cards printed should you want to go the traditional route with real stamps. Or at least get one, for the baby book. You know, the baby book that you may or may not get around to. Welcome to parenthood! -Liz Check out the new collection of digital birth announcements, shower invitations and more starting today, online at Paperless Post.
