I’ve recently been using minted for all of my stationery needs. I outfitted my girlfriend’s entire bridal shower with stationery from minted and found our amazing Christmas cards for 2015 from minted as well! Their growing selection of artwork and paper choices make them my go-to for paper goods and I always receive rave reviews from those I am sending to. Naturally I plan to turn to minted for this upcoming babe’s birth announcements as well. I am especially drawn to announcements that put the baby as the focal point with a very simple design and beautiful fonts, yet I still can’t decide which one I’ll use: either a photograph-centered announcement, a sweet woodland design, or one without a photo at all + a photo magnet? I’ve rounded up my top 12 favorites– not an easy feat considering there are over 600 birth announcement designs!– in case you are also on the quest for the cutest birth announcements. I highly recommend minted for the extra convenience of free self-addressed and return-addressed envelopes, which is absolutely essential for new mamas. Plus, the addressing isn’t boring– it can match the announcement itself! Seriously that is any stationery lover’s dream. I’d love to hear your thoughts on your favorite from roundup above. Tell me which birth announcements you think we should send out for this baby girl!
