I am constantly scouring in the internet for creative baby announcements, and I absolutely love this modern card, designed by Kate Stoltz. I really like the incorporation of baby Gemma’s footprint and the wrap-around ribbon tying the trifold together. And how sweet is that sleepy picture? Have you seen any other cute announcements? I’d love to see!
Golden Baby Announcement
If you’ve seen some of the nursery inspiration I’ve posted so far, you can likely guess that the color gold will have a huge influence in all things related to our baby girl! When I saw these golden calligraphy baby announcements by Val Marie Paper on Oh So Beautiful Paper, I swooned. I fell in love with Val’s stationery skills back here.
Favorite pieces of these announcements: First, the name Vivi Mae is so darn cute (we’ll share our name soon!); secondly, that baby is adorable; third of all, that calligraphy by Katherine Holly is amazing. I cannot wait for my two upcoming calligraphy workshops!

Newlywed Christmas Cards
This will be our first Christmas as a married couple, and I love newlywed holiday cards. I scoured the internet and have featured some of my favorites below. I am having such a hard time picking one though! Which do you like the most?
Rifle Paper Co. Holidays
Nobody says “Feliz Navidad” or “Happy Birthday” like Rifle Paper Co. My one true obsession in life (but truly), I rarely tell someone “Happy __________” using anything other than a Rifle Paper card. Anna Bond’s unique, artistic representation of holidays, from Halloween to Valentine’s Day, is absolutely perfect. Their New Arrivals? Incredible. I want all of those phone covers please. I even emailed them recently to request they create wall paper. Wouldn’t that be to-die-for? One of their Customer Service Representatives kindly replied and said she’d pass along the suggestion. Fingers crossed, y’all.
Baby Shower Invites + Decor
Often people pick a party theme, then search for the invitation. Stationery lovers may be inclined to reverse that process (i.e. I totally would). While babies aren’t on my brain personally, lots of Sasha’s friends either have kids or are ready to have them soon, so I’ve been on the lookout for good baby shower material. I found these gorgeous three shower invites on Minted, and decided to brainstorm decorations to complement the cards. BHLDN is the ultimate place for cake stands, vases, garlands, etc. Wedding planning is over, but party planning is ongoing!
