Birth announcements are something that women tend to think about after the baby is born. I encourage you to pick out 3 options prior to the birth. This’ll make your decisions that much easier once the baby comes and you’re knee deep in poopy diapers, nursing, trying to get on a schedule and dealing with lack of sleep. Shop around beforehand, it’ll be much easier to make a decision about which one to send out once you’ve narrowed down your choices.
Where to begin? Well, there are several places. You can go to an invitations store that customizes in announcements, but this tends to be pricey. Another option is to go to Target or Michael’s Craft Store and purchase birth announcements then put them together yourself. Lastly, you can go online and upload your images and have them shipped to you. I prefer the latter, and it’s what I did for my first pregnancy. As I am a designer I chose to put my money towards fancier announcements, while I designed the layout and took the photos. The announcements turned out beautiful, but were VERY time consuming, especially as I was trying to work, nurse the baby, and function on very little sleep. Only do this if you are as anal as I am about the look of the announcements.
Photo announcement
Online Photo Cards
Online you can find hundreds of places that will allow you to upload images and place them in a template, then all you have to do is customize the text and order. For the most part, these are on photo paper, not card stock. Here are some great places that all vary in price ($0.28 – $2.00 per announcement) and offer some great designs:

Custom Cards
If you prefer to order your announcements from a shop you’ll get more help and assistance and may have a lot more choices than the online stores. You’ll get what you pay for; they will be more expensive, but will take on a completely different appearance. These will be printed on card stock, resembling a wedding invitation. They tend to come with bows, velum overlays, and can have custom embedded ink. Here are some places in Reno that offer this type of announcement (pricing can start at $2.00 and can go up to $5.00 per announcement):
Scripts Unlimited Calligraphy and Art – 775-233-0682
Paper Moon – 775-827-9933
Name Droppers – 775-826-7101
The Scrapbook Cottage – 775-829-7749
My Birth Announcement~
Make Your Own Cards
Lastly, you have the option of making your own. This is what I did for my first child, and what I’ll probably do again. As previously mentioned, it’s very time-consuming but worth the effort. I ordered inexpensive announcements online and took pictures myself, then I combined my photos in Photoshop and printed them, along with the text, on velum. I cut the photos to the correct size and assembled every announcement, printing addresses on the envelopes to save some time (handwriting can eat up some time!). All in all they turned out lovely and were inexpensive compared to customized versions, costing about $1.50 per card, including postage. For me, this was the way to go and gave me something to do between my son’s 8 pm and 11 pm feedings. There are several places online to order packages of announcements that include envelopes, inserts, velum and ribbon. I purchased my announcements from the first link:
As you can see, there are many options. Take time before the baby comes to determine what you want, then pick some options to save you loads of time after the baby is born. Good luck and happy shopping!
