Or a full-bleed photo, or no photo at all
Most single-photo designs carry a greeting: Hello World, Welcome Baby, It’s a Girl, It’s a Boy, She’s Here or He’s Here, or your own words. The Blank card is just your photo, and the typeset designs need no photo.

The back
A birth announcement, already written
Every card starts with this note. Each one fills in its own name, and you can keep it, edit it or write your own.
The message it starts with
Dear [RECIPIENT], Our little one has arrived, and we are completely smitten. We can't wait for you to meet the newest member of the family. With love, [YOUR NAME]
When to send
Send in the first two months
Most families send once the name, the date and a photo everyone will love are settled. Later is fine: a card at three months is still news to everyone who has not met the baby.

Wording
What to write on a birth announcement
A greeting on the front, the name and the date, and a line or two on the back. A few to start from.
- Hello World
- The card’s default: the first thing anyone says to a newborn.
- Welcome Baby
- For a card that goes out before the name is settled.
- It’s a Girl
- The classic, one tap away. It’s a Boy is beside it.
- She’s Here
- Quieter than the classic, and it fits every design at full size.
