Fab Freebie: We’ve Got An Announcement

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***

Here’s our announcement: people are awesome! We’re still amazed by all of the congrats, love, and generosity that have been flung our way since Clara’s birth. Seriously, we just can’t say “thank you” enough. But perhaps this week’s giveaway counts as one way that we’re showing our gratitude… by paying it forward a bit for you guys at home.

See, we hadn’t really ever planned to do formal birth announcements for Clara. But then our email buddy Mollie from The Paper Cafe (who we befriended way-back-when during this address stamper giveaway) insisted that we accept her baby gift to us: complimentary announcements from her vendor Take Note! Designs. We happily accepted on the condition that she (and Sarah from Take Note!) do another giveaway with us so our readers could share in the freebie fun… and thus today’s freebie was born. Which is awesome because, well, the designs are awesome.

So one of you is gonna win $100 towards any order from Take Note! Designs (plus everyone else will be scoring a discount on Thursday!). Even if you don’t have a baby to announce, you could grab a Benjamin’s worth of invitations, thank you notes, holiday cards, or other greetings. And if you’re anything like us, you’ll have a rough time picking out just one design.

Take Note Other Designs

We finally did manage to agree on a design for our big Clara announcement, and here’s how it all turned out (thanks again to our friend Dana Duncan for taking such a sweet picture of our then one-week-old little girl).

    And we haven’t even told our parents yet so we’re not “technically” announcing it…..right???

    I’ve got an annoucement … my son will graduate in May after twelve years of homeschooling. He’ll be receiving a accreditated diploma and if all goes as we expect, and as it has for his previous high school years, with honors. We are so proud! And … come May, I’ll be unemployed from the best job I’ve ever had, so I’m proud and just a little sad!

    I’m hoping for this eggo to be preggo sometime soon – and, assuming that I succeed soon, and that we’re at the telling-people stage by Christmas (very likely since we already know we won’t be able to wait too long once we know), I’d love to send out a sweet holiday card with us with our hands on my belly. :)
