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).

    We will definitely be using these for our good friends Couple Shower announcements… since I am the maid of honor, I want every piece of their “pre-wedding fun” to be perfect!

    I’ve got an announcement! We have our second baby arriving in January, and we never did announcements for our first child, Jordan Jane. Would love to right my wrongs the second time around. Don’t know the gender yet, but my mother’s intuition tells me that it’s definitely a boy! All the grandmas and ancient aunties in the family would be so pleased to get announcements for the next one.

    I’ve got an announcement…we’ve moved! It’s been official for almost an entire month but i’m too exhausted with packing, unpacking, laundry, cleaning, demo, reno, wall-to-wall, laminate, paint, lighting, window treatments, swim lessons, packing for vacation, thinking about “back-to-school”, did I mention work?, that I haven’t even THOUGHT about announcements. I must say, this would rock!!

    I’VE GOT AN ANNOUNCEMENT! Technically I don’t at the moment, but I would love to adopt a dog and announce that (since kids aren’t in the picture in the near future).

    “I’VE GOT AN ANNOUNCEMENT!” My baby was born in April and I was in the same boat as the two of you, do I send announcements out or not? Baby Isla Skye wants the world to know she’s here!
