Your precious new arrival is a real charmer, but they probably haven’t mastered the fine art of letter-writing. Luckily, they have you to craft an online birth announcement card that makes a great first impression. With stationery-inspired design templates from Paperless Post, it’s easy to create a unique digital card that celebrates this exhilarating milestone.

How do you share a birth announcement?

A casual social media post might be your first thought to share your exciting news, but something as important as a birth announcement deserves a stylish celebration. With Paperless Post, our fully customizable and thoughtfully-designed online cards make a splash as you show off your new pride and joy and share a piece of your excitement with others. Your digital birth announcement is delivered directly to your recipients via email or text message, coming to life as soon as they open it.

Online birth announcement templates

If you’re still in the process of brainstorming, you’ve come to the right place. Our birth announcement ideas help you create a just-right online card that recipients will be overjoyed to receive.

Choose a baby birth announcement bursting with hand-painted bouquets of spring flowers (perfect for the newest little bud in your life), or pick out a cute design decorated with baby jungle animals, zoo newborns, or other pint-sized creatures. If you prefer something sophisticated, we have an array of tasteful birth announcement cards featuring metallic foil accents and elegant motifs.

How to customize a birth announcement

With our online design tool, you have full control of fonts and layout and can even choose a color scheme to match the hand-knit booties your relatives sent. Or, put Baby front and center with one of our photo cards featuring your newborn’s cutest close-up. List the time, date, and birth weight to share the first details about your little bean.

Who do you send a birth announcement to?

When it comes to sending a birth announcement, the more the merrier! As this isn’t an invitation, your recipient list can stretch far and wide. Once you’ve got your design finalized and your details in place, sending your announcement is a breeze. Sync your contact list, or if you’ve used one of our online invitations before, simply select the recipients you want to send your birth announcement to.

There may be some sleepless nights on the horizon, so let us help make planning the next big milestones easy. Have your friends over to bask in your child’s presence with sip and see invitations, and when the time comes, gather everyone around for Baby’s baptism, bris and baby naming ceremony, 100 day celebration, or first birthday.
