Well, it seems to be true that I either write a few posts in a row or I don't write any for ages....Being more consistent should have been on my new year resolution list. But life and kids get in the way....
Anyway, this was probably worth the wait.
One of my really good friends, Sina, is having her third girl in a few weeks. I had no idea what to get her, because, really, what do you get for someone who already has 2 other girls??? I am sure she still has things in her cupboards that her girls never wore or wore a couple of times.....and toys, really? I don't think she would appreciate the clutter :-)
Well, I thought I would make her baby announcement cards. So I asked her what colours she would like and what kind of image and this is what I came up with! I was IN LOVE! I said to her that if I was pregnant I would think twice before actually giving them to her. I liked them that much! Well, seeing as I am not pregnant, and even if, there would be a 50% 50% chance of needing the pink and purple colours, I reluctantly gave her the cards.......I was super happy she liked them! I just hope she gets the time to actually mail them! It's busy enough with 2, let alone adding a baby to that mix.
And here is the inside:

They truly are beautiful and even better (if it's possible) in real life. The addresses have been written Renate so there is a good chance these beauties will get sent to the happy recipients. :)
