Gentle online birth card with soft lettering

Announcing a birth without printing anything

An online birth card is an announcement you share by link, so the news reaches everyone on the day itself instead of a week later. Nobody waits for the printer. This design keeps the tone soft and unhurried, which is usually all new parents have the energy for.

Pale blue tones sit under a slightly deeper shade, with a sturdy serif carrying the name and the details in the same calm rhythm. There is no glitter and no cartoon. It reads gently without being babyish, which means it still looks right pinned to a colleague’s screen.

Send the link from the hospital bed or the sofa, whichever comes first. Family and friends open it to congratulate you in the guestbook, look through the photos you added and see when visits are welcome, so you are not answering the same question twenty times. Looking for something with more colour? Our other online birth cards go further.

Frequently asked questions

How quickly can we send it?

Ten minutes. Name, date, weight and a photograph go in, and the link is ready to share with everyone at once.

What can family and friends do with it?

They leave a message of congratulation, look at the photos on the page and read when you would like visitors. Their messages collect in one place, which is easier to read back later than a hundred separate texts.

Is the design too quiet for a first child?

Quiet here means uncluttered rather than dull. The colour sits in the background while the name gets the space, so the card carries plenty of warmth without a single cartoon animal.

Can we change the colours?

Colours, typefaces, photographs and every line of text are yours to adjust. Have a look at the portfolio if another design suits you better.

Is it cheaper than printed cards?

You skip the print run, the envelopes and the stamps. What matters more in the first week is that you can add a photograph later without sending anything twice.
