Sometimes in this busy life of ours, we are tempted to take shortcuts, aren't we?  Email has taken over from snail mail in many cases but that only makes it extra special when we get a personal note in our letterboxes.  Imagine how much more special that note would be if it was personalised with a photo.

Our personalised Baby Thank You Cards are perfect for saying thanks in an intimate and very special way. 

Thank you cards make it simple to acknowledge the love, support and gifts you receive on the birth of your baby.  

Style your baby thank you cards to reflect your own personal taste or carry on the theme and colouring of the christening or baby shower.

This one is stunning in the purity of black and white and has been designed around the gorgeous photo.  It is clean and lovely in its simpliciity.

This thank you card is very different.  It features more photos of your baby and you will notice that the colours have been chosen to match those in the baby's bonnet in the main photo.

Both designs are stunning and will be kept with all those other special mementos for a lifetime.

Do something special when you are thanking your friends and family.  After all, they went to a lot of effort to select a gift for you and your child.  Give them a thank you worth doing with a personalised photo baby thank you card.

We recently received this email from a Sunrise Creations customer with quite a common question. Who should receive a wedding announcement?

I love you wedding announcements, and I can’t wait to have one made using photos from our wedding. I’m just not sure who to send one to? Guests from the wedding? People who were not invited? Friends who were unable to attend the wedding?

Thanks for your help!

Thanks for your question. Generally a wedding announcement is not sent to guests who attended the wedding. Wedding announcements are sent to guests who were unable to attend your wedding ceremony, or to friends, family and acquaintances who were not invited but may be interested in hearing your wonderful news and seeing some photos of your wedding day. A great option is to double up your wedding announcement as a wedding thank you card. The same design can be used, but just personalised with different messages.

Wedding announcements are perfect for destination weddings or elopements. You can organise them before you leave and have them sent to your guests before you arrive home. What an incredible surprise for family and friends!

Either way, please do not be concerned about whether you will offend friends not invited to your wedding. People know that weddings are expensive – they will be delighted that you thought of them to send them a wedding announcement!
