**WINNER: random.org #12, congrats Christine! Winner has been emailed. Thanks to all who entered and thanks again to Poppin Prints!**
Welcome to Poppin Prints! They make photo announcements, invitations and personalized stationary. I was lucky enough to be able to design some for Ryan’s birth announcement and was sent them for review. They are SO many cute designs to choose from, I had to email a couple to my mom to help me narrow it down. They were customizable too–I could choose whatever text I wanted to go on them. Plus, they say that if you don’t see what you need you can just give them a call and they’ll try to make it for you! Now that is customer service!
I picked the boy announcements called Woodstock Blue:
I have a thing for blue and brown together and thought this picture of Ryan in the brown bear suit matched perfectly! And.. love those 2 little duckies at the top! There’s also a larger image of a duck on the back of the card that is super cute. There are phrases you can pick from, but I wrote my own. It’s a lyric from a Dave Matthew’s Band song, which has special meaning to my husband and I. It reads, “With each moment, the more I love you…” (awwwwwwwwWWWW) and then the bottom of the card has all his birth stats and says “with much joy and love, Steve & Emily Dickey” There is a basic template on the card for you, but it’s 100% interactive and you can change it however you’d like.
You also have the option of cardstock: metallic, heavy matte (that’s what I got), or for a small extra charge you can get elegant linen. I love the cards, I think they look great and the paper is high quality. It looks exactly like how I designed it on their site! And no worries if you can’t make up your mind, you can save your design and go back to it later.
This is another design I love and almost chose, but thought it wasn’t “fancy” enough for a birth announcement. I’d love it in the future for a birthday invitation or something!!
