In Preparation

We received a gift the other day from Hubs' company. It was a food basket with all sorts of treats and the note from his boss read:

Congratulations on the expansion of your family! Alison, I hope you find something in the basket that will fit your cravings. Maybe share with Hubs.

I immediately sat down and wrote his boss a thank you note. But then it hit me that we'll be getting baby gifts in the next several months and my personal stationery just seemed a little too much.

So I went on an online hunt for some cute baby ones. Found some I liked, but they were very expensive! So I just modified the designs on my own and here is what I came up with. I didn't have anything else to do Sunday afternoon, so I made a note card and address label for both a boy and girl. I can get them printed at my fave online printer for less than HALF the cost of the others I found.

So Little Bird will have his/her own stationery right from the very start.
