Hip custom birth announcements: unique, personal and full of character
The birth of your baby is one of the most beautiful moments of your life. Such a special moment deserves a birth announcement card that is as unique as your family. With much love and attention I design hip birth announcement cards that fit you perfectly, personal, original and with fresh illustrations.
What makes a birth announcement trendy?
A hip birth announcement card can be recognized by originality, trendy details such as soft natural tones, foil print accents or playful typography, and a personal story that refers to your hobbies, pets or a special place. For me, trendy means contemporary and timeless, a design that follows trends today but will still suit you years from now.
Examples of hip birth announcements
Trendy custom birth announcement cards
Every family has its own story. Maybe you want a subtle reference to how you met, or just an illustration in the colors of the baby’s room. Anything is possible as long as it suits you. Because I sketch each birth announcement by hand and digitally refine it, it creates something special: a card that no one else has.
Inspiration and trends 2025
In 2025, you will see many natural colors such as beige, terracotta and soft greens. Foil printing and embossing give names or icons a luxurious sheen. Minimalist line work with lots of white space remains popular. Boho influences such as organic shapes, dried flowers and earth tones are popping up everywhere. Increasingly, an illustrated family portrait takes center stage, including pets. Unsure about a style? I am happy to show examples and think with you.

How does the design process work?
First, we meet without obligation to discuss your wishes via email or video call. Then I work out a first sketch. Then together we’ll provide feedback on colors, typography and illustrations. Once you agree, I create the print-ready file. Finally, I can arrange printing or provide the digital file, depending on your preference.

Frequently asked questions about trendy birth announcements
How does the process work when I want to have a birth announcement card made?
We begin with a no-obligation meeting to discuss your needs via email or video call. Then I make a rough sketch. Based on your feedback, I digitally work the design into a final version, after which I deliver a print-ready PDF.
What exactly do I get delivered?
You will receive a digital preview and a print-ready PDF or the complete printing. Optionally, I can also provide envelopes, closure stickers, birth sign or a matching poster.
How long will it take to complete the ticket?
On average, the entire process takes three to six weeks, depending on the complexity of the design and the amount of feedback rounds.
Can I have a birth announcement card with a portrait of our family or pets?
Sure. Whether it’s a family silhouette, your dog, or an imaginative scene, I’m happy to create an illustration that suits you.
Can the colors be matched to the baby’s room?
Yes, I take the color palette of the baby’s room or other desired hues as a starting point, so that the result matches your interior beautifully.

Can I receive a proof?
Yes, after the final design I will make a digital proof for free. A printed proof is available at cost.
