A Royal Baby Announcement

We chose to go with a very elegant announcement, using high-end papers and techniques but keeping the design simple and clean. We drew inspiration from the royal family's age-old tradition of placing a golden-framed announcement on a wooden easel within the palace gates to announce the birth to the public. The official announcement is very clean and simple, surrounded by the ornate golden frame, so we worked those elements into our design! The result was a lovely, yet simple announcement printed on cottony white paper with a royal blue ribbon accent.

The bracket-style die cut gives it an ornate flair, and the ridged antique gold envelope liner, seal, and and backing make this announcement fit for a prince!

Finally, we used an off-white envelope with a slight shimmer and a ridged pattern, for one last touch of elegance.

I get a lot of requests for white ink (or a light color ink) to be printed on a dark paper...this requires a specialized printing process...it can sometimes be achieved with thermography (raised ink), we have had success printing gold on dark red and silver on navy, but mostly for a clean crisp print you need to do a foil or letterpress print or engraving, which can get very expensive.

We have done the white on black using a "knockout" print...we print (flood) the entire (white) page with black ink and reverse out the type so the text appears white on black...pretty neat looking if you ask me!
