From my head on photo birth announcements
Even if you do not want to send the announcements out online you can still print them out on the Internet rather than going to a store to buy them. Just use your imagination and your printer filled with ink to design whatever type of new baby announcement that you like. For those of us who have little imagination and little time to try to be creative, there are also professionally designed printable announcements available online. You can even make a professionally designed birth announcement look like it is unique by adding a photograph of your newborn. There are several websites online that allow you to upload your baby photographs and have one added to the announcements.
