spinoff to holiday card/birth announcement

I want to do my holiday cards and birth announcements on the same card like the OP. I think a lot of the cards and ideas that everyone posted were so cute but really made for an only child. I have a 2 year old daughter and it is important that even though her new brothers stats are on the card that she be a major part of the holiday card too.

Any suggestions. I am having a hard time finding something appropriate and when I try and put his stats and a holiday greeting on the Shutterfly type cards it says I have too much text.

P.S- my DS is not even coming into this world until next Friday but I like to prepare and I am sure things are going to be crazy those first few weeks at home.

TIA

how about you can have a picture of both kids and word it like "X received the best gift of all this holiday season, his/her new baby brother/sister" and then the baby's stats?

That is exactly what I have been trying to fit into the shutterfly type cards and it tells me that I have too much text.

I guess they are made for more of a Merry christmas from the Smith's type text.
It does not help that I am awful at this type of stuff to begin with.Chat Icon
