Birth Announcements?
2 questions....
1) Where else can I look for them besides Tiny Prints? We're having newborn photos professionally taken, so I'll be uploading a picture from the session and printing them from whatever site we choose.
2) Who did you send birth announcements to? I have address labels made up for Christmas cards that I use every year but also have address labels for all the women who were invited to my baby shower. I feel like I'm leaning towards sending them to the Christmas card crew, which is mostly immediate family and close friends/co-workers. If I sent them to everyone on both lists, I'd be sending out close to 150 which I feel is overkill (not to mention $$$ with the actual announcements and postage!)

Re: Birth Announcements?
I used shutterfly. They came out great. I went off my wedding list so it was more than the usual Christmas cards.

Zazzle, vistaprint, shutterfly, snapfish. Your photog may have a reasonable birth announcement too.
As for who to send them to, we just did close friends, immediate family and close family friends. To be honest when I get them from acquaintances it almost looks lik they're fishing for a gift.

I used simply to impress ( I think that's the name). I had a living social deal. This time I'll do the same and use whatever deal I can find at the time.

Im going to order a digital design on etsy and print them on 4x6 photo paper at CVS. They always have great photo sales, it's very reasonable and Staples sells 4x6 envelopes. I've been doing custom invitations like this for years.

I feel like if you were at the shower and/or sent a gift you should get a birth announcement.

Save your $$$ and check out the walgreens, walmart and cvs sites.
Just got 40 birth announcements for $20 on walmart.com and that includes shipping. Its cheaper if u pick it up at the store even
I will never use shuttefly ever again its highway robbery the shipping fee alone is exorbitant
