{Unique Birth Announcements for Boys}

What makes a birth announcement unique? First of all, the photos. Lots of photos. Parents love to share photos of their new bundles of joy, and friends and family love to receive them. Using multiple photos on birth announcements has become very popular among parents looking for a unique, eye-catching design. Using photos of baby’s hands, feet, or the top of his head allow you, the proud parent, to share every sweet detail of your sweet baby boy. Our Dylan birth announcement, featured at right, is the perfect example of using photos of hands and feet for a unique announcement.

Color choice also makes a birth announcement unique. Gone are the days of using the traditional blue and white color scheme for each and every baby boy. Blue and brown, green and brown, or blue and black color schemes are the new trend. Pairing blue or green with a muted color such as brown or black allows the main focus of the birth announcement to be on your baby boy, and also allows the unique details of the birth announcement-- such as a monogram, font, or shape-- to stand out. Our Aiden, Liam, Maddox, and William boys announcements are perfect examples of this.

Finally, wording is important in making your birth announcement unique. Adding a quote to a birth announcement, or an interesting opening or closing line can separate one birth announcement from the rest. Combining fonts to show emphasis in wording also adds emotion to the announcement. We have provided some sample birth announcement wording on our site as an example, but feel free to use your own as well!
