Babies, babies, babies! It seems everyone is adding a new little bundle of joy to their family. If you or someone you know is celebrating the miracle of birth, we’ve got the perfect way to help you celebrate!

First, start by sending one of our adorable New Baby or Congratulations eCards. Then, use one of these ideas to help share in their happiness:

Welcome to the Family Basket

Find items that will allow each member of the family to interact with the new baby personally. Some ideas include: a copy of a siblings favorite baby book for them to read to the baby, a comfy blanket for mom or dad to snuggle with the new baby or a toy themed around a family member’s hobby or interest. Gift wrap each one and write a message saying why you selected this item for the person. For a cute final touch, have a family photo laminated, and possibly enlarged, and include that in the basket.

Bath Time for Baby & Mommy

Create a gift basket that includes everything need for the new baby’s bath time. Give mom some extra pampering by including some her favorite bath time products as well. Wrap it all up in baby bath tub or a shower caddy for an extra whimsical touch.

Baby Crafts

If you’re the crafty type, make a personalized baby decor kit. Not only will it be a heartfelt expression, it will be something the family treasures forever. To get you started here are some ideas:

• Create a wall hanging with the baby’s name on it.
• Alter some picture frames to match or decorate a baby lamp.
• Create a custom toy bin or basket.

Emergency Essentials

Often overlooked at showers, a gift of emergency essentials will be a much-appreciated gift. There are many kits already put together that you can buy and add a personal touch to, or you can create your own.

Soft & Cuddly

Everyone loves the feeling of something soft and cuddly, and babies are no different. Get together the softest and most cuddly blankets, toys and clothes you can find. Wrap them up in a super fabulous diaper bag, and you’ll have the perfect gift. Not only that, you’ll always be on the new parents’ minds when they reach for their baby’s favorite blanket!

The Original Card

…could be easily improved upon. Being the hard-working, dedicated employee that I am, I immediately set out to make said improvements. With five minutes and some Photoshop work, I transformed this somewhat decent card into a masterpiece of modern e-card artistry. I give you THE BLACK DRAGUN!!

I think we can all see the vast improvement that has been made. If you wish to support my endeavor, feel free the send the card in its updated form!
