letterpress baby girl birth announcement in pink and green

i just adore letterpress printing.  it is a little steep, but in my humble opinion, totally worth the splurge...especially for momentous life occasions like weddings and birth announcements.  my friends shannon and carlton just had their second baby girl, and shannon commissioned me to design a sweet birth announcement for their little dear with a pink and green color palette...and letterpress printing.  i just love the final product; it's delicate yet so fresh at the same time!

and you have to see how gorgeous amelia is, too (those lips!).  (photo courtesy of agr photography)

this pink elephant isn't in a room - it's just looking cute atop the announcement.
congratulations shannon, carlton and big sister emma!!!!

    We've been looking for ideas to incorporate a photo of our baby into a letterpress announcement and I love the way this turned out. If you don't mind me asking, how did you secure the photo to the card?
