Hello Halo
I just finished making birth announcements for my grandaughter her parents have not had a chance to have professional photos taken yet so I used my camera for some quick shots. Needless to say there is a reason we pay professionals to take photos especially of infants after about 50 shots I finally got one I liked. You would think my battle was over but then printing at home it was almost impossible to get her coloring to print out correctly. I gave up on trying to get her hair color correct (a sandy auburn). Making the actual annoucements were a breeze I used scrap paper , ribbon and lace ,MS lattice punch and a flower punch. This 2 pocket card uses very little paper and is kind of a mini version of these annoucements I made a while back for a friend but not quite as substantial . The pattern for the annoucements only takes a 5 1/2 x 10 1/2 piece of paper, 2 score lines at 3 1/2 and 7 ,two cuts a couple of folds and you are done. If you would like the complete instructions check here. Thanks for dropping by Alicia
