Hip Thank You Notes By LJohnson on - Updated Oct 15, 2011

After recently having a baby, I have a ton of Thank-You cards to send out to everyone showering my daughter with gifts. Being the creative being that I am, I personally designed her birth announcements in a trendy pink/brown polka-dot theme. Being the old-fashioned girl that I am, I wanted personalized Thank You cards to match the look and feel of the birth announcements with minimal time required on my part (hey, I just had a baby!).

My requests were answered as I was browsing through Target and their stationary aisle. Right there in front of me were the perfect Thank You notes, baby pink with darker pink, brown and white polka dots, a little boarder of brown with tiny white dots (looks like a thin ribbon) and the bottom inch is brown with "Thank You" in white script.

Although they would have been great straight out of the package, I decided to embellish them slightly by hot gluing buttons to each card (2 per card, the buttons were exactly the size of the polka-dots). PERFECTION! They turned out great and were a wonderful way to express the appreciation and gratitude I felt toward people rejoicing in my daughter's birth.

I love that you took both the time AND the thought to personalize these lovely thank you cards. I imagine everyone receiving a Thank You, was both touched and pleased.

Too cool! You got the best of both worlds, and extra time with your baby.

Aww, how cute. Congratulations on your baby. It took me forever to send out my announcements, haha. I should have went somewhere else to check on thank you cards after my shower but I had limited places and my cards sucked lol. This are great though!!!
