A birth announcement is so much more than just an announcement; it is a warm and loving welcome for your little one. My designs are all about telling a story, and a skyline in the background adds an extra touch of magic. It not only creates atmosphere, but also brings a sense of 'home' to the card.
A skyline full of memories
Many parents like to choose a birth announcement with a skyline of their city or village. It is a nod to the place where their child was born or where they found their home together. Maybe it is a recognizable city, a small village, or even a combination of several places that are special to you. And did you know that I sometimes also incorporate the parental home in the skyline? As a silhouette, just like the rest of the skyline, with a detail here and there. This way it remains subtle, but still very recognizable and personal!
Your card, your story
Every skyline I draw has a unique character. Sometimes I work with existing silhouettes, sometimes I mix different recognizable elements into an atmospheric whole. What always comes first is that the skyline plays a supporting role. The real leading role is for the illustration in the foreground: a sweet illustration / scene with often a child who is already curiously looking into the world. In this way it remains a birth announcement and not a moving message, but one with a piece of home incorporated into it.
A card that you will cherish forever
Birth announcements are small works of art that are often kept for years. A skyline makes it extra personal and timeless: a beautiful memory of those special first days and the place where your adventure began...
Would you like to have a birth announcement designed with your own skyline, maybe even with a silhouette of your house? Feel free to take a look at my website and discover all the possibilities!
