A baby shower card before, a new baby card after

Send a baby shower card to the parents to be before the shower or on the day, and a new baby card once the baby has arrived. Soft colors suit both, and a photo of the parents or the ultrasound scan makes the card personal. A card is also a kind way to join in when you live too far away to come to the shower.

Hosting the shower yourself? Baby shower invitations are a separate einvitation product with RSVP tracking; these cards are for sending your wishes.

Welcome baby cards for a boy, a girl or twins

For a boy or a girl, use the colors the parents chose for the nursery or the gender reveal: blues for an it's a boy card, pinks for an it's a girl card. If they are keeping it a surprise, go gender neutral with soft yellows, greens and creams. For twins, put both names on the name line and a message like "Double the love!"

Once the baby is home, the best welcome baby card uses the first photo the parents share, with the name, the birth date and the weight. Grandparents can send one to the whole family chat, and coworkers can keep it simple: congratulations, a warm wish and the hope that everyone gets some sleep.

What to write in a baby shower card

A good baby shower card message has three parts: congratulate the parents to be, wish them an easy arrival, and add one warm line about the family they are starting. Two or three short sentences read best on a phone. Funny works for close friends; for a coworker or a boss, keep it warm and simple.

In a new baby card, use the baby's name, welcome them to the world and say something kind to the parents. Writing to a family who just had a boy or a girl? "Congratulations on your baby boy" or "Welcome, little princess" with the name says it all.
