The scan as a starry nursery
Turn a 12-week scan photo into a dreamy nursery mural of drifting stars and a soft crescent moon, baby's name written across the top in gentle script.
Use this promptThe dog meeting the baby
Our golden retriever gently sniffing the new baby in a cot, late-afternoon light through linen curtains, a genuinely nervous tail-wag — wholesome family moment.
Use this promptGrandparents holding the bump
My mum's hands resting over the bump next to my hand, soft living-room light, announcement text reading 'Baby due in July' in a warm hand-lettered style.
Use this promptThe cosy nursery scene
A tiny wicker Moses basket under a hanging mobile of paper clouds, soft pastel bunting strung across the wall, pale afternoon light — a shower invite you'd pin on the fridge.
Use this promptQuestions parents actually ask
Six to eight weeks before the due date is the sweet spot in the UK. Earlier than that, and diaries are still blank. Later than that, and the mum-to-be is nesting, not partying. If it's a surprise shower, aim for eight weeks so partners have time to quietly RSVP without her spotting a half-written card on the kitchen counter.
It's completely fine to send the card before the name's announced. Go with 'Welcome, little one', 'Congratulations on your new arrival', or simply 'To the whole family'. You can always follow up with a second note once the name's landed. A lot of first-time parents don't decide until they've actually met the baby, so 'no name yet' cards are genuinely the norm.
Yes. Upload a photo (the scan, the couple, or a staged balloon shot) and write the prompt around pink or blue sparkles, confetti bursts, or the classic cake-cut reveal. The shareable link works in any family group chat, so the reveal can land on everyone's phone at the exact same second rather than trickling out as screenshots.
The tone's usually calmer. Parents on their second aren't shocked by the whole 'there's a human here now' thing, so the card can lean into the sibling reaction, the hand-me-down muslins, or a gentle 'welcome to the chaos'. If you want to acknowledge the older sibling too, that's the move — second-timers often say the older child feels more overlooked than the new baby.
That's the whole point, honestly. New parents are often deliberately offline for the first weeks, so a printed card through the letterbox is the thing that actually reaches them. We post UK-wide from £4.99, and the envelope lands without pinging a phone or interrupting a feed. If you'd rather send it digitally, the shareable link works in WhatsApp or iMessage without either of you needing an account.
UK printed cards are posted within one working day of ordering and typically arrive in two to four working days via Royal Mail. Order before 2pm and it ships the same day. If it's for a hospital visit or a christening weekend, give yourself a five-day buffer and you'll be fine.
Upload a photo, write a line or two, preview it free. Post it UK-wide or send the link to the family group chat.
