Common questions

What do you write on a "bring a book instead of a card" insert?

Ask for a book in place of a card, and ask guests to write a note inside the cover and sign it. That note is the card - and it stays with the baby. Pick one of the three wordings above.

How do I print it?

Print on A4 or US letter. There are four cards to a sheet; cut along the light lines and tuck one into each invitation. Thicker paper or card stock works best.

What should guests write inside the book?

Who they are, the date, and one line to the baby. Our dedication writer has lines for a baby shower if anyone is stuck.
