Soft, classic, and beautifully understated, the Sutton Motif Birth Announcement features our elegant monogram motif paired with refined typography. The design feels polished and feminine without excess ornamentation — timeless in the most effortless way.
The monogram sits with quiet confidence, creating a balanced and composed introduction. Sutton feels traditional, yet fresh — a beautiful choice for families drawn to simplicity with meaning.
Printed on luxurious 120# Italian laid paper in a soft creamy white, the 3.5 x 4.875" size is intimate and heirloom-worthy — a keepsake scale designed to be preserved.
Hand engraving is available for those who appreciate added depth and richness in ink tone. The engraved impression creates a subtle raised finish that enhances the heirloom character of the announcement. Flat printing offers a crisp and equally elegant alternative.
For families who would like to include a photograph, a traditional wallet-size photo can be tucked into the envelope alongside the announcement — a sweet detail loved ones can frame or keep.
Sutton is especially lovely for girls and carries beautifully into calling cards, personal stationery, christenings, graduations, and future milestones.
