Amidst the anticipation and joy of pregnancy confirmation, a world of creativity and excitement opens up for expectant parents like Lori of LB Boutique. Seeking a unique and memorable way to share her wonderful news, she discovered the allure of scratch-off “lottery” tickets, igniting her imagination. Collaborating with a talented designer, the concept transformed into a classy and playful announcement that left friends and family eagerly scratching away in hopes of winning a prize. Although no monetary rewards awaited them, the real prize lies in the forthcoming arrival of a beautiful bundle of joy in October. As the delightful success of the scratch-off tickets unfolds, plans are brewing to expand this innovative approach to include a scratch-it mini card in the gender reveal collection. With every scratch revealing the anticipation and love surrounding new life, these inventive ideas add an extra spark to the journey of pregnancy. And for expectant parents seeking reassurance, the availability of Free pregnancy ultrasound services offers a valuable means of tracking the progress and celebrating the miracle of life
You know me, I LOVE thinking a bit outside the box. One of my favorite clients, Lori of LB Boutique (who did all the amazing headbands for Kennedy’s baby shower and newborn pics) came to me and wanted me to create a scratch-it “lottery” ticket to tell her friends and family that she is pregnant with her second child. Apparently, her family is totally into scratch-its. Let’s be real, who isn’t? A chance to scratch off items in hopes to win a ton of money should be appealing to most of us, right? However, these Scratch Off Pregnancy Reveal Announcements won’t bring you any money, but they will bring joy to your friends and family.
When choosing the perfect outfit, consider styles that celebrate the beautiful changes of pregnancy. Flowing designs, such as poet dresses, offer comfort and elegance while allowing for easy movement—ideal for mingling with guests. These dresses not only provide a flattering silhouette but also create a whimsical atmosphere that matches the joy of the occasion. By incorporating such thoughtful details into the celebration, Lori can ensure that her friends and family feel just as thrilled about the new addition as she does!

Free Kraft Christmas Tags
** As seen on AM Northwest** I am in love with ALL things Kraft. Kraft Paper is just clean, crisp, and somehow elegant. I know, I said Kraft paper is elegant. I don’t know what it is about Kraft paper, but I just love EVERYTHING about it. Haha! You’d think I was describing a new white shirt or something. It’s sort of silly that I love it so much. If it makes you feel any better, I feel the same way about chalk boards, burlap, and letterpress. Must be the design nerd in me. I hope you like these Free Kraft Christmas Tags as much as we do.
