Meet the New Baby Collection
Friends, I’m very excited to share our newest collection – the Oh Baby! Collection. This sweet collection is a celebration of such a magical time – the birth of a baby.
I was asked if we had any baby cards back in the spring and realized that, no, we didn’t. So I got busy painting… and here’s the results!
The Oh Baby! Collection
I spent a few months working on this special collection and I’m so excited to finally share it with you!
Those baby years are magical. Yes, it’s been a while since I had a newborn (15 years ago to be exact), but I remember those early years to be so special. Time just seemed to slow down and worries and cares seemed to fade into the important little human who joined our family. It is my hope that these cards will celebrate new babies and new parents but a few can also be used for every day times just to tell a friend or family member you love them.
A Peek at Our New Baby Watercolor Note Cards
The watercolor stork and the watercolor world are definitely “baby” specific.
Whilst the other two can be used for every day.
My sweet little teddy bear is ready for a cuddle. Perhaps, the little bear could be used for a get well or a just saying hi card.
I remember my cuddly toys from when I was little – my cottontail bunny and both our kids had luvvies. Conor had doggie, a blanket dog, and John cuddled a floppy dog as a baby and loved sock monkey as he got older.
The last card in the collection is painted buoys. These are inspired by Scituate buoys. I always love the bright colors and I tucked in a little “143” onto one of them. If you don’t know 143 means I LOVE YOU. This could be used for a baby boy or an every day card.
Painting The Collection
Want to see how I painted each one? I have a little video of all except the teddy bear. I’m not sure why I didn’t press record but only got the last bit of sketching him.
Your Support
Your support and encouragement over the years has meant so much to me and my family. We have a couple of more fun things we’ll be launching before the holidays – a new holiday collection and we’re fully stocked with your old favorites of holiday cards (singles and sets and loads of notepads and tea towels). I also have something really fun planned for watercolor enthusiasts and budding creatives, but I can’t share those details just yet.
I hope you love this new baby collection as much as I do. It’s available in our online shop and is heading to our small retailers.
