Baby Thank You Notes

Amongst the things that I'm trying to finish before the new baby arrives in less than a month (t-30 days tomorrow!) is putting together some thank you notes for the new baby. Not that I'm expecting gifts (we don't really need anything), but people always seem to send something when a new baby is born and it is nice to have some thank yous on hand for such occasions. I'm trying to get a supply of about 25 on hand, so I'm doing them in batches of 5, which seems manageable to me. Plus I wanted each batch of 5 to be a little different so the notes aren't so hard on my cardstock supplies. The rest of the cards will feature Fox and Friends, which is coming in my order on Monday (yippie!).

So here are the first two styles. I hope you'll forgive the lower quality of the photos--I was feeling lazy and didn't want to set up the photo tent. It is getting harder for me to do a lot a bending and photographing with the tent requires a bit. :)


The first one I just made up out of my head and the second one is CASEd almost directly from Julie Davison. Her original was a congrats card, and was 6x3, but I like standard sizes, so I resized it and changed the sentiment.
