Using chalk and a chalkboard gives the message a cute, childish air, which is perfect when announcing a baby. If you have a flair for art, you can go on and decorate the chalkboard and make your message look absolutely beautiful.

Crown your head with a rainbow coloured floral crown to make it all the more ethereal.
There are so many wonderful ways to announce your precious new baby to the world. After all the grief that you have faced, this new spark of life will breathe a new beginning into your family.
