BABY THANK YOU CARDS FROM MINTED
After your baby is born, it can be fun to order custom-made cards that feature their adorable smile or name. This way you will have personalized baby thank you cards on hand should a friend or family member stop by over the next year with a surprise gift or toy for your baby boy or baby girl. If you still have cards remaining, send them out as thank yous in response to gifts your child receives for their first birthday. Position the messaging so the card reads as if it were written from your baby, as people will love receiving a personalized thank you note that is so creative. Minted has over 1,000 original designs in countless loveable themes and looks, each designed by a talented independent artist.
SO MANY UNIQUE THEMES TO CHOOSE FROM
Minted’s fold-over new baby thank you cards come in many assorted looks and themes. Easily filter options based on the theme, designs featuring personalized photography, and even the party occasion. As we mentioned, you could opt to send these cards in response to birthday presents or baby shower presents, and the messaging on the cards may differ slightly for each scenario. We even have a collection of foil-pressed baby shower thank you cards. Some popular themes to consider for our thank you cards from your baby include:
- Animals: Choose from correspondence designs featuring baby rabbits, sheep, deer, llamas, and other cuddly animals. You can also choose a theme that follows up on your baby shower theme, so if you had an elephant-themed baby shower, you could order custom elephant cards to send out on your baby’s behalf.
- Floral: Add some color to your notes of gratitude and select designs showcasing tropical flowers, watercolor arrangements of wildflowers, or fall bouquets.
- Moon & Stars: The wonders of deep space are just and magical and mysterious as a newborn child. Pick a card that displays gold foil stars and moons against a navy background that will surely grab your recipient’s attention.
- Nautical: Choose from creative designs featuring whales playing, sailboats on the ocean, and other sea animals such as turtles, sea horses, narwhals, and more.
- Rainbows: Rainbows, sprinkles, and showers are often associated with the arrival of a newborn. Play up this reference with cards that include big bold rainbows and greetings that say “Thanks” in rainbow colors.
- Stork: Shop designs where a stork is flying among the clouds holding a baby suspended in cloth from its beak.

WHAT TO WRITE IN NEW BABY THANK YOU CARDS
Even though the parents will be writing the messaging inside the card, you can have some fun by wording the messaging as if it is coming straight from your baby’s mouth. After all, you are sending personalized stationery created for them, so why not draft a message that reads like it came from their hand? Here are a few pointers when composing your gratitude.
- Address the relationship: If the card is being sent to thank their aunt, cousin, or grandparent, be sure to include their relationship status in the “to” field. For example: “Dear Aunt Catherine”, or “Thank you so much, Grandma.”
- Call out the gift: Reference the gift that was received and explain how you think your baby will use it. For example, “Thank you so much for the Red Sox onesie! I can’t wait to wear it when sitting on my daddy's lap during the next big game.”
- Include a joke: Think of something that might sound funny coming from a baby’s mind. For example: “Next time you are in the neighborhood, stop by and I’ll have some mashed peas waiting for you.”
