I believe that birth announcements are about as close as graphic design gets to fine art. Birth announcements are pieces which are designed from the heart with very little in-process critiquing done by the client.

And you can’t love a client, and wish to do right by them, any more than you can a new-born baby.

Allan Peters has done right by his client with his beautiful design of this card announcing the birth of his son. Printed 2 over 1 on 190 pound blotter paper this piece makes it clear that this kid is going to get all the love he deserves and that his parents are going to sweat the details.

And the blotter paper may be indicative of things to come.

You can see more of these pieces here and here.
