Some webpages create instant hapiness just by looking at it. Like for example Studio Koekepeer. All those bright colours and nice designs. All illustrations are created by Studio Koekepeer and that’s how their first collection called ‘It’s a Beautiful Day’ originated. Beautifull tablewear, textiles and stationary items. Besides these things Studio Koekepeer also designs birth and wedding cards. If you are looking for unique tablewear you have to take a look at their webpage. From October this year everything will also be available at the V&D in Utrecht, so you have to be a little pacient.

Birth and wedding cards can be ordered online.

We have a great wall sticker of a tree in our daughters’ bedroom. This used to be our own bedroom, and right now the tree is decorated with hip birdhouses and fits into the girls’ bedroom. Wallstickers are always great for brightening up childrens’ bedrooms (and other spaces). That’s why I think it’s brilliant that Lief, Leuk & Eigen have made it possible to order a wallsticker of your birthcard. You can order your own design or one from the standard collection. Choose your size, Small, Medium, or Large for a spectacular impression of 1.30 x 1.30 meters! These wallstickers are full colour and made of a shiny material, so it works best on a plain wall and makes the nursery special immediately. An eyecatcher and very personal as well.

On behalf of Lief, Leuk en Eigen I can give a discount of 15% on the standard collection of wallstickers. If you order the birthcards of Lief Leuk & Eigen you even get a 50% discount on a wallsticker in size small! Fill out the code HHmuur1.

As we speak my friend could be having her baby. She is calculated today to be exact. So exiting! If you ask me, the best part about newborns is the card. It’s almost always selected with the greatest care. I always like it even more when they put a picture on it of the miracle of life itself. It’s like a sneak preview for the moment you visit to see the baby. Those little babies are so small and so pure. I love it. I found this webpage called Leuke Fotokaartjes you can order birthcards with a picture in 6 different styles. Simone Janssen, a photografer, works together with 6 designers to make sure you find the perfect card. On the page you can find various examples. If you are pregnant and looking for a birthcard with a picture. This is the place to be!

Leuke Fotokaartjes has a great offer for all our Hip & Hot readers who are pregnant or planning to be in the near future. If you order the birthcards at www.leukefotokaartjes.nl and do that before August 1st of this year, you get a free canvas of 40 x 40 cm from one of the pictures or the front of your cards. Notice: the picture can be made later, you have until July first of next year for that.

I found another beautiful webpage with cards again! These cards can be described best as ‘ hip in simplicity’ Or less is more. They are simple but in a stylish way. Such original ideas. Like a clothes-line of photos. Or a heart made from fingerprints. Names written in the sky by an little airplane. Pure like love should be. All these beautiful things are available at mooi.ook. Besides wedding cards you can also find beauties of birthcards. And adoptioncards. As important as the others. With or without pictures. An old house, stork, birds in pink or blue, all too cute! Also very cute twins cards by the way.
Mooi.ook gives away a tricot sling when you order 100 cards and envelopes. A sling is perfect to carry around your little one in the first few months, I think there isn’t a more precious gift to receive than this!

While I am already looking forward to my sons’ first birthday I jump back into time to imagine how it was looking for a suitable birth card. It wasn’t that easy at first, because there is so much to find on the internet. We ended up making something ourselves. Not exactly what we had in mind, because I delivered 2 weeks early and we weren’t ready yet. So we had to make something in the little time we had. We like the results though. But just picking out one from the people that are really good at making the designs would have been easier. I already wrote about some great webpages where you can pick out your birth card and today I found another one. So if you are pregnant or thinking about it, take a look at Snoesjes while you’re shopping. Snoesjes is all about bright, fresh designs with hip patterns like polkadots.

Besides, Snoesjes has a great offer for pragnent Hip & Hot readers! Everyone who orders before May 16th of this year gets a 5% discount on the entire order (so also on the envelopes and freight) with code HH2011.

But we also have something to win! Tell us the coolest babyname you can think of that isn’t on Snoesjes webpage yet. Please fill out your answer on this form. We can pick out 3 winners who can order a custommade card without the extra design costs of €75,00! This contest will last until May 16th, 2011.
It starts with paper…
That’s the slogan on Siscard‘s webpage.
It’s about something beautiful and special you want to share with everyone.  And it’s always nice to put some postcards in the mail!
An issue with sending cards is that you had to put them in those dull white envelopes. Nowadays you can pick out a color, that makes it a lot better. But it could be even more fun if you can pimp your envelopes with nice closing stamps! Licking two envelopes to close them isn’t that much of a problem, but at 50 pieces, you might reconsider.
These stickers are really nice, with prints of roses or biscuits on them. They will get more attention of the receivers. And, besides nice closing stamps, Siscard also has nice coasters. Ok, I can hear you thinking, what’s nice about coasters? That was the exact thing I was thinking. But when I saw the coasters with prints of biscuits and in heart shapes, I understood. Great! I’ve never seen them before. It’s great decoration, besides serpentines and baloons.

We can give away 2 sets of: 10 coasters and 6 sheets of closing stamps! If you would like to win them, please answer the following question correctly and fill out this form. The question is:Â What is the name of the birth card with the print of baby laundry hanging out to dry next to the cows? This competition lasts until April 25th, 2011.
Is there anything nicer than the birth of your child? You want to have everything well organised, like the birthcards! Jakima cards has a big variety of birth cards! All cards have a different look, so there will always be a card that suits you. They also have a lot of cards for twins. The main object of these cards are always babies, prints, animals or your own picture. What I especially like about these cards is that you can even choose your own font and they are available from 20 pcs.
The illustrations on the cards are all very happy. The inside is as colorful as the outside. And if you would like to have the card printed on canvas it’s also possible. AÂ nice idea for the nursery.
New! Jakima also sells postcards. So if you would like to send your wishes to someone who just had their baby, or a birthdaycard, Valentines card or just because. From 1,49 euro you can already order a card that will be send for you. 
Want to send your own card? We have 4 codes with a value of 7,50 euros each to give away! You can win it by answering the following question on this form: How many cards does Jakima sell in her postcard webshop? This competition will last until April 21st, 2011.
