I’ve been seeing baby announcement subway art printables all over the web, Pinterest and Etsy. Yeah, you could buy one for a baby shower gift or your own newborn, but they’re so easy to make on your own!
You just need a couple little facts about the little baby to get started:
- First and middle name
- Birth date
- Time of arrival
- Weight (lbs and oz)
- Height
- City (optional)
I created mine using Photoshop, but you can also use PicMonkey.com (or even Microsoft Word I suppose). Just start out with a blank white slate (if using PicMonkey, you might have to upload an 8×10 inch JPG). Now just add different fonts for each little baby fact. Separate some of info with fun little dotted and solid lines.
Also, make sure you use colors that would go with the baby’s nursery so the mommy can proudly display it in the room.
Once the design is complete, print it out and trim to fit in an 8 x 10 inch frame.
Wonderful, personalized baby gift that is easy to create and easy on the pocket!
Kathleen says
I LOVE this! My girlfriend is having her first baby in 2 1/2 weeks and I am definitely going to make one for her! I will give it a try in pages since I don’t have photoshop but if I am not happy with that I will try picmonkey. Thanks!
howtonestforless says
Awesome Kathleen. Good luck!
Crystal says
I love this! So cute and precious!
kraftykellie says
adorable!
howtonestforless says
Thanks Kellie 🙂
Antonella @ The Comfortable Home says
Awww very pretty. You’re right, it’s so easy to make! Why spend more money than you have to!
Gretchen says
Ha–I had to click on this (from House of Hepworths) because my 11 year old is busily helping me make one of these for my one week old right now! Yours looks great :). We’re making ours in Paint, by the way–DS’s choice; I probably would have attempted it in photoscape if I were making it.
Seaweed & Raine says
It looks absolutely great! I’ve been wanting to do one of those for my youngest… I think I might have to go and have a crack at it! 🙂
howtonestforless says
Good luck to you! Great gift idea, too!!
Barbara Hughes says
Hi Erin! I love your blog!! We are also from STL….great town! Wanted to see if you have the baby birth announcement as a free printable? I love this idea and would really like to do it for my children! Thanks!
howtonestforless says
Very cool Barbara! Since every baby announcement printable is 100% personalized, I really can’t offer it as a free printable. Are you just looking for a template? Please feel free to email me to discuss: erin (at) howtonestforless (dot) com
Jamie says
This is precious! Any chance you can share what fonts you used in this piece?
howtonestforless says
Thank you! I used Birch, Burlington, Grail, Modern No. 20, Orator and Century.
Alana says
Do you have a photoshop template you could share for this?
Jessica says
I, too, would love a photoshop template to personalize and tweak rather than start from scratch – the blank white page is intimidating to me (crazy, I know, but true!) – you may also like to know that your result was the first google result when I searched “baby stats subway art template” so I was expecting to be able to download a template… anyways, if you are willing to share, please feel free to email me! 🙂 I think you get my email with my comment?
Kathryn welch says
Could you email me this
Amanda says
I’d love a template of this as well if you don’t mind!!
Ana says
I absolutely love this! Will have to try this one! Can this be done on pages? I am new to macbook!?
howtonestforless says
Hmm… I’ve never used Pages before, but I’m sure it would work! It’s basically just setting type at different sizes and fonts. Good luck to you!
Trista says
I would love a template of this if it isn’t too much trouble. Is it Mac compatible? Really want to make this for my bestie who has a little 7 month old girl and who’s partner just left her..I know it would really brighten up her day 🙂
howtonestforless says
Yes, I create all of my printables on a Mac. Sent it to you!
Ryan says
Would you be able to send this template I am just trying to get back into relearning photoshop (not going very well lol .. I did it 27 years ago in high school) and would love to do one like this for our daughters room!
Jess says
You did such a beautiful job on this, I also love the colors that you have chosen! Are you able to send a template or have a link where I could find one? I tried making this on my own but am not so handy in this field, haha!

I am so happy, I can barely contain myself! I do have a question though, I tried opening the file into my photoshop, and for some reason my photoshop isn’t recognizing these particular fonts in the template, specifically the ImprintMT Shadow, Century, OratorSTD and Modern Regular. Do you where I can find your exact fonts, because I love how it looks! Thanks again for everything!
