Pea Pod Announcements Giveaway

Where do I begin?

First let me introduce you to the busy moms behind the Pea Pod Announcements business:

Heather
Heather founded the business in June 2005. After attending nursing school, she knew there had to be something out there allowing her to stay at home with her babies. Already dabbling in graphic design, it wasn't long before she put her foot in this 'baby announcement' niche. What was started as a part time home based business has expanded into a thriving, full time website. Everyday, she is blessed to build a business she adores and becomes a part of a very special moment in each customer's life. Follow Heather's personal life in her new blog, Mama Behind the Designs.

Susan
Susan joined the company as co-owner in April 2009. She just gave birth to a new baby girl last week! Susan is a nurse by trade but fell in love with stationery a long time ago. If you ever wonder 'when do I send my announcements out, who do I send my announcements to, how do I properly address my envelopes?' - no worries, Susan is very versed in etiquette and if she doesn't know the answer immediately, she will get back to you with an answer! Follow Susan's personal life in her new blog, Schmoozing with Susan.

Judy
Judy, also Heather's mother in law, stepped in to help during the summer of 2006. Each and every order is personally inspected and assured by Judy herself. After the card is deemed Perfect, she then carefully packs and ships each order. The tedious job of labeling each and every card, counting countless envelopes, boxing each order into our signature kraft box and tying delicate bows; it's a long job and Heather is incredibly grateful for the support and commitment her mother-in-law Judy brings to the company.

Now, back to their fabulous stationery designs (oh, and that little giveaway thing I mentioned before) ...



As you can see from this teeny-tiny sampling of the cards, invitations and announcements inside their store, these ladies live up to their mission to be "a small company founded on the basic principle that all things can be stated beautifully."
