Step 1

Personalise Your Keepsake

Start by creating a keepsake that’s truly yours. Choose from three elegant fonts for your baby’s name, three shimmering foil colours – gold, silver, or rose gold – and a classic card colour in black or white. You can also add a beautiful frame with mount, available in timeless black, white or natural, to make your keepsake ready to display the moment it arrives. Every order includes our gentle inkless print kit, so you can capture your baby’s tiny hands and feet safely and mess-free.

Step 2

Receive your Kit

Just a few days after placing your order, your inkless print kit will arrive at your door. Inside, you’ll find an easy-to-follow instruction flyer, our wonder wipe and magic paper – enough to capture several prints of your baby’s tiny hands and feet. The wipes are non-toxic and safe from birth, so you can create your keepsake with complete peace of mind.

Step 3

Take Your Baby’s Prints

Use the inkless magic wipe and reactive paper provided to capture your baby’s tiny hands and feet. Follow the simple instructions in your kit for best results. When you’re ready, take a clear photo of the prints using your phone camera. Make sure all four corners of the paper are visible in the image – this helps us size the imprints perfectly.

Scan the QR code included in your kit to send us your prints. Then, send a clear photo of your baby’s prints — making sure all four corners of the paper are visible in the image so we can size them accurately.

STEP 5

You’ll receive a digital preview by email to review and approve. This ensures the layout and personalisation are just right, and you’re welcome to request revisions before final production.

step 6

We Create Your Keepsake

Once we’ve received your prints, we’ll get to work transforming them into your chosen design – complete with your selected font, foil colour, card colour, and any frame option. From there, you can simply sit back and relax while we handcraft your personalised baby keepsake and prepare it for delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does it work?

Creating your keepsake is simple. You’ll start by placing your order online and choosing your personalised details, including paper colour, foil colour, font, and frame. We’ll then send you a free inkless print kit so you can capture your baby’s tiny hand and footprints at home — completely mess-free and safe for delicate skin.

Once you send us a photo of the prints, we’ll lovingly create your custom keepsake, including your baby’s name, birth date, time, and weight. Before it’s finished, you’ll receive a proof to review and approve, so you can be sure every detail feels just right. Your finished piece will be a beautiful keepsake to treasure for years to come.

Will I receive an inkless print kit?

Yes — almost every keepsake order (excluding those from your existing prints pack) includes a complimentary Inkless Print Kit. Each kit comes with one non-toxic wipe and a special reactive paper that’s safe to use from birth, allowing you to capture your baby’s hand or footprints at home — completely mess-free.

Can I order an extra inkless print kit?

Yes, absolutely! If you’d like an additional inkless print kit — for example, to capture another set of prints or if you make a mistake — you can order one for $25. Please send us a message or order here if you’d like to add one, and we’ll make sure it’s included with your order.

Can I include both hands and feet?

Yes! To include both hands and feet, the keepsake will need to be created horizontally.
Please let us know when you send your prints, and we’ll make sure your keepsake includes both.
There is an additional fee of $35 for including both hands and feet.

How do you get the correct size of hand & footprint?

You’ll receive an inkless print kit to take the prints at home using the provided card. Once you send us a photo of the finished print on the card, we can accurately work out the exact size, as we know the precise measurements of the card itself. This ensures your baby’s hand and footprints are perfectly to scale.

What’s the best way to take my baby’s prints so they turn out beautifully?

For best results, your baby should be as still as possible. If you have a wriggly little one, we recommend taking the prints while your baby is asleep or nursing, when they’re naturally calm and relaxed.

My print has smudges — can you remove them?

Yes, absolutely. We’ll carefully clean up the prints and send you a preview for confirmation before finalising your artwork, so there’s nothing to worry about.

Will I receive a preview of the print?

Yes, absolutely. We’ll send you a digital preview of your print before it’s finalised, so you can see how everything looks and double-check your baby’s birth details. If anything needs adjusting, we’re happy to make changes. Your artwork will only be created once you’re completely happy with it.

When will I receive my keepsake?

Your keepsake will be ready within one week of us receiving the pictures of your prints.

What type of paper do you use?

We use high-quality smooth card, 210–300gsm, to ensure your keepsake looks beautiful and lasts for years.

Do you offer gift cards?

Yes, absolutely! These are one of our most popular options for baby showers and newborn gifts. Each Gift Pack includes an empty frame, an Inkless Print Kit, and a voucher. The recipient simply takes their baby’s prints and places the finished keepsake into the provided frame. You can order yours here.
