Ask your friend or family member to be your child’s godparent with a handlettered card!
Each card is made to order and hand lettered with embossing ink then dusted with powder and heated to create that embossed look. Due to the hand created nature of each piece, slight variations will occur.
Invitation cards can be created with any saying, the list below is just a starting point:
- Will You Be My Godmother?
- Will You Be My Godfather?
- Will You Be My Godparents?
Contact me if you’re interested in a custom saying, but you can check the galleries below for a variety of other sayings.
Once they’ve accepted this honorable invitation, we have thank you cards too!!
Various glitter and inks available… white, gold glitter, bronze, red glitter, silver glitter, black glitter, blue metallic… and more!
Size: A2.
White, Cream/Ivory, Kraft Gray, White, or Black cardstock card sized at 4 1/4″ by 5 1/2″ when folded. Envelopes sized at 4 3/8″ by 5 3/4″.

Personalized Cards
Add a more personal touch to your cards with the various upgrades available. Whether you want to add your name as a signature or your friend’s name at the top, it adds to that special moment. And nothing makes a better first impression than a hand addressed envelope, especially in matching lettering. Further personalize with the deluxe touch, see the end of this page for some ideas.
Below you’ll find galleries showing the variety of card options… between the different sayings that have been created and the various color combinations, there’s quite a selection!
Possible Wording Options
Cardstock Options
Cream/Ivory Cardstock
Our cream and ivory cardstock cards are by far the most popular selection, especially paired with the gold glitter embossing.
The quality was amazing! What a special way to ask my dear friend to be my daughters godmother! Would definitely order again and again and again!!
White Cardstock
Can’t go wrong with classic whiteāit goes with everything!
Black Cardstock
Everything looks great on black! And I love the pop of gold when paired with the upgraded gold envelope.
Kraft Brown Cardstock
White embossing looks best on the Kraft Brown cardstock for contrast but after making cards with other embossing options, I just love them all.
Gray Cardstock
I absolutely love the gray Kraft cardstock. White might be my favorite embossing option with this one too.
Navy Cardstock
Navy looks great with gold, silver or white!
Limited Edition Colors
As a scrapbook addict, I have some colors of cardstock available that aren’t listed. Just send me a message on Etsy with your special request and I’ll see what I can provide.
Deluxe Customization
Please view a selection of some of my favorite custom orders. I love the creativity from these mothers who want to add their own special twist to their cards.
“A perfect way to ask someone to be a godmother/godfather. Beautifully done!”
Signature Options
Card with Poem Inscription and Personalized Signature
Did you see the printed poem option in any of the above photos? After getting the request to print my handwritten poem in a card, I loved it so so much that I had to make it an official offering. And of course, since then, people have customized that even further with more variety in printing colors. These are currently unavailable at this time as I search for a new poem to use.
“Such a precious keepsake for my son’s godparents!! I absolutely love it & can’t wait to give it them. Great customer service and fast turn around time!”
Hope this gives you a great glimpse into my little world of embossed cards!

Hi
Are you no longer using the poem ending in ‘godfather you are loved’?
Would I still be able to order?
I would love 1 for each godparent š
Thanks
