Tiny Prints was created by three friends who share a love of babies and an appreciation for giving and receiving good paper.

Seeing paper and hand-written notes increasingly taking a back seat to email and digital communications, we set out to restore the excitement and the days of announcements, invitations and "just-because" notes in everyone's mailboxes. Having worked in ecommerce in Silicon Valley for many years and sharing a passion for new technology that makes people's lives easier and more convenient, we were inspired to build a website that made shopping for paper fun, easy and even better than the store shopping experience.

As recent new parents ourselves, we were especially drawn to the baby market after personally going through the frustrating experience of trying to shop for unique, high-quality birth announcements online.
