Christening gown – baptism keepsake letter
A keepsake letter to write to a child on their baptism day. An heirloom christening gown hangs from a ribboned hanger in the corner of this A4 letter paper, with ox-eye daisies, forget-me-nots, buttercups and a sweet pea tucked behind it, and a white dove carries an olive sprig through a wildflower meadow along the foot, all painted in soft watercolour on warm ivory. “A letter for your Baptism Day” is lettered in a copperplate script above the child’s full name, the date and the church; then comes “Dear Linus,”, thirteen generously spaced lines to fill by hand, and “With all my love,” with room to sign. Type the name, the day and the church before you print, change “Baptism” to “Christening” or the sign-off to “With all our love,” if that suits, then write your letter in pen. It suits parents, godparents and grandparents alike: print one for each of you, and tuck the letters into the memory box to be read at a confirmation, an eighteenth birthday or a wedding day.
