Homemade Birthday Cards

June 13, 2013 by mybookboost

Personalized cards are so much fun to give and receive. Here are a couple that I’ve made recently.

For this card, I cut numbers out of magazines, ads, etc. It’s easy and simple, yet personal. As an added bonus, your kids learn about two-digit numbers if they’re sitting at the table making cards while you make yours. Or they could make a card in this style. This was for my husband’s birthday this year.

 

Birthday Card

For this one, I used “Scratch Art” paper. I cut out a rectangle of it and glued it to a blank pink card. Then, I typed out the birthday girl’s name in different fonts on my computer and copied them freehand onto the scratch art paper with the wooden tool that comes with the paper. Then, the directions to the paper suggest you use your finger to rub over your creation to set it as permanent.

Good luck as you come up with your own personalized cards. People will cherish them for years to come!
