DIY Birthday Card


Here's my go-to DIY birthday card...

Print a photo of a birthday cake wishing the recipient a happy birthday (e.g. Happy Birthday Heather).  For example, do a search on Google with the words "birthday cake Heather."  Click images.  Search for a photo you like.  Save it.  Print it on Kirkland Signature 4"x6" photo paper from Costco.  Fold a 9"x12" piece of contruction paper in half to create a card.  Using a bone folder, press along fold to smooth.  Affix photo on front of card using two super tiny (probably 1/8"x1/8") foam mounting squares, from Michaels Arts and Crafts.  Write greeting inside card.  Attach card to gift bag using colored plastic or plain wooden clothespin.
