The Birthday Project - Celebrate Good Times

Despite different backgrounds, beliefs, and traditions, one thing we share that unites us and is worth celebrating is the birthday of friends and family. Recognizing the special day of someone you love with a handcrafted card straight from the heart is always a good idea and if stocking your stash with unique birthday designs is on the agenda, have we got the perfect challenge for you! 

Our monthly Birthday Project challenge features ideas for getting creative with your birthday card making. Our team is excited to share their ideas, and we’re ALL excited to see how the challenges inspire you!


Let’s celebrate the advent of our brand-new challenge by focusing on the word “celebrate.” Incorporate the stamped or die-cut word into your birthday card design and leave no question as to the mood of your greeting!
 
Handmade card by Melania Deasy featuring products from My Favorite Things #mftstamps

Melania used the Celebrate Speech Bubble Die-namics to send her bold birthday wishes. The large size of the die makes it quick and easy to add a sentiment in a fun and unique way. She added a rainbow of color to the greeting and completed her card with a sweet raccoon image holding a balloon.

Handmade card by Inge Groot featuring products from My Favorite Things #mftstamps

Inge combined an assortment of layered panels on her card front with her sentiment taking center stage. She kept her color palette limited to aqua, white and black so the layers wouldn't compete with one another and overwhelm her birthday greeting.
