Want to make a birthday gift even more memorable? Add a handmade birthday card! Birthdays were a different kind of special deal when we were kids. The excitement of playing with colourful balloons, a big cake, cards, eating yummy party food – ah, the bliss! As we grow up, we continue with all of them, except for the little birthday cards. How we miss collecting beautiful handmade cards! Wish to revive this heart-warming tradition? Here are some easy card creation ideas your children will love! Blow Up Balloon Card Let's get creative with balloons. First, write a cute/funky/embarrassing birthday message and put it inside a balloon. Then, stick the balloon in a card and put in instructions to inflate and pop the balloon in order to get the secret message.
