DIY: birthday card.



It's one of those weeks. Everything that possibly could go wrong is going wrong and it isn't showing me in my best light, to say the least. But, the world goes round. It was Amy's birthday on Monday- happy birthday- and I had one of those moments when you go into a shop, walk back out and then remember what you went in for. Typical. So, I had to make a birthday card, and I'll be the first to say that it wasn't the best homemade card I've ever seen, but it's the thought that counts!
You'll need:
scissors
gossip magazines (I used heat)
glue
plain card
pen
A photo of the birthday person
What to do:
1. Fold your card into a real card shape! You can be as basic or as inventive as you wish, afterall it's meant to have a personal touch!
2. Flick through your magazine cutting out random things. I chose to cut out celebrities, random words and dresses.

3. Cut out the image of the person you chose.
4. Arrange them onto the front of your card until you're 100% happy with your design!
5. Glue them down
6. Write a lovely message in your card!
I hope you have fun trying this quick DIY- especially if you're forgetful like me! I'd love to know what you thought of this make-do card. Keep Smiling xoxo
