Birthday Photos for Photo Greeting Cards

by Farah Z. on December 9, 2008

Birthday photos might be the one type of picture we have the most of.  On every birthday we seem to take the same poses: big birthday grin over decorated cake, blowing out the candles on said cake, and face smeared with frosting from said cake.  So it makes sense that birthday photos would be a good resource for fashioning photo greeting cards.

Making photo greeting cards from birthday photos could be a practical way to share a favorite and memorable birthday photo.  You probably see greeting cards of cute kids in greeting card stores, costing a big chunk per card, and you don’t even know those children!  Why not choose to put a face you love on the face of your thank you cards, birthday cards or note cards?  Picture engagement party invitations with birthday-cake-smeared photos of the future bride and groom.  Even adult birthday photos make nifty birthday photo greeting cards for like-aged friends, not to mention splendid photo invitations for birthday parties, retirement parties and award ceremonies.  If you go through your old photos, you may find one that would make creative and amusing get well cards or thinking of you cards.

Just looking through your old birthday photos could lead you on a pleasant trip down memory lane.  Using the birthday photos to create unique and clever photo greeting cards will give your good wishes stand-out attention.

Yes, a personalized photo card with a photo of yourself, your friend or both of you will be much much more appealing!

I so agree! Personalizing a photo greeting card and or photo greeting card invitation is definitely a move forward when it come to greeting cards now and in the future. In these hard, ever-fast changing times of hardship, people want to feel good, save memoirs, cherish the good times, and be reminded forever by a keepsake. I save all of my photo greeting cards that I receive from friends and their children. Most of them, either stay-at-home-artsy moms, have always generated home made invitations with snapshots of their kids copied and pasted that they’ve printed from their computer printers. I, also a computer-based creative, have been doing it for years, before my children arrived—even with photos of when it was just my husband and myself. I like to look at them and compare Images of them over the last several years and just smile and kiki with my own children and husband, then I cherish them forever in my collection of photo image cards.
