50th Birthday Card

Ideas for Making Birthday Cards

50th Birthday Card

This 50th Birthday Card design is fabulous for someone celebrating their 50th milestone birthday. It's a very simple design using minimal supplies. Yet by merely changing your choice of papers, it can be easily adapted to both men and women.

Here I used masculine looking papers and therefore the result is more suited to a man. Just look for some feminine papers and you'll have a wonderful happy birthday card for a lady!

Besides layering patterned papers, it would add more visual interest by using foam pads to give dimensions to the top layers.

Enjoy and feel free to browse through this site for more ideas to make your own birthday cards!

Card Making Steps

1. Create a cardblank with blue cardstock.

2. Cut out a big square block of lilac patterned paper and adhere it to the center of the cardblank.

3. Cut out a smaller square block of purple patterned paper and adhere it to the center of the lilac patterned paper.

4. Cut out a square block of dark brown cardstock. Adhere white chipboard letter stickers of "50" to the cardstock. Attach dark brown cardstock with foam pads to a piece of light blue cardstock. Tear out the edges of the light blue cardstock. Attach this completed tag to the purple patterned paper using foam pads.
