Another birthday card open to endless interpretations. Kick it up a notch and use glittered or metallic cardstock for the confetti. Or, use pastel cardstock to welcome a new addition to the family. Meet me back here for Day 7 of the 31 Days of Handmade Cards. Be creative!

Editor’s note: I created this card using the Cricut Creative Memories Cheerful Seasons cartridge, which is no longer available. The word celebrate in the Paper Lace cartridge is a suitable alternative.
