cute card idea


Question Posted Tuesday July 14 2009, 9:37 pm

i'm making the birthday card of my crush and i need help with how to lay it out. it's going to be homemade. i was thinking about putting a cute quote about living life to the fullest on it, but i'm not sure anymore (he's really into that stuff).

it would be a half-fold, and i'd want to keep it interesting. i want to write really nice things about him and how awesome he is, but i don't want him to assume i like him from the birthday card. i just want it to be cute and heartfelt without being obsessive or weird...

if i were to put a quote in, should i stick it in on the front, inside (beginning), inside (end) or on the back of the card? also, what should i put on the front? he likes the get up kids ("campfire kansas") and mgmt, as well as the poem "lessons of a moth" by don marquis. he's really happy-go-lucky and a skater. he's turning 16. he's really original and doesn't really conform, but he's NOT weird.

i want the front of the card to be something witty and not just, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" and not like, "shhh... i have to tell you a secret... (HAPPY BIRTHDAY! on the inside)" so what do you think? i'll take ANY SUGGESTIONS so if you have any idea, please feel free to answer this question. i promise i will not rate badly.

thank you.

what about a collage-type card? like on the front, maybe i could put everything that defines him or that we have in common (idk if i know enough about him to list all our commonalities)?.

I really like the quote idea. I'd say put it in front, but you could probably put it wherever. You could also maybe put the poem he likes so much in it, or maybe some song lyrics. If you can draw, maybe draw some pictures of things he likes, like skateboarding, or print some off the computer. You can do a search of funny things to write in birthday cards if you want something witty.
