Magazines and books from the library. There are plenty on card making.


check out the idea gallery at www.archiversonline.com
Reply:Go to almost any craft or scrapbook store and get the magazine called "Card Creations". It has a LOT of really good birthday card ideas. I make all my own birthday cards and I find that people keep these around longer, where the store-bought ones usually get thrown away almost immediately after reading them.
Reply:I'm not particularily crafty myself so I print up pictures to stick on the front (on photo paper).


There's lots of useful stuff around - magazines, fabric the computer (to print your message in nice font. cut out and stick inside card).


I found one website with lots of gallery pictures. Maybe you can borrow a baby photo of her from her parents to scan and print as the front?


You sound like a caring friend I hope she enjoys her birthday.
Reply:my 6 yr old can make one so i know u can, just go to a craft store and get some ideas from a magazine.
Reply:maybe a sculptor of something she likes or a really fancy card :)
