Determine the look and style of the birthday card you want to create. Use fun elements and illustrations. Add images and cute backgrounds when the need be. Make sure that you edited the placeholder text and added the celebrant's name and your message.

Choose a base card and fold the paper horizontally or vertically. Using your favorite writing utensil, write a phrase such as “Wishing You Well” or “Missing You” on the front of the card. Then write out your greeting on the inside. Embellish the card with ribbons, stickers, or sequins to make it pop.
