Noodles for Long Life
My family has a tradition where on every birthday we have a noodle dish to celebrate good fortune and a long and prosperous life. To make this card, I painted the fork using metallic silver paint and created the noodles with yellow and coral acrylic paint.
A Bouquet of Flowers
Who doesn’t love receiving a bouquet of flowers (even if they are paper)? I painted various different varieties — some made up — and pasted them on a circular cardboard that I painted green. Hand paint your own little note on the tag and tell them how much you care.
A Birthday Cupcake
I thought this was a fun and unique variation on a cupcake card. I painted the cupcake on a piece of card stock using acrylic paint. Elevate the card by gluing beads as sprinkles.
