About these Birthday Cards

This is the full birthday range, which is most of what I make. Somewhere in here is the card for the milestone year, the one for the child who only cares about dinosaurs, and the one for the friend who would be insulted by anything sincere. The filters do the heavy lifting: age first, then who it is for, then style.

Milestone years have their own pages, from a 1st birthday through to 70th, and those are usually the fastest way in if you know the number.

Every card is made to order in my studio in Mallow, County Cork. Add a name on any design or leave the field empty and it is made as photographed. Real foil is pressed by hand with heat, so the lettering moves in the light rather than sitting flat like printed metallic ink. Cards are heavyweight cardstock, blank inside, with a kraft or white envelope, dispatched within 2 to 4 working days by An Post. If the present is a concert, a trip or a match, the birthday keepsake cards reveal it properly, and there are matching birthday cupcake toppers for the cake.

Good to know

Birthday Cards questions, answered

What size are the cards, and what do they cost?

Most designs come in two sizes. A6 at 10.5 by 14.8 cm, from 3.99 euro, and A5 at 14.8 by 21 cm, from 4.50 euro. A few designs are A6 only. The sizes and prices available are shown on each product page.

Can I add a name?

On personalised designs, yes. Type the name into the box on the product page and it is printed on the card. Premade designs are printed exactly as shown, with no name.

Is anything printed inside?

No. The inside is left blank so you can write your own message. Any personalisation is printed on the front of the card.

Does it come with an envelope?

Yes. Every card is sent with an envelope included in the price, kraft or white depending on the design.

Are the cards foiled or printed?

Both. Most designs are printed on 300gsm card with a smooth matte finish, and some are finished with real foil pressed by hand. A few are scratch-off. The finish is stated on each product page.

What if I spot a mistake in the details?

Message me straight away. If it has not gone to print yet I will fix it at no cost. Once it is printed and dispatched, a replacement is a paid reprint.

How long before it arrives?

Made to order and dispatched within 2 to 4 working days, then standard An Post delivery within Ireland.
