Description
This debossed square birthday card carries a sweet illustrated scene of a girl with her dog, set on soft cream card with "Happy Birthday" printed across the top in tall black lettering. The girl has a pink ponytail tied with a yellow bow and wears a turquoise pinafore dress. She reaches out to a little yellow dog sitting up with one paw raised and a pink collar round its neck. Fine black line drawings frame the pair: tall townhouses, railings, and curling posts topped with tiny birds. Small blue and yellow flowers dot the corners. The card is about 12.5cm square and comes with a turquoise envelope that picks up the colour of her dress.
Inside it is blank, so the message is entirely yours: a long letter, a few lines of your own, or simply a name and a kiss. The cheerful drawing and gentle colours suit any birthday where a much-loved dog is part of the family, and the printed greeting does half the work for you. Once the day is over, its square shape sits nicely on a mantelpiece, a windowsill or a bedside table. It is also small enough to tuck in with a present.
We like the feel of this one. The design is debossed, pressed gently into the surface so you can trace the lines with a fingertip, and the card has a smooth matt finish. At 280gsm it is a good weight, firm enough to stand up on a shelf once it has been written and opened. It is made in the UK from responsibly sourced materials and reaches you without plastic packaging. Keep it flat and dry until you need it. For a finishing touch, address the turquoise envelope in a pink or yellow pen to echo the drawing.
