Yes! It’s all about you! Please create 3 cards as follows:
THE FIRST CARD should show a birthday cake. Make it any shape, and decorate it as you like, using whatever colors you wish (maybe your favorite colors, since this is all about you). Put candles on it, or just write Happy Birthday.
THE SECOND CARD should illustrate your birthstone. It can be an image of a faceted gem, or can be mounted in a piece of jewelry, a necklace or ring, etc. (You can use real rhinestones, but they need to be small, under 1/8” high).
THE THIRD CARD should depict the flower of your birthday month, as a single flower, or in a bouquet or vase. Birthstones and flowers for each month are listed for your reference.
NOTE: I will be checking our AFA calendar, and please mention it here on the thread, if your actual birthday falls anywhere during the swap dates (when posted, up until the due date, 12/12 - 2/18) and you will receive a little surprise with your returns.
