I write my own birthday letters all the time. You will need this: Markers, Colored Pencils, A black pen, glitter (optional),and a 11x12 paper which is printer paper.
First fold the paper into halves. Measure it neatly and make a good crease. Turn it so it is like a book. On the cover write this also for instance the person I will be sending is Cole so you will write this on the cover with your black pen
Happy Birthday
Cole!
Make sure to center the name. You can make bubble letters if you want. Trace over the words with your friends favorite color if you don't know usally if it is a boy choose blue if it is a girl choose pink. Don't just plainly trace it over make it like a design when you are tracing over it. I use zigzags. Just zigzag the lines when you are tracing over it. Take your markers and make some confetti over these words remember to use diffrent colors. Make some stars or something by the text.
Next stil on the cover a little bottom the happy birthday text. Write:
To: Cole
From: you
So now you should have this
Happy Birthday
Cole
To: Cole
From: you
Just with some designs and stuff.
On the to and from just trace it over with black marker just do it plain not fancy or anything.
By the to and from write some comments like thx for being my friend! Happy Birthday! Make sure to write them small in case you are a big letter writer. Make them side ways and stuff but don't make them straight.
And make some confetti again.
Next turn to the inside cover write on the left side. Here is a suggestion what to write it is just a suggestion. Also Cole is my best friend in the whole school and his birthday what not too long ago this is pretty much what I wrote
HEre it is :
Dear Cole,
You have been a really good friend to me. You nice sweet smart and kind to me. You taught me alot stuff. I really like to play football with you. You are really good at football. I'm glad that me and you met and became friends. You make me feel better through difficult times. You help me get out of trouble . You play games with me when I get bored. You're a very good friend I'm really glad that I met you. You are the best friend in the whole universe and everything there is. You rock Cole!!
From you
Ok on the right side paper draw a picture of you and your friend doing something that you normally do together. Make it colorful and do your best. Don't go shopping for a card. Your friend will like it but he or she will like the card you made just because you made it.
On the back draw and write something. This is what I did I did a rainbow with clouds on both ends and on the rainbow I wrote Friends Forever. On the backround draw some cloud and more confetti.
And that is the end. You might now wonder what the glitter is for you don't really have to use it but it will look better if it is non stick glitter it will look worser. this is what you do with non stick glitter get a glue stick rub it on the parts where is has confetti and just spread the glitter on it. Don't put it do much or it will look like a glitter dump. Don't just spill it out if you have like a salt shaker take the salt out put the glitter in and just shake it around on the confetti.
If yo have glue glitter just put it on there put spread it evenly
This is the end I hoped I helped also sorry if I made it too long it did not take me a long time to type this my WPM is 168 fastest
IT only took me 10 minutes. I hoped I helped
