Happy birthday to my dog!

What could be better than having your best pal help you celebrate your birthday? We’ve combined everyone’s two favorite things in our fun party pets papers. With dogs wearing hats, a tortoise delivering presents, and a bunny holding a balloon, among other quirky characters, we think you’ll enjoy using these papers to make cards for all your animal-loving friends.
There’s plenty of cake, too – it wouldn’t be a birthday without a slice of something scrumptious! Here's a top tip: add a sprinkling of glitter for a real party feel!
Or, why not say "happy birthday to my dog" with a DIY pet birthday card?

Make this easy pet birthday card
Step 1
Mount a 15 x 11cm piece of pet paper onto some silver card. Stick to a 15.5 x 11.5cm base card. Mount a 12.5 x 8.5cm piece of balloon paper onto some silver card (leaving a narrow border), then stick this to the base using sticky foam pads.
Step 2
Cut out the ‘It’s party time!’ banner and position it near the bottom of the balloon panel and stick it in place. Attach the pink doodle doily just above the sentiment. Use foam pads to stick your toppers in place to create dimension to your DIY pet birthday card.
Step 3
Cut out various pets and presents and arrange them above the banner. Stick some flush to the card and others raised with sticky foam pads. Embellish with pearls and gems, to finish.
