Happy President’s Day! In honor of Washington’s birthday, I decided to make a couple of birthday cards today. I love to have a few birthday cards ready to go when we need them for parties.

The first card I made is Lori’s Birthday Candle Card (Silhouette, SVG). The second card is the Candle Birthday Card (Silhouette, SVG). This card has a pullout panel with a printed sentiment. So cute! I used paper from the Echo Park Little Boy Collection.

I hope you enjoyed these fun cards and be sure to stop by Lori’s shop to check out even more birthday card ideas!


Once I had the cut file uploaded to Cricut Design Space I adjusted the proportions to make it a square.
I also did not want the heart to be a separate cut from the XOXO so I selected everything and welded the images together.
I used white cardstock to cut the XOXOXO background.
The only spaced I backed with paper was the heart shape.
I also added a few straight stitches with a sewing machine. I ruffed the edges of the paper with an edges distresser tool.
