1. Create a Greeting Card in the Form of a Classic Flip Book!

Birthday Flip BookFlipClips turns digital video clips into paper flip books, so if you want your card to stand out and be remembered, get some colorful construction paper and with a marker, write a personal greeting across a few sheets of paper. Then videotape yourself (or get someone to assist you) and hold each sheet up long enough to give someone time to read it. If you wanted to get really creative you could print out pictures of you and the birthday recipient and make a collage on the wall behind you or have some vibrantly colored balloons in the video frame with you. Then all you have to do is upload your video clip to FlipClips.com and personalize your Flipbook. A Classic Flipbook is priced at $18Create a Flip Book and works best for up to 15 seconds of video. Prices increase with longer clips.

The possibilities for this type of format are endless. If you’re giving this to your child it’s a great way to transport them back in time to their first steps, or endless other developmental milestones they reached on their journey. The Today Show, InStyle Weddings Magazine and Martha Stewart Living have all recommended Flipbooks. With this link, get $3 off the purchase of any order at FlipClips.com!

2. DIY Create Personalized Recordable Musical Card – Vertical Blank Card

DIY Create Personalized Recordable Musical CardThis is another unique Birthday greeting card idea that is sure to bring a smile to the recipient’s face. With up to 100 seconds of audio space available, you could have friends and family (perhaps those who don’t live close by) leave phone messages on your phone or Skype account ahead of the recipients birthday and then record them onto the card for a really unique surprise!

There isn’t any special software required and it works with all types of devices, from MP3 players and ipads, to android tablets and smartphones. Some easy assembly is required, but the card does come blank. This gives you an opportunity to get creative with the decoration of the card and written message inside. You could print out one of our Birthday Wishes PDF’s and glue onto the outside of the card or have a custom card face designed on Fiverr for $5. In the Illustration section you will find some great pop art designers and caricature artists who can design a likeness to the Birthday girl or boy for the front of your card. A fun project where you can get very creative! Take a look at the kit to create the musical card here.
