A birthday card from their favourite four-legged friend!
Send me a photo of your dog or cat and I'll create a personalised illustrated A5 birthday card with your chosen message, signed from the pet.
It's a lovely little surprise for a dog mum, dog dad, cat lover or anyone whose pet is part of the family.
Choose one, two, three or four illustrated pet heads; each pet counts as one face. You could say “Happy Birthday, Mum!”, “Have a pawsome birthday!” or write something completely personal, with your pet's name included.
CHOOSE YOUR DESIGN
• P01 Paw Confetti.
• P02 Bright Birthday.
• P03 Pawsome Comic.
• P04 Simple & Sweet.
Tell me who the card is for, the message you would like and which pet or pets it is from.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
• One personalised A5 folded card.
• One, two, three or four head illustrations, according to the option you choose.
• Your chosen names and front wording.
• A white envelope.
• A small selection of FREE matching head-shaped paper confetti with your card order.
• A digital proof to check before printing, with one reasonable amendment included, if you select the proof option.
• A blank inside for your handwritten message, or a printed inside message for an additional fee.
OPTIONAL MATCHING EXTRAS
Why not add a little extra using the same illustration as your card?
• 6 × 2-inch head-shaped stickers.
• 12 × 2-inch head-shaped stickers.
• A magnet keepsake featuring your illustrated artwork.
Choose your card on its own or select an extra when ordering. These optional extras are available for an additional fee and use the illustration created for your card. If your card includes more than one face, let me know if you would like a particular split of the sticker quantity.
A LITTLE EXTRA FROM ME
I include a small selection of matching confetti heads free with your card order, as a little finishing touch for the celebration. Each loose paper head has a white border following its shape. Scatter them around the card or add them to your gift presentation!
THE ILLUSTRATION
I draw your pet's head with digital pen outlines, then fill the shapes with solid colours. I keep their individual eye shapes, ears, muzzle and coat markings, giving your card a recognisable illustrated finish without shading. The illustration features the head only.
HOW TO ORDER
1. Choose your pet-card design, number of pet heads and blank or printed-inside option. Select any optional extras and whether you would like a digital proof.
2. Enter who the card is for, your exact front wording and your pet's name or names. Add your inside message if selected.
3. Upload a clear photo of each pet when ordering.
4. If you selected a digital proof, check it when I send it. I'll then print and post your card. If you have not selected a proof, I'll prepare and print your card using the photos and details you provide.
CHOOSING YOUR PHOTO
Please send a clear photo taken in good light, with your pet's whole face and both ears visible. Avoid blurry images, heavy filters or anything covering the face. Separate photos are welcome when you are including more than one pet. If you are unsure which photo to use, send me a message and I'll help you choose.
YOUR PROOF — IF SELECTED
If you select the digital proof option, I aim to send it through Etsy Messages within 1–5 days of receiving your photos and complete personalisation details.
Please check the illustration, names and wording carefully and reply within 24 hours. One reasonable amendment is included. If I do not receive a reply within 24 hours, I will print the card as shown in the proof.
A replacement photo or a completely new illustration may need an additional quote.
PRINTING AND DELIVERY
Your physical card, white envelope and any selected extras will be packed protectively and posted using the service you choose at checkout.
Please check the current dispatch and delivery estimates before ordering; the proof window is separate from delivery time. If you need your card for a particular date, message me first so I can check availability.
EXTRA COPIES
Would you like another identical card? An extra copy using the same illustration, design and wording is £2. Please message me before ordering so I can arrange the correct price.
MORE WAYS TO INCLUDE THEIR PET
Why not also get matching decorations featuring the same illustrated pet? I also make personalised pet confetti, cupcake toppers, straws and bunting to make the celebration even more personal.
Message me if you would like help choosing matching pieces. Full decoration packs are available separately.
PLEASE NOTE
The examples show the design and illustration style; your card will be made using your own photo and wording. Colours may look slightly different on screen and in print.
This listing is for the physical card and envelope, with any optional extras you select. A digital artwork file is not included.
