HI, I'm not sure if this fits this forum but I don't know where else to go. My dad is turning 90. I want something really special and spectacular (may have to make 2 cards!) I'm just hoping that some of you creative peope on here might be willing to help me. I have 2 weeks to make this card. HELP!
Thanks.
Help with ideas for 90th birthday card
Re: Help with ideas for 90th birthday card
To be honest, I'm not that naturally creative so I usually Google stuff to get inspired and to "borrow" some ideas. Try searching for "cards for a 90 year-old." There's quite a bit of stuff out there. If you find something specific that you need help creating, I'm sure someone here would be happy to help. (As long as it's not copyrighted.) 
Happy birthday to your dad. How cool is that?

Re: Help with ideas for 90th birthday card
My father-in-law turns on 90 Apr 7. We are having a family gathering this Sunday and am working on a card for him. I found a cute design at this link and it says "Celebrating my 21st birthday the 69th time". I thought he would find it cute and maybe you might like it too. Anyway, the site is http://www.cafepress.com/+90th-birthday+greeting_cards.

You can do a search for two beautiful frames that are embossed and with flourishes and perhaps have them linked together.. In one frame put a baby photo of him and a the second oval a present day photo of him.. Like this one I did here.

90th Birthday party was to be today for my father-in-law. Unfortunately, he fell 2 days ago, has 2 black eyes and is now on the way to the hospital. Finished the card, but it will need to wait. Prayers are welcome...90 is such a fragile age.
