Frequently asked questions.

What is the standard birthday card size?

Most cards are 5” by 7” but you can make your birthday card any size you’d like. Use the Resize tool to enter custom dimensions.

Can I make an animated birthday card?

Absolutely. If you're sharing the birthday card online, animated effects are a great way to make your birthday wishes shine. Select any element in your birthday card design and add animated effects in one click. When you're done, download your animated card as an MP4 to email it to your recipient, or share it straight from Adobe Express to social media.

How do I design multiple sides for a printed birthday card?

Design one side of your card, then duplicate your project and use your first page as a template to create the second side. Most have four sides for a folded card, but you can add as many as you’d like.

Can I create my own birthday card template?
