Many cards are sold with a ready-made greeting lettering inside. However, words written by hand and from the heart will be a more pleasant gift for a friend.
Instructions
Step 1
Make wishes from several phrases only if you really have something to wish the birthday boy. It is better to refuse the stereotyped "happiness, health, luck". Even if you sincerely wish it, phrases are so often used that in writing, without the opportunity to hear the intonation of the congratulatory person, they are not perceived - the gaze "slides" over them without stopping.
Step 2
If you know what intangible benefits your friend really needs right now, list them in the form of wishes in the genitive case. Try to be tactful and not name the things you need, but for some reason unattainable for the birthday person.
Step 3
Such a congratulation can be accompanied by an appeal accepted between you. Avoid overly formal treatment that would sound strange in everyday life. If you cannot come up with this part of the lettering, it is better to discard it altogether.
Step 4
Your observation will help to make the postcard sincere, even in the absence of serious pretentious wishes. Remember all the little things that are pleasant to the birthday man, and the hobbies that have become his calling card. In a humorous way, write them as wishes. For example, a cat lover may wish everything fluffy, fat, mustachioed and purring.
Step 5
Use poems if you failed to express your feelings in prose. On the Internet, you can find ready-made rhymed greetings. On specialized sites, they are divided according to the type of holiday, the mood of congratulations and the "look" of the birthday person.
Step 6
Pick up a passage or a whole poem by a famous poet. Such a work, which was conceived by the author as artistic and not congratulatory, may sound very appropriate. To do this, choose a passage within the meaning and focus on the preferences of a friend.
Step 7
Find a quote from the movie that matches the content. Many movie masterpieces are just a treasure trove of aphorisms, each of which can become a succinct and short congratulation. If you could not remember a suitable expression, enter the query "quotes from movies" into an Internet search engine, add a congratulation topic to it and select from the proposed phrases the one that will become a congratulation for your friend.
