Birthday Confetti Papers

About this freebie

Celebrate with this free paper pack for your birthday layouts. The download includes 8 papers in a bright palette of white, cherry, teal, sunshine, grape and ink. You get fun patterns like confetti, balloons, big dots, stripes, chevron and stars.

The pack also includes a solid cherry and a solid sunshine paper to balance the busy prints. Each JPG file is 12 x 12 inches at 300 dpi. These files are free for personal use and for items you sell or give away, but do not share or sell the files themselves.

Ideas for using it

1. Create a bright party invitation using the balloons pattern as a background. Add a solid cherry shape in the center for your text.
2. Document a birthday party with the confetti and stars papers. The cherry, teal and sunshine colors work well for both boys and girls.
3. Make a festive birthday card to give away. Use the chevron or stripes pattern and add a large age number cut from the solid sunshine paper.
4. Frame a single large photo on your layout. Use the big dots paper for the background and add a thin border in ink or grape.

How to use it

• These files are 3600 x 3600 pixels. You can learn more about page sizes and printing to get the best results on your home printer.
• When using busy patterns like the balloons or confetti, place a solid paper behind your photos. This helps your pictures stand out against the background.
• You can resize the JPG files in your software to make the patterns smaller. Menu names vary by version, but look for an image size option.
• Use the papers as page backgrounds, or cut blocks and strips by clipping them to shapes.
