Default AA or Recovery Birthday or Anniversary Cards

Any suggestions on what I should search for in the gallery so I can find cards you all have made and I could get ideas.

It's not in my gallery, but I recently did a 20 year sobriety card.

I went with the rock star stamp and You Rock! sentiment from A Muse.

My other idea was to use birthday numbers and put 20 on the cake.

I think searches for congratulations, you did it, that sort of thing would give you some good results.

Hope that helps!

I don't have it in my gallery, but I recently did one I really liked for a friend who celebrated 7 sober years.

I used the Changito stamp with the two little monkeys holding hands. I printed a saying on my computer that said:

"If we were monkeys, I'd give you SEVEN banannas!"

It was for a guy and he really loved it.

Speaking from experience, I can tell you that any kind of congrats or birthday card will work. If you know the number of years of sobriety and can incorporate that into your card, that's great but not essential. Just knowing that someone recognizes the hard work it takes to stay sober is truly appreciated by the receiver.

LOL, that sounds great! I just celebrated 30 years, and always love things that celebrate the GOOD LIFE, kwim?

Our Daily Bread Designs has a stamp of the "Serenity Prayer" that is used at AA meetings. Here's a link http://www.ourdailybreaddesigns.com/serenity

Your right cards are great. The Serenity prayer is special. My husband has 53 years of sobriety and my dad had 50 years.
