NO, your page doesn't have to have a birthday theme at all. I want you to look up the DAY of your NEXT BIRTHDAY. Now, you will use the DATE, MONTH and DAY or your birthday to determine the requirements of YOUR challenge!1. If your birthday is on an odd date, use an odd number of photos. If your birthday is on an even date, use an even number of photos.
2. If your birthday is in:
January or July– use WHITE or BLUE as a main color
February or August – use STITCHING
March or September – use GREEN or BROWN as a main color
April or October – use at least one large (6" or bigger) circle element

Monday – use buttons
