40th Birthday Card

Happy 5th decade. Not a number — a milestone. And a card bold enough to say so without defaulting to gold balloons and serif script.

This 40th birthday card takes a Bauhaus geometric approach: overlapping teal and red shapes, a bold numeral 4 and 0 built from pure form, and 'Happy 5th decade!' in clean sans-serif below.

A considered birthday card for the Dad, friend, or colleague turning forty who deserves something with more thought behind it than the card rack had to offer.
