Birthday Lettering FAQs
Can I use lettering on a birthday backdrop board?
Yes where the board is smooth and the adhesive is suitable; check the material before ordering.
Can I include a large age and small name?
Create separate designs so the age and name can be different sizes.
Will the design come ready with balloon decorations?
No. This maker creates cut vinyl lettering; any balloons or props are separate.
Can I choose the size?
Yes. Set the required width or height in millimetres in the lettering maker and review the proportions in the preview.
Does the background colour get printed?
No. The background option only simulates the surface behind your lettering.
