Step-by-step guide to create this template →WHAT YOU CAN CUSTOMIZE
How this template works
Add birthday notes and photos
Review the expandable birthday notes and photo section. Make captions specific, use images you have permission to share and remove any item that still contains sample copy.
Test the hidden secret and print option
Preview the scratch-to-reveal interaction and the “Print the good news” action if it is visible. Confirm the secret appears as intended and the final birthday headline is correct.
Open the correct template draft
From the Template Library, open “The Birthday Times” and choose “Use template”. Sign in when asked. If the editor reopens an existing draft for this template, check that it is the one you intended to continue.
Edit only the fields you need
Click a highlighted text, image, video, audio item or button on the canvas to open its editor. Replace the visible sample content with your own. If an item does not open an editing panel, do not assume that it is an editable control in this template.
Keep media and links safe
Use photos and videos you have permission to share. Check image crops, captions, video sources and any profile or destination links that you changed. Never publish private details that should not be visible to anyone with the public link.
