✨ Step-by-Step Guide to Make a Happy Birthday Photo Edit
Let’s break this down into easy steps:
Step 1: Collect Your Photos
First, collect some good-quality photos. Make sure you have:
1 clear full-body or half-body photo for the main cutout.
3-4 additional photos showing different poses or moods.
Prefer images with good lighting and no cluttered background.
Pro Tip:
You can also ask your friend for their favorite pictures to make the edit more personal.
Step 2: Open PicsArt and Start a New Project
Launch PicsArt and tap the ‘+’ button at the bottom center.
Select a blank canvas or a simple white background.
Choose the size — for posters, a square (1:1) or vertical (4:5) ratio works best for Instagram and WhatsApp.
Step 3: Design the Background
Use Color Fill or Gradient Fill to create a smooth background.
Add a light gray gradient at the bottom if you want a fade effect like in the thumbnail.
Insert geometric elements like triangles or abstract shapes in corners for a modern look. PicsArt has free shape stickers you can use.

Step 4: Add the Collage Photos
Tap ‘Add Photo’ and select the black-and-white photos.
Use ‘Shape Crop’ to crop each photo into a circle or segment shape.
Place them around the center in a semi-circle or pie-chart pattern.
Apply the B&W filter or Desaturate option to make these photos black and white.
Step 5: Make and Place the Main Cutout
Tap ‘Add Photo’ and select your main image.
Use the ‘Cutout’ tool to remove the background. Zoom in and adjust edges for clean cutouts.
Place this cutout in the center, overlapping the collage slightly.
Add a small shadow to make the cutout pop out naturally.
Step 6: Add Bold Birthday Text
Tap ‘Text’ and write “HAPPY BIRTHDAY”.
Step 7: Final Touches
Add small stickers or design elements if needed.
Adjust colors and alignment to keep the design neat.
Use the ‘FX’ tool to add subtle filters if required.
Double-check for spelling mistakes.
Step 8: Save and Share
Once you’re happy with the design:
Tap ‘Save’ and choose HD resolution for better quality.
Share it instantly on WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, or print it as a small poster.
Conclusion ▶️
Digital birthday posters are more than just edits — they are memories frozen in a stylish frame. They make your wishes stand out and bring a smile to your loved one’s face.
