#124 Ahla Gateaux | أحلى جاتو | Birthday Card | Family Moment

Regular price $14.95
Unit price  per 

A card that feels like home.

This one is personal. Illustrated from a real family moment that lives rent-free in the heart of every Arab daughter.

It was a humble birthday. The cake had pistachios and whipped cream. Farah wore a massive headband. Her brother sported his digital Casio. And Baba finally joined them on the couch, just in time to help blow out the candles.

The cake was the fanciest thing in their eyes. The real gift was this family moment.. a moment that felt perfect.

This card is a tribute to the birthdays that didn’t need much. Just a Baba’s presence. A family’s laughter. And a heart that felt full.

Ahla Gâteau is for your siblings, your childhood best friend, or the parent who made it all feel complete.

Because it was never about the party. It was always about the people who showed up.

Inside: Blank for your own memory, or to help recreate one for someone you love.
