Under?Year by Year?Links we have a link to an American Famous Birthdays List but this does not include many British Celebrities.

We have therefore created our own unique List, unique because?every other British website presenting a list has merely "borrowed" one from America.

Just click on the month required.

Birthdays?shared with a Celebrity can be a useful source of inspiration for both the theme of the design and also the verse inside
For example, if you were making a card for a man who is keen on cars, and driving generally, and his birthday happened to be 17th September you would have really struck lucky because your man shares a birthday with, not just Damon Hill, but Stirling Moss as well.
Similiarly, a keen golfer born on 9th February shares a birthday with Sandy Lisle and Bernard Gallacher.

Here's a few more doublers

23rd March???? Speed Record Breakers??????Roger Bannister & Donald Campbell
29th April?????? Rhyming?Dukes????????????????? Duke Ellington & Duke of Wellington
27th May?????? Horror Stars????????????????????????Christopher Lee & Vincent Price
10th July????? ?Tennis Stars??????????????????????? Virginia Wade & Arthur Ashe
8th Sept??????? Goons?????????????????????????????????Harry Secombe & Peter Sellers
12th Sept????? Surname Colours??????????????? ? Linda Gray & Barry White
25th Sept????? Husband/Wife Stars???????????? ?Michael Douglas & Catherine Zeta Jones
13th Oct?????? Female Tory Politicians??????????Margaret Thatcher & Edwina Currie
27th Oct?????? Footballers???????????????????????????Glenn Hoddle?& Lee Clark
31st Oct???????Sir J.S.????????????????????????????????Sir Jimmy Saville & Sir Joseph Swan
1st Dec??????? Comedy Stars???????????????????????Woody Allen & Richard Pryor (& Bette
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Midler)??????

Of course? it can work just as well with just one celeb or two distinctly different ones.
For the want of an example lets take Harry who's birthday is 6th May, so:-

Harry, you're such a smooth talker
And so good looking or what?
Your birthday's shared with Tony Blair and George Clooney
So that explains a lot

That template can be used for anybody, so :-

Gary, you're such?a football nut
And an intellectual swot
You share your birthday with Glenn Hoddle and Dylan Thomas
So that explains a lot

Or :-

Jimmy, you're argumentative
And you'll probably say you're not
Your birthday's shared with George Foreman and Nigel Benn
So that explains a lot

Notice the second line ending can vary, as in:-

* And you've always been a swot
* Ever since you left the cot
* And that( sense of humour ) (clumsiness) (beautiful face)you've got
* We think you've lost the plot
* And your( singing's) (dancing's)(sense of fashion's)?really hot

And so:-
( 23rd April)

It's your birthday and St George's Day
You've always been a swot
It's William Shakespeare's birthday as well
So that explains a lot

More variations on the theme..

It's (Celebrity Name)'s birthday
A person who's gone far
Coincidentally, it's your birthday
My own Superstar.

..or perhaps, it's more fun to be sarky

It's (Celebrity Name)'s birthday
That's a coincidence I'd say
He's talented and good looking
And ...it's your birthday today

You share a birthday with (Celebrity Name)
A very famous name
He's very slim and earns fat cheques
And you're sort of...close to being the same

It's your's and (Celebrity Name)'s birthday
That's a coincidence, I find
He's talented, rich? and good looking
And you're not....arhhhh...never mind
..........I love you, anyway

We hope this has given you a few ideas or, at least, expanded your options and if you have any ideas of your own you would care to share with other crafters please add them to the forum on www.imag-e-nation.co.uk
