The first of the new cards have now been delivered to thousands of those celebrating their milestone occasions and, according to the Royal Family 'several veterans of the Second World War are recipients of the first birthday cards from Their Majesties'.
The Palace shared a photograph across social media of Ruth Park-Pearson smiling with her royal card, before a backdrop of balloons reading 'Mum'.
A caption alongside the post explained that Ruth 'served in the Women's Royal Naval Service (the WRENS)', adding that she 'celebrated her 100th birthday on Friday, 21st October, surrounded by many of her six children, 13 grandchildren and 25 great-grandchildren'.
The Palace explained the royal card giving tradition began with King George V in 1912, when he would send telegrams to those turning 100 or celebrating 60 years of marriage.
The Queen continued the tradition and around 1.3 million cards were sent to mark significant birthdays and anniversaries during her 70 year reign.
After Her Majesty's passing, members of the public left condolence cards, flowers and around 1000 Paddington Bear teddies outside various royal residences.
The Royal Family revealed that bears were being cleaned up and sent to Baranardo's children's charity which would find them new homes.
