Stone Age Funny Get Well Card
Funny Get Well Card! “and this is Ralph, your anesthesiologist.” Lol. This is one of the better non-cheesey get well cards I’ve come across. The layout and simple cartoon style reminds me of the “far side” cartoons that I used to love so much. This was on one of the pages in the get well cards section.
Puppy Is Here For You Card
I like this sympathy card for a few reasons. There’s no reason to send someone a card that makes someone feel even worse than they already do which I feel that alot of cards do nowadays. I would rather recieve a cute picture of a puppy than a picture of a bunch of flowers. There’s something calming about having a dog near you that I think even this photograph captures very well. Just...
Remember To Get Birthday Card
Happy Belated Birthday! I have a feeling I’ve given something very similar to this as a birthday card at some point in my life. It might not have had the cork board backing though. It seems that some of the best cards are inspired by the most basic items and ideas. I’ll try to look for it later and possibly post it but I remember also seeing a card that looked like it was made out of...
He Sees You When He's Sleeping Christmas Card
“He Sees You When You’re Sleeping” Christmas Card I never believed in Santa when I was a kid. My parents killed of that idea really early with me. Regardless, when you look at this card I totally know how the cartoon kid feels. The thought of some strange man in a red bath robe watching me sleep would creep me out even now that I’m grown myself. There’s a message on...
How Big is Your Love Card
Grtz.net: How big is your love? I think this is my all time favorite card in any category. This is the card that gets you some guaranteed action at the end of the night. Get it for your girlfriend and this card will end up in her box of saved notes she’s been keeping since she was in highschool. The design is superb, the idea is perfect, and as long as you write her name correctly inside,...
Lily of the valley thank you card.
Lily of the Valley Thank You I’m more of a funny or vintage card type if there was one but for the occasion of giving a thank you card, there’s not really much room for that type of thing. This is probably my favorite thank you card I’ve come across sofar. It’s got a timeless look to it. It doesn’t show some awfully typical flowers that you’d expect to see....
Love You T-Rex Card
T-Rex Valentine I thought this was a very well designed card. It’s not very typical to see a dinosaur on a valentine card. I’m not sure what this was made with but it seems that it’s possibly watercolor and a bit of photoshop. There’s LOTS of detail in this and I would like to see some paintings from this artist. This was one of the featured cards on the love cards page.
Vintage Turkey Greeting Card
Vintage Design Thanksgiving Greetings With thanksgiving recently passed I think this is a great card to look back on the holiday with. This card has a couple things going for it that I find interesting. First of all, you’ll immediately recognize that it’s an antique card that’s been scanned in to a computer and repurposed for many more years of use. I’m sure the designer...
Good luck Graduates! Graduation Card
Good Luck, Graduates! - Card I can’t express how true this card is. You graduate high school or college and then you’re expected to be ready for what’s next. Of course people don’t expect you to be ready, but at the time it sure feels like it. Sure enough, I found this on the graduation greeting cards page along with a few other gems.
Cake On Fire Birthday Card
Funny Birthday Card! I hope I end up living long enought to recieve a cake like this. I have a feeling if I did, cake would probably be about one of the only solid foods I’d be able to eat at that point anyways. This is a pretty funny card for someone who can take an age joke. I found it on the birthday cards page among a few other cartoon style’d cards, but this one caught my eye the...

I spend most of my time designing cards online at zazzle, but I’ll mention and show any other ones that catch my eye. Feel free to shoot over a link if you’ve got something you think I should mention.
