An LA-based company that specializes in handmade goods, Dizzy Cactus has developed a range of casual greeting cards designed to "tell people you love them without having to tell people you love them."
Gen Z and millennials are generations known for being Internet-obsessed and tech-savvy, not hopelessly romantic. Consumers in this age range are more likely to opt for crass humor than compliments or heartfelt sentiment when picking out a greeting card. Keeping this in mind, the Dizzy Cactus cards are emblazoned with humorously neutral statements such as "I tolerate you," "your face is aesthetically pleasing" and "I like you even when I'm sober."
Casual greeting cards such as these are perfect for those who don't wish to be too overt with their feelings, while still letting the recipient know they care.
