30 Clever Greeting Cards

— March 8, 2009 — Art & Design
Greeting card companies like Hallmark and American Greetings have taught us to express our feelings with pre-made pieces of card stock; the clever, handmade cards in the selection below defy this convention entirely.

With taglines that proclaim, "I love you more than beer," and "I'd sooner chop off my hand than give it to you," these greeting cards aren't like anything you'd find in a drugstore aisle.

Implications - With so many greeting cards out there, the creativity of messages within them are taking a dive into lackluster territory. Consumers are attracted to products that brighten up their day a little bit. Developing more items with a humorous element could help companies grow their audience.
