Punnypixels has created a series of greeting card puns perfect for the individual's who aren't necessarily supporters of Valentine's Day. Although the graphics and copy all point to love, it is relayed in a way that is funny and clever. The greeting card puns are also so well-designed that people would love to frame them to display in homes and offices as a constant reminder of that silly type of love.
With sayings such as "You Kern Me On” and “Let’s Merge Our Layers,” the greeting card puns are complemented with bold typography and bright colors that stray away from the typical red, pink and white often associated with the Hallmark holiday. Granted, the colors are still used, just not as blatantly. The prints are available online.
