Comedy recording artist Weird Al Yankovic stars in a SmashUp video card from American Greetings that shares fun-filled greetings with fast-moving, hilarious content. Sending happy birthday wishes is more fun than before thanks to an over-the-top greeting experience that includes the recipient's name and age.
