Funny Greeting Cards

Sending funny greeting cards is a good way to cheer up a friend, provide a few laughs or just start the day right. If you want to show your humorous side, here are some ideas.

Christmas Cards

Send cards with photos of your pet dog with Santa Claus’ hat. You can also have your cat don a Santa’s little helper hat. You can also put on some candy cane antennae or antler head decors on your pets and place them on your card.

You can also dress the baby or toddlers in Santa Claus outfits complete with beard and moustache. These are available in any party supply store. These are attached by elastic straps so they don’t come off easily. You can also send funny cards showing the hassles that come with holiday shopping and buying gifts.

Birthdays and Other Occasions

Funny greeting cards can be sent on any occasion, but birthdays are some of the best times. Send a card with pictures or humorous messages about getting old. Good punch lines and subjects are losing hair, getting beer bellies and memory lapses. For younger people, you can send cards with one line jokes or wisecracks about being young and carefree.

You can also make humorous Valentine’s Day cards. The best ones are those that will remind you both of a humorous, even embarrassing moment you shared in the past.

If your friend is a new graduate or working for the first time, you can send a humorous greeting card about work, hard to please bosses, and other jokes about being stuck in an office all day. It will be funnier if the joke is related to their particular line of work.

Go Online

If you can’t think of one you can always go online. There are many, many funny cards on the Web, fit for every occasion and no occasions. Many of these are free, so it’s just a matter of choosing the funniest card and sending it off.

Tips

If you have a photo editing program like Photoshop, you can cut and paste heads. You can paste heads onto the bodies of other people or even animals. You can also look at the Internet for sources of inspiration. You can draw from your own experiences complete with a witty punch line at the end.

It is always a good idea to keep the recipient in mind; the joke should be something they can easily get.

Warnings

Be careful about who you send the card to. A raunchy card may send your buddies roaring with laugher, but it may not be suitable for your mom or grandma. Before you email a joke, check the list of people to whom it will be sent.

Unless you know the person well and know they won’t mind, don’t send cards that make fun or jokes about religion or political and social issues.
