So much more than your average cards | Personalised Cards from GettingPersonal.co.uk
8 October 2009
The best people in your life really do deserve something that little bit special on their special day - be it a birthday, anniversary, Valentines or any other exciting reason to celebrate, you know that they deserve something that lets them know how important they are, to you.
Your loved ones certainly aren't average - so why do we settle for average cards in average shops to show them we care? Frankly, card shop cards are dull, and hundreds, maybe even thousands of people buy the same cards every day - so it's hardly a unique surprise.
But what is the alternative? Well, why not try making their day special with
personalised cards
! Before you start thinking of tacky mugs and twee key-chains, let me give you an example of how brilliant personalised cards really are. It's Valentines, and you are wanting to give a card to a loved one that will really blow their socks off - something that really lets them know how you feel. If you could, you'd arrange rose petals on a bed that spells their name - something really special and romantic! But, what if you could with the 'Rose Petals' card, without having to raid your local florists? Personalised cards use the latest in photographic and imaging technology to create realistic personalisation's - even in photographs! If a bed of roses is a little too forward, why not try the 'Candy Hearts' card to show your feelings? This card features a photograph of some delicious sweet candy hearts - all emblazoned with the traditional messages of love. The one in the foreground is different, though - it reads the name of your loved one so realistically they'll think there is a candy heart made just for them!
Of course
personalised cards
are not just about Valentine's Day! The best thing about personalised cards is how innovative and adaptable they are - messages can be changed to suit you, and you are not tied into those twee messages printed on the inside of many high-street cards, either, as you can leave it blank inside or add your own personal message. There are a huge range of photographs and illustrations - some raunchy and a little daring, while others more sedate. If you want to stun granny and make sure you stay her favourite, why not try the 'Embroidery' card featuring a photograph of some delicate and beautiful embroidery - but also your choice of name stitched realistically and elegantly around the edges! She will be amazed by how you managed to get such a perfect card. Alternatively, if you fancy embarrassing a mate with something a little more risqué on their special day, why not choose the 'Beach Babe' card! This saucy lady is strolling along the beach in some rather tight shorts - but there is your friends' name emblazoned on the seat!
Any occasion can be celebrated with personalised cards - there is, of course, a huge range of cards to suit your average celebration such as Christmas or Easter. But you can always send the 'Giant Radish' card just to make someone smile! This card features, well, a giant radish! Held up by a pleased looking fellow, this radish can have your name of choice carved into it! All of the personalised cards are fun and innovative - you truly cannot find anything like it in your average high-street shop.
Although you cannot put a price on making a loved one smile, you'll be delighted to hear that personalised cards are actually often much cheaper than the cards in your average card shop! Fewer overheads mean that, on-line, huge savings can be made - and that's even with the price of postage!
Talking of postage, you may be thinking, that since these cards are created on-order, that it'll take ages for them to arrive to you or to the lucky receiver - but you couldn't be more wrong! Each card is created with careful care and attention, of course, but can often be sent out the very same day you order. Extra envelopes can also be included if you want to post them on to a loved ones yourself, or hand them over personally to see the surprise and delight on their faces. This makes
personalised cards
not only very convenient (especially if you work full-time and can't pop to the shops in the weekdays), but also brilliant if an occasion might have slipped your mind. You can not only get a card out in time (with your choice of messages included both inside and out) but stun them with something really thoughtful and unique. Personalised cards are truly so much more than your average cards.
