7 Reasons WHY... You SHOULD Send A REAL Birthday Card

1 - A paper birthday card sent through the mail gives you an A+ for effort. Any two-bit robot or spammer can email you "HB."

2 - Heck, an actual card is almost like a wrapped gift these days.

3 - You can get a nasty case of carpal tunnel syndrome from posting online "Happy Birthdays" to your 5,000 friends on FB.

4 - A good card is like a friggin' work of art. You can laminate it, frame it, hang it over your desk to remind yourself that someone celebrates you.

5 - Bragging rights. You can't display a birthday text message on your fireplace mantel without looking a little cheesy.

6 - Texture, baby! Feel the glossy, crinkly, velvety, fuzzy, smooth, sexy surface of a physical card.

7 - Less calories than cake; tastes better than kale. I love a brand whose logo features a crown.REMEMBER TO LEAVE A COMMENT & win free cards!  I Feel Your Pain by Barb Best is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported License
