The trend these days is to post a birthday greeting on a friend or family member’s Facebook page or other social media — and that’s it. Yet there remains a minority of people who reach out in other ways.
I’ve written in the past about:
- Keeping a birthday calendar
- Social media birthday etiquette
- The hardship of wrapping a gift well if you actually decide to give/send a present.
Today, though, I thought I’d share some of the actual paper birthday cards that I found at a Charlotte shop — Paper Skyscraper — to demonstrate the wide range of options out there if you took that extra step to send birthday mail. Yes, this could be considered a hint as my birthday is less than a month away!

I also appreciate the humor in this one:
Or this one’s pretty funny too:
But there is a plethora of even more risque ones that I don’t need on my mantelpiece:

Look forward to the animals and small children collection of cards I’m sharing next week! In the meantime, there’s still time to take my crazy short survey on birthdays which I am using to non-scientifically sample people on my favorite day of the year.
