It is your mom’s birthday, and you are pondering on what to get her. Her special day is coming up really soon. You have come up with the same ideas you have had for the past two years. This year you wanted the gift to be different. How about a large card? We do not mean book size, but a card that is either two, three of four feet tall. Can you image getting a card that is almost as tall as you are? Well now you can.

You can get the cards from BigFunnyCards.com. There you will find Birthday, Valentine, Get Well, Weddings and Thinking of You cards. Even though there are a few dozen templates to us, they are hoping to have more than 250 choices to pick from in the next few years. What is also great is that you can upload your pictures from a digital camera. The price of cards range from $19.50 to $44.50 and they are 100% recyclable.

So why did they come up with this idea?

Steve Grubbs, the CEO of VictoryStore.com, which is the company behind the cards said, “My Vice President, Christine Gosney, went through a spell with cancer last spring. We were trying to think of a way to provide her with a pick me up’ as well as a card large enough for everyone to sign. So we created the first Big Funny Card. We already have the machinery to print and create large coroplast products, so it was a nice fit. We took it to the hospital and the nurses had never seen anything quite like it.”

So far, BigfunnyCards.com has sold over 300 cards.

”We have been surprised at how people have used them. We didn’t realize how many people wanted to upload their own photos and designs. The uniqueness is three fold: first, they’re the largest greeting cards in the world, second they are able to personalize with both text and photos. Finally, they can be cut into unique shapes, for example roses.

The free shipping is very attractive to many.”
