CleverCards, Victoria

How often do you go looking for a birthday card only to find the jokes too cheesy, the tone too saccharine, or the Batman references woefully out of date with current continuity? Fortunately, there's CleverCards. You'll never order a CleverCard that isn't exactly right for the occasion—because you'll get to write it and choose the images yourself. Friends and family members will open cards that take the form of a newspaper front page all about their special day, that bear a photograph of their memoirs, or that feature a superhero with their own face behind the mask. Simply choose your template, upload your pictures, and pen a message meant for their eyes only. (The company also offers customizable invitations and wall calendars that are designed in much the same way.)
