Yes you can easily send a text, DM, call or even tweet - but there's nothing more thoughtful than a birthday card that someone's carefully picked out just for you (complete with a handwritten note, of course).
Etsy is filled withunique goodies that never fail to impress - particularly with their unmatched, one-of-a-kind designs and surprisingly affordable price points. But while Etsy is great, it can also be a bit of a minefield, so we've done the leg work and trawled the site to find the very best birthday and greetings cards for Him and for Her:
