Shopping on-line is the new big thing to do - in fact, nearly everyone is using the Internet to do all of their shopping, from their groceries to their Christmas presents! Recent on-line shopping statistics show that there has been a significant annual increase of 13 - a huge amount considering the downward trend in high street figures due to the current economic climate. In total, over 875 million consumers have shopped on-line, according to Nielsen, and the amount of Internet shoppers has risen by 40 in just two short years!

When it comes to world-wide shopping, the Internet is fantastic. Did you know, the UK is second only to South Korea in percentage of Internet users using the web to shop? The big question, though, is why? Why do people choose to shop on-line?

Well, the answer is simple. It's cheap, convenient, fast and offers a vast range of goods! Did you know you can even buy personalised greeting cards on-line? Completely customisable and easy to create and buy, personalised greeting cards can be created and sent to your door within days - and the range of offer is truly mind-boggling. Have you tried shopping ...
... on the internet for all your cards? It seems silly, but personalised greeting cards are possibly one of the hottest new products on-line today - where else can you buy a card that features not only your own personal messages built-in (handy for unusual names, or unusual occasions) and the latest and most up-to-date crazes and characters well before they hit the shops?

It can be hard to imagine a card that really is completely personalised - no doubt you are thinking of those tacky cards you see in shops where the names of the recipient are crudely pasted into the picture. On-line, personalised greeting cards couldn't be any more different - all the personalisation is done professionally and smoothly - in fact, you will find it hard to imagine that the photographs or images in the cards were not made specifically for your loved ones!

For example, take the 'Happy Birthday Cake' card. This card features a mouth-watering photograph of an iced cake, complete with candles. The twist is, in the icing is the message "Happy Birthday -" then the name of whoever you wish! This name will seem to be written in the delicious icing, and your loved one will think that a cake was iced and photographed just with them in mind! You can use any name, (or nickname), to make it absolutely unique, and really wow someone on their birthday.

Personalised greeting cards can be really fun and different, too! If you think that a cake is a bit too clichor a birthday, and really want to make an impression on someone really special, why not try the 'Spring Cat' card, featuring a photograph of a cat laying in a field of daisies - but these twinkling flowers are spelling out the name of the recipient! Or, if you want to surprise (or embarrass) one of your mates, try the 'Bikini Babe' card, featuring a very attractive lady in a sparkling thong - but, what's that? She has your mates' name tattooed right there on her hip! It truly looks real, and no doubt you will astound your loved ones and have them puzzling over exactly how it could be done!

Of course, personalised greeting cards aren't just for a birthday! There is a huge range available suitable for absolutely any occasion, with congratulations, Valentines, weddings, anniversaries, Christmas and Easter to name just a few. In fact, you can probably make up your own reason to celebrate and give out cards with personalised greeting cards - they are that fun and adaptable! You try finding a card for your dog's birthday, or an extra-special thank-you card catered to them (no twee flowers and gag-worthy poems, here!).

Do they love football? Try the 'Football Flag' card, featuring a huge football crowd holding up a gigantic flag featuring the words "There's only one..." and then the name of your recipient! Personalised greeting cards truly are a way to show you really care - and they are often kept and treasured long after your average high-street card has been chucked into the recycling bin!

In short, on-line greetings cards really are a fantastic way forward - allowing absolutely anyone to surprise and celebrate any occasion, with fantastic customisation and personalisation options making their day that extra bit special. And, the beauty of on line shopping is that you can really afford to buy cards for everyone you love - and have them delivered to your door within days with the minimum of fuss and effort.
