Receiving happy birthday cards has always been an afterthought for me. I would stop by the drug store on the way to a friend's birthday party and pick up a happy birthday greeting card, I would sign it, and tape it to the box of the gift that I had already bought. I never really thought that a happy birthday card could be anything but a tasteless, basic greeting. It is really nothing more than a custom - something to prove that you had thought of your buddy enough to give them your best wishes along with your gift.
I did not know there was so many kind of of birthday gift cards existing, and the creativity that goes into some of them.

That all changed when I fist received a happy birthday e-card from one of my friends. If you do not know what a birthday e-card is, it is basically a greeting card that you can send over the Internet to someone on his birthday. The very first one I received was actually one of those animated happy birthday cards. It came with a whole flash animation, complete with a story. On the whole, it was an animated animal thinking about all the things that he would like to receive for his birthday.

In the end, however, all he got was happy birthday cards. I think that the gift that the character was getting was actually supposed to be the happy birthday card that I was getting at the time. I thought it was cute and funny, but most of all, it made me understand that with my own birthday greetings I could be more creative. Since then, I have tried all kinds of things with happy birthday cards!

Of course, you don't have to send happy birthday cards over the Web to find one that does funny and cute things. In fact, you can find singing happy birthday cards on the market these days. While they don't actually "sing", they do play a tune on an annoyingly high-pitched FM chip. They are funny, quirky and cute. Someone usually appreciate these happy birthday cards for about three minutes, after which they are becoming very annoying. You may also create your own happy birthday cards. I suppose that back in the days, this was how all the people did it. Nowadays, however, it is somewhat of a lost art. I highly recommend trying it. To be able to make something pretty for someone that you love is very rewarding.
