It might be a birthday card instead of a Christmas Card, but we couldn’t help thinking there is something strangely appropriate about this design by American greetings card publisher, Nobleworks, a specialist in humour cards!
Nobleworks says their mission is to be “as funny and as irreverent, crass and as inappropriate as we can be! Our goal is to resuscitate a card industry that for years has been putting us to sleep with their dull, sweet sentiments. Whether you’re shopping retail for that one perfectly hilarious card that’ll make your ornery great uncle actually crack a smile, or to stock your store with wholesale cards suitable for any season, you are sure to find the greatest, most memorable greeting cards that’ll live up to anyone’s taste, or lack thereof.
“1980 B.C. (Before e-Cards) we’ve been making cards right here in the U.S. that have been making people laugh. That’s four decades of laughter and counting. We’re a family-owned business, too, so that means we disagree and fight a lot and only occasionally like each other (kidding, not really). Although we stock our share of traditional greeting cards suitable for any occasion and even the most puritanical people on your list, NobleWorks really stands out for humor cards that flaunt the limits of good taste and civility. We specialize in cards that dare to be noticed and remembered; from stinky fart jokes guaranteed to light up the 6-year-old brain that lurks in the heart of every red-blooded (knack included) American men and women, Trump supporters and Democracy lovers alike, to the occasional f-bomb and zany humor”.
We’ve loved Nobleworks ever since encountering them for the first time at the equally fabulous National Stationery Show – now repurposed as a Gift and Stationery section within NY Now – which takes place annually in New York.
