Thirsty Business Greeting Card Collection

Thirsty Business Greeting Card Collection

My latest greeting card collection is now live on my website! It’s called Thirsty Business and as you can probably figure out it’s a beverage themed collection. I’ve included hot, cold and alcoholic drinks, so there should be something for everyone 😃

Drinks seem to get us through so many different situations in life. I always have a cup of coffee to kickstart me at the beginning of the day (or to revive me mid-morning). If I want a bit of liquid comfort then a cup of tea or hot chocolate does the trick. A glass of wine unwinds us after a stressful day. We celebrate with a bottle of fizz. We enjoy cocktails, wine or beer on a night out with our friends. And we refresh ourselves with a cold drink on hot days. Pretty much everything we do is accompanied by a nice drink! So this card collection is a celebration of all of that.

All sorts of occasions

A wide range of occasions is covered too – birthdays, anniversaries, friendship, missing you and of course Father’s Day. I offer bundle deals where you can save if you buy 3 or 5 cards at a time, so go ahead and stock up.

Here’s a selection from the range but you can view the full Thirsty Business collection here. Why not sign up for my newsletter while you’re there?

Choosing a 60th birthday wishes card

Whiskey 60th birthday card

How do you choose a card to send 60th birthday wishes? 60 years old is an appreciable milestone, so you don’t want to give just any old card. I always think that if you’re going to go to the trouble of giving a card then it might as well be a great one!
Of course this applies to any milestone birthday, but I’ll use a 60th as an example. You have a few options if you don’t want to go the generic card route (and why would you?)

  • Choose a card that emphasises the 60
  • Choose a card that is tailored to them personally
  • Choose a card that does both!

If it’s someone you actually give a crap about then why not do both? (And if they’re not, then WHY are you sending them a card?!)

Make it personal

By choosing a card that shows that you remember that it’s their 60th birthday and that you know them well enough to know what they like, you’re also showing that you’ve given this card some thought and not just bought the first thing you saw.

For instance if you know they love their wine, then you could send a card like this one…

But if they’re more of a whiskey drinker, you could choose this one…

You could also give a card that reflected their favourite hobby, TV show or anything else you know they like. If they’re known for being a chocaholic, or pizza guzzler, or coffee fanatic… well, you get the idea!

Custom 60th birthday wishes

For extra brownie points, you could customise the card with their name. This way they’ll know you put some extra effort in, in advance, and didn’t just pick a card off a rack at the last minute.

You could also make a card yourself if you’re that way inclined, or if you have kids you could get them to do it, with a little bit of overseeing.

And if you really want to go all out then you could go for a professionally printed but completely custom card like the one below. These are all completely one of a kind, as I draw the cartoon portrait from photos that are sent to me. You can’t get much more personal than that 🙂

There are so many great cards out there to choose from, so there’s really no excuse for sending a crappy one… And obviously these tips apply to choosing any milestone birthday card, not just choosing 60th birthday wishes.
Do you have any other tips for choosing birthday cards that are extra special? If so let me know on social media or by dropping me an email. I’d love to hear from you.
