Funny Father's Day Greeting Cards for Your Dad

FUNNY GREETING CARDS FOR YOUR DAD

Father's Day is right around the corner (June 19th in 2016), and I made some new greeting cards just for your dad's special day. 

Last year, I pointed out some Father's Day Gift ideas. That collection has grown, too, so check it out! 


Here are the newest greeting cards:

1. This one was featured on Zazzle's front page on May 24th. It's for beer-loving fathers who are proud about their dad bods. Personalize it with your dad's photo and a message inside:


2. This one was my favorite to design. It was inspired by an episode of Battlestar Galactica, where Starbuck gave Adama a card with fake mustaches. I gave it an old-west look and made it so you can upload your photo alongside your dad's. Then, you can "customize" the card and move the mustaches where you need them.

3. PLEASE NOTE: If you're interested in artists' rights, see this blog post. It explains why "yeti" is spelled with two "t"s (yetti) inside the card below: See my post here for an explanation of why 'yeti' is not allowed.

This one is based on a Valentine's Day card I made several years ago. It suddenly hit me that Bigfoot also works well for Father's Day. The inside says, "yetti showed up to wish you a Happy Father's Day!" and you can personalize it.

4. And this one is for the Baby Boomer / hippie dad - check out the inside of the card and you'll see why!


I hope you find a great card and gift for your dad!

Thank you to Pixabay for the wonderful template photos I used on the top two cards.

Unique Personalized Father's Day Gift Ideas

Father's Day Gift Ideas from Zazzle

In 2015, Father's Day is the 21st of June, which might seem like a while off, but it's actually only 22 days away. If you want to order your dad the perfect, personalized gift, now is the time. All these gift ideas from Zazzle are printed on demand when you order them. Here are some of my favorites.


1. For the seafaring, boat-loving, yacht captain sailor type of dad: a personalized captain can koozie to keep his beer cold while he sails the seas. Easily add your dad's name to the anchor:


2. For the Mad Men loving, cool 50s / 60s mid-century modern retro kind of dad: a minimalist clock in the classic atomic starburst style. You can even click "customize it" and add a monogram or change the background color if you like:


3. Father's Day comes only a couple weeks before 4th of July. This shirt is the perfect gift for the dad who loves fireworks and beer. It says, "Fireworks Expert: I drink the booze and light the fuse." Add your dad's name or choose to print it without a name:


4. For the dad who loves man's best friend: a custom dog bed for his favorite pooch. This blue dog bed has paw prints all over it and a bone where you can add the name of your father's favorite companion:


5. For the chef dad who is a fan of Breaking Bad, this funny parody apron has a muffin and the words Baking Dad: I am the One Who Cooks.


6. For the wild west dad, personalize his man cave with this cool set of six custom saloon drink coasters:


7. For the military or hunter dad, make his ride extra special with these green and brown camouflage car mats:

8. Does your dad home brew his own beer? Give him his own brand with these customized bottle labels.  Specify the type of beer and add your dad's photo.

9. For the dad who dislikes social media, this funny gel mousepad has a picture of a carrier pigeon and the words, "In my day, if we wanted to communicate through a twitter-bird, we wrote a note and stuck it on a pigeon."

10. For the gambling, card-playing dad, this cool watch with a card suit design. The art-deco style numbers are white on the black and red hearts, diamonds, spades and clovers. Add your dad's name in red.


11. For the dad with a sense of humor, this funny novelty drink flask. It's made to look like a vintage snake oil advertisement.
