Card Hub: Cards, Pin Badges And Card Messages By Occasion

You're in the right place for the card hub: find the right card, badge and message. There are 134 ready-to-copy lines on this page, grouped into birthdays, milestone birthdays and weddings, engagements and anniversaries, plus more below - pick one, change a detail so it sounds like you, and you're done.

Pick the occasion below and you get three things in one place: the cards we make for it, the pin badges that post in the same envelope, and the message guides that tell you what to write.

Cards and badges are designed and printed in the UK. Order on a working day and it usually goes out the same day.

The message guides are free to copy - pick a line and change one detail so it sounds like you.

How to write it so it lands

• Buy the card and the badge together - it posts as one parcel and costs one delivery.
• Write the message out on paper first if it's a one-off card.
• For a milestone birthday, pair the age card with the year they were born.

Frequently asked questions

How do I use this page?

Find your occasion, then choose the card range, add a pin badge if you want a small gift with it, and open the message guide underneath for something to write.

Can a pin badge be posted with a card?

Yes. Pin badges are flat and light, so they go in the same envelope as the card - one order, one delivery.

Are the message guides free?

Completely. Copy any line into a card, no sign-up and nothing to buy.

What if my occasion isn't listed?

Browse all cards and pick the closest design - plenty of our cards are deliberately occasion-free so you can write whatever the moment needs.
