BlogThe latest ramblings from the Scribbler team

Rude cards!  It’s part of rude words, rude jokes and the rude expressions that are now part of everyday life.    Just the word rude causes wry smiles, enjoyment, howls of laughter and in some cases indignation from those determined to police our moral values!

Language has changed,  words that were previously unacceptable are now in everyday usage, used lightly and without embarrassment which is at it should be, naturally these words are not for children and those bought up with different standards as there is no intention to offend.  It takes time but the rude words of today no longer have the impact of a few years ago and the more they’re used the less rude they become!

Rude cards have taken the language of today and laughed long and loud,  along with all those who enjoy the humour and what is better than laughter.  It’s a great medicine and if we can find something as simple as a rude card and laugh at and with it, then long may they continue.

It’s the humour of countless people, we laugh at jokes, at comedians and we laugh at cards.   Rude personalised cards are appreciated by all sorts it’s an alternative humour, a great way of communicating with your friends and making them laugh, they’ve filled an empty space and helped to revive the idea of sending cards.

A Typical Rude Card From Scribbler

We love to travel here at Scribbler. And when we hear about someone jetting off somewhere nice while we are stuck in the office selling personalised cards, we are not so mean spirited that we don’t think about the perfect bon voyage cardsto send them when they go. Since it’s that time of year when everybody wants to flee the country but they can’t because they are still totally skint from Christmas, we thought we would dust off some of our favourite Personalised Bon Voyage cards from the Scribbler website. No matter how many bon voyage cards you are sent from Scribbler, sometimes nothing can prepare you for the horrors you find on a cheap package deal. We’ve never encountered something quite this bad though..!

Never Book Cheap Internet Holidays

This is more like it – a fun and friendly monster to wish you on your way. this would be the perfect bon voyage card to send a child (if the child was a prodigy that spoke fluent French and understood what bon voyage meant).

While it’s best not to fill your loved ones with fear before a long voyage, we all know what it’s like to be strip-searched, that feeling of utter helplessness at the border when the surly policemen puts on a latex glove – oh, wait, maybe we don’t actually know what that’s like…

Well this is more like it – a fun filled colourful personalised bon voyage card to get them excited about their travels…

People have many reasons for going on a trip, and when you send Bon Voyage Cards before they go, they’ll be sure to think about you when they are travelling.

Whether they are going travelling or moving abroad or running away from home, you want to make sure that they have fond memories of you (even if you don’t deserve it).

And what if, heaven forbid, your loved one forgot to wish you Bon Voyage, you’d be pretty gutted. That is until you saw that they used scribbler.com to deliver one internationally to your destination.

Women associate Valentines Day with romance, love and spontaneity, where men see it as a challenge to meet there partners expectations. A day with such potential often ends in disappointment because the lack of preparation the couple have devoted to the big day. Whether you can or can’t afford a splash up meal and expensive, the basis to start the day off well is to give a well thought out and chosen personalised valentines card.

A well-chosen personalised valentines card can earn you serious brownie points, so here at Scribbler we thought we’d give you a few pointers in the right direction. Depending on your situation you have to decide which route you’ll go down for choosing a card. Either the loving, cute and romantic angle or the raunchy, rude and crude style.

If your relationship in box fresh and you’re in the honeymoon period still then go for a more loving choice of card as the relationship is still not ripe and you could offend your lover. The Long-term relationships that have a strong bond and trust will  then go wild and send some dirt. The great aspect to sending a personalised valentines card is that you have the opportunity to make it your own and personalise it in the way you speak to your partner. Add a little nickname or a photo of you both to make each other feel special on Valentine’s Day.

There a many other personalised valentines card websites which sell the cliché soppy valentines cards which to be honest make us want to bulk. Be creative, be fun and make this Valentines Day unique with a personalised valentines card from Scribbler.com

The Scribbler.com team were looking over our range of mothers day cards earlier, in preparation for the frenetic orgy of card buying that our personalised cards website will doubtless undergo in the second week of March, and I found myself wondering what the most poignant song would be to really represent Mothering Sunday.

As usual I decided to conduct some ad hoc market research around the office and with strangers who crossed my path during the day, and asked everyone to think of one song that summed up how they felt about their good old mum.

The usual suspects were suggested, but I wanted something special, a song of epic proportions that would blow everyone else’s run of the mill musical choices clean out of the water.

And that’s when it hit me.

There could only be one mothers day song.

And that song is Treat Your Mother Right by Laurence Tureaud AKA Mister T, that featured on his 1984 motivational video Be Somebody or Be Somebody’s Fool.

Watch it and weep, and if you can find something better I will be tempted to shower you with free personalised cards.

When choosing a Valentines card for a loved one, always err on the side of caution.
Hold on – did we just say that? Well we didn’t mean it and today, kids, we’re going to discuss our favourite ways to to send Valentines day cards to the person you love (lust?).

1. The romantic way…
Pick a really romantic card. We don’t actually think that the whole ‘anonymous’ thing is very romantic (a bit creepy actually) – it’s best to wear your heart on your sleeve and choose a personalised card with your loved ones name on it – and make it a large one. If you are feeling really romantic, send a lovely bunch of flowers with your card.

2. The cheapskate way
The cheapskate way is much like the romantic way, but instead of sending a bunch of flowers with your card, choose a photo upload valentines card, and use a picture of you holding a bunch of flowers, so that you lover will get the subliminal message that you have bought flowers, when all you’ve actually done is raid the neighbour’s flowerbeds and taken a snap with your phone.

3. The ego deflating way
This one’s a cracker. Get online and order multiple Valentines cards, but only personalise one of them. This will make your loved one think that as well as the personalised card from regular ol’ you, they also have a string of anonymous admirers. Let them strut around for a few days before breaking the news. This will make them realise that not only do you love them so much that you sent them loads of cards, but also that you’re the only person that’s remotely interested in them.

4. The sexy way
This is probably best if you are already in a relationship with the recipient or are confident of success. Choose one of our rude valentines cards, and personalise it with a naughty message inside. If they don’t take out a restraining order you’ll know you’re in with a chance.

5. The creepy way
For us the creepy way to send a Valentines card is also the traditional way. Send a card anonymously and never tell them that it was you. It’s a bit silly because you’ll never benefit from it, but if you must do it this way, at least choose a good one (try one of our funny Valentines cards).
