If you want to make sure your brother or sister is loved on their special day — however far apart they may be (physically or figuratively) — sending them a card will do the trick.

Happy birthday sister
We’re kicking things off with one of the loveliest cards in the birthday card collection. It’s sweet, loving, and beautiful. So essentially, it’s the perfect birthday card for your sister.
For the younger sibling
Did someone invent a time machine? When did they get so grown up!?! This card by Sea & Lake Paper Co. is adorable and funny and true. Seriously, why did they have to grow up?
For the younger sibling, but sweeter
Another great option for a birthday card for a younger sibling, this hand painted design by 1Canoe2 is a bit less quirky and a bit more loving. The use of the pun is adorable. The sweetness level of this card is almost too much… Almost.
For the bestie sister
When your sister (and best friend) has her birthday it’s your job to make it the greatest day ever. And this card is just the start.
For the outdoorsy sibling
Did y’all grow up outdoors? Camping weekends with the family is where you probably had some of your greatest bonding moments. Use their birthday as a chance to reminisce on the years’ past and plan some future family camping adventures.
For the sibling that has everything (including a good sense of humor)
If you love to joke and kid around with your sibling, this card will likely give them a smile. But, of course, you know best. The last thing you’d want to do is send a birthday card that upsets them.
For the sibling that took the pressure off of you
And probably made your childhood way more exciting. Do let them know all (or some) of the reasons why this card is so true.
For the party-buddy sibling
Ahh.. You two probably have some great memories — go ahead, get a little nostalgic in your message!
For the sibling that knows you really do love them
But also has a sense of humor.
For just about any sibling
It says it right there on the front. It’s got a little joke and a delightfully colorful design. It’s really just the perfect card for any sibling.
For the photogenic sibling
Have a really great photo of the two of you? It could be from when you two were growing up or anything recent. This photo birthday card is perfect for reminding your brother or sister of your sisterly/brotherly love.
Birthday Cards for Mom
Mom has been there for you probably more times than you can remember. The very least you can do is send her a lovely birthday card. If not lovely, then perhaps make it a funny birthday card. However you spin it, you should be making mom’s special day — special. If mom’s birthday is just around the corner, don’t wait until the last minute to send her a card. Postable’s selection of Birthday cards for mom will likely have a design that tickles your fancy. While shooting out a quick text sounds like a good idea right now, that’s no way to show mom you care.
If you always intend on sending a proper card, but year after year you end up sending mom a text (or a dreaded e-card) because time never seems to be on your side — send a birthday card for mom without leaving your couch [right now]. You can still show mom your love without having to go to the store for a card and stamps or ever stepping foot in the post office.
Photo birthday card for mom
Have a nice photo to share with mom? She’ll love seeing your smiling face on her birthday card and may even put it up on the fridge. Upload your own photo to this stellar birthday card by Postable.
Mom’s my hero
Not every birthday card will have the words ‘Birthday’ on the front. There, we said it. This beautiful hand painted design by 1Canoe2 is the perfect birthday card for mom to tell her just how much she means to you.

Floral Bouquet
Sometimes sticking to a classic really pays off. This stunning floral birthday card will surely make mom feel loved on her special day. The flowers practically jump off this card, but you should probably get her some real ones too.
Mom the baking Queen!
We had to include this delightful little pun birthday card by A Jar of Pickles! This would be perfect for the mom that makes the best chocolate chip cookies! Or you know, just loves to bake.
Birthday Cards for Dad
Have a dad that’s gone out of his way — every chance possible — to make your special day a success? Or maybe he’s been there to sneak you that chocolate chip cookie when you needed it most. Or maybe he’s been there to give you all the life advice you could ever need (and then some)? Whatever awesome things the dad in your life has done, be sure to make him feel all sorts of special by sending dad a birthday card.
Let’s celebrate the shit out of you
Starting dad’s birthday card list with something a little edgy. If you don’t think dad would take kindly to this card, then obviously please don’t send it. On the other hand if you’re sitting there giggling at how much dad would beam after opening the envelope… Don’t wait. Just send!
I love dad
There are plenty of ways to show dad you care on his special day. As with most things, you don’t have to reinvent the wheel here… Just tell dad you love him. It really can be that simple. We love the simplicity and the directness of this dad birthday card and we think he will too!
POP
On the other hand, if dad likes things to pop then this very loud comic styled birthday card will be perfect.
For the space-y dad

It really doesn’t take a whole lot to impress your grandparents. They love you more than you’ll ever know so just about every slightly good thing you do makes them proud. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try your best to make them proud and show them just how much you love them!
A classic happy birthday grandpa
It’s simple and classic. Add a picture of your smiling face — even better if you have a picture of the two of you — and write a personal message.
A birthday card for grandma
Grandma will love this simple and lovely photo birthday card. Write your personal message and let grandma know how much you love her.
