What to write in a birthday card for Dad
Copy one, mix a few, or let Envelopop draft one from details you share. You can edit every word.
“Happy birthday, Dad! Thanks for teaching me to ride a bike, change a tire and laugh at your jokes.”
“To the man who can fix anything except his jokes. Happy birthday!”
“Dad, you're my hero, my coach and my favorite person to call. Have a great birthday.”
“Another year older, still the coolest dad around. Happy birthday!”
“Thank you for always showing up. Today, it's all about you.”

Questions, answered
Can I put their age on the card?
Yes. Add the age they're turning and it appears in the title, like “Happy 75th Birthday, Rose!”. You can edit the title and message any time before you send it.
Can I send it on their actual birthday?
Make it early and set a “Don't open until” date. They'll see a countdown on the envelope until the big day, then it unlocks.
Do they need an app or an account?
Nope. They tap the link and the envelope opens right in their browser, on any phone or computer.
Can I text it or post it?
Yes. Every card can be saved as a GIF or a video, so you can drop it in a group chat, WhatsApp or your stories.
What photos work best?
Clear faces, decent light and one to four people. Old prints work too: snap them with your phone and we'll bring them to life.
