The card is a bit tacky, but it's more about the words inside for me... If the inside AND the outside are a bit shit, then that says a lot.

If you are someone who likes a card, then it's hardly a sacrifice for him to make sure you have a nice one with some kind words. PP sneering about giving cards to partners are being nasty.

if DH got me similar for my birthday I'd think he'd lost his mind.
what is wrong with people on these threads? it's a perfectly normal card.

Looks OK to me. DH remembered it was Christmas in time to buy a card and write something in it, though we don't know what. He probably thought the picture and message are 'cute'.

@HeyPrestoVinegar

ah you're right

in which case I would be more concerned about the lack of a marriage certificate than the title of my Christmas card

Yes

I don’t see the problem with it.

I think I was expecting something more romantic (nice romantic words on the card or handwritten inside) 🤷🏽‍♀️

Is there a change from previous years?

We don't do cards to each other, but if you normally do and this is a change I can understand more why it is bothering you.

I couldn't get upset about something that, I assume, will be in the recycling box in a couple of days, but that's just my opinion. It clearly wasn't adequate for you and that's all that matters.

All cards are a waste of money and resources
