Funny Christmas cards for your girlfriend
A funny card for your girlfriend gets by on shared jokes. Her commentary on the neighbours' lights, the great hot-water bottle argument, your joint failure to assemble anything. Make her laugh first, then let the kind line catch her off guard.
3 things to write inside
Swap in their name. Change anything that doesn’t sound like you.
- funny [first name], I've bought you a gift. I've also opened the box to check it, and rewrapped it badly. Merry Christmas.
- funny Dear [first name], I'm writing this with a pen that works, and I'd like credit for it. Merry Christmas, I love you.
- funny [first name], you've made me better at plans, snacks and arguing in the car. I'm slightly sorry about the last one.
Questions people ask
What should I write in a Christmas card to my girlfriend?
Choose one thing she does that makes your days easier or funnier, and thank her for it. Then say what you're looking forward to next year. A line that mentions her by detail, not by adjective, will feel written for her alone.
How do I make a Christmas card for my girlfriend feel personal?
Use a reference only the two of you share: a phrase, a place, a disaster you survived together. It doesn't need explaining. If she laughs out loud on reading it, you've got it right. Add a plain closing line so the joke has somewhere to land.
Can I schedule a Christmas card for my girlfriend if I'll be away?
Yes. Write your message, pick the date, and it goes as a link by email or text for her to open like an envelope. Choose Christmas morning if you'd like to be the first thing she sees, and mention when you'll next see her.
