Funny Christmas cards for your husband

The best jokes in a marriage are the ones nobody else would get. Funny cards for your husband can lean on the long-running ones: the satnav, the bins, the thing he swears he never said. Keep it affectionate, and let him know you're still choosing him.

3 things to write inside

Swap in their name. Change anything that doesn’t sound like you.

  1. funny [first name], thank you in advance for taking the lights down in January. I'd also like to note that I know you won't. Love you.
  2. funny [first name], I've been practising my surprised face for the gift you said you didn't want. Merry Christmas. Please act normal.
  3. funny [first name], you're brilliant, you're kind, and you load the dishwasher wrong. I'm keeping you anyway.

Questions people ask

What do you write in a Christmas card to your husband?

Say one thing you noticed this year that he probably doesn't know you noticed. It could be a thing he fixed, or the way he handled a hard week. After that, say you love him in your own words. Short and specific always beats long and general.

Do you still send your husband a Christmas card if you live together?

Plenty of couples do, and it's often the part they keep. A card is a different kind of attention from a present. It's your words, in your voice, in one place. Schedule it for Christmas morning, so he finds it before the day gets busy.

Can I schedule a Christmas card for my husband to open on Christmas morning?

Yes. Pick the card, write your message, and choose the date you want it sent. It reaches him as a link by email or text, and he opens it like an envelope. If he's always the first one up, aim for early.
