International Cat Day
Today, 8th August 2023, is known as International Cat Day! It was started in 2002 by the International Fund for Animal Welfare, and since 2020 has been looked after by International Cat Care here in the UK. And because pets are one of the family for many we have a range of Cat related cards and gifts. You can also filter any collection on the site by selecting Cat in the relation menu - yes we have plenty of pussies in our Christmas cards too. Cats help many people to help reduce anxiety and stress amongst and often bring much...
A whole new experience
If you are a new customer of Dean Morris Cards - hello, welcome, it is lovely to have you here. If you are one of our fantastic existing customers you may have noticed we have had some work done! When we opened our first online store back in the dark ages of the Internet in the late 20th Century there wasn't much available in terms of e-commerce software.

Send a Card With Pride

We all met up on a bright sunny Saturday morning. We had...
The appeal of rude Greeting Cards

They are right that a lot of our cards are a bit rude, some are outrageously naughty, but we have an awful lot more cards without any swearing then we do with. Back in the late 20th Century when Dean Morris Cards was started we were a pioneer of filth! Most companies preferred to stear clear of of the more coarse language we brought to the market - cards with fluffy bunny's, formular one...
Mothers Day
We have had "Flowers from the Garage" day, and the next annual celebration we are looking forward to is Eurovision! No it's not, it's the Coronation!! No ... it's Mother's Day! We have of course launched some lovely new Mothers Day cards available on the site now. We will be sending some newsletter emails about the new cards and reminders to ensure you get your orders in. But we also know for some this is quite an emotional day, so you can update your profile to opt out of Mothers Day cards, or Fathers day while you are there.
