What it drew from one sentence

-
My dad, gray beard and all, fishing from his little red rowboat at sunrise, with "Happy Birthday, Dad!" -
Our golden retriever in a Santa hat, asleep under the Christmas tree next to a pile of presents -
A cat astronaut floating past a planet made of birthday cake, with "Happy 30th, Maya!" -

Borrow a famous picture
Old masterpieces, nursery rhymes and Victorian cards belong to everyone, so you can redraw them for one person. Each card below came from the sentence under it.
-
A panda surfing the giant curling wave from Hokusai's The Great Wave off Kanagawa, Mount Fuji small in the distance, with "Happy 40th, Sam!" -
Our dachshund painted as a Dutch Golden Age duke in a white ruff collar and a velvet coat, in a gilded frame, with "Happy Birthday, Dad!" -

Humpty Dumpty sitting back on his brick wall with one arm in a cast and a bandage on his shell, smiling, with "Back together soon, Dan!" -
A retired couple posed like Grant Wood's American Gothic: standing side by side facing forward with straight faces, the man in round glasses and a dark jacket over overalls holding a fishing rod upright like the pitchfork, the woman in a patterned apron with a brooch glancing sideways, the white farmhouse with its pointed Gothic window between their heads, with "Happy Retirement, Tom!" -
The office team posed like Rembrandt's The Night Watch: a warm dark-brown hall with a golden spotlight, everyone in 17th-century militia costume with wide feathered hats and lace collars, the boss in front in black with a red sash, a coworker beside him in pale gold, holding coffee mugs and rolled-up papers instead of pikes, a striped banner raised behind them, with "Good luck, Sam!" -
Two cats sitting together on a rooftop under the swirling sky of Van Gogh's The Starry Night, a dark cypress tree and a sleeping village below, with "Happy Anniversary" -
A tarot card with the title "THE BEST FRIEND" lettered in a banner along the bottom and the roman numeral "XVII" at the top: a woman with curly hair holding two cups of coffee under a crescent moon and eight stars, inside a thin gold tarot-card border -
A Victorian Christmas card: a robin in a tiny top hat delivering a letter through the snow, with a holly border and "Merry Christmas from the Parkers" -
A cheerful goat in a red jacket under glowing red lanterns and plum blossoms, celebrating the Year of the Goat, with "Happy Lunar New Year!"
How the AI card generator works
-
Describe the person and the moment
Who it's for, what they love, and any words you want on the front. Or upload a photo of them, or of their dog, and it becomes the card.
-
It draws the card and writes the inside
In about 30 seconds you get an original picture in the style you pick and a message written for that person. Draw it again, try another style, or change any word.
-
Send it, sign it together, or mail it
Send it as an eCard for $1.99, have it printed and mailed for $9.99 with free US shipping, or make it a group card everyone signs online for $7.98.
AI birthday cards that sound like you know them
Ask for “a birthday card” and you get balloons. Ask for “my brother’s 40th, he still plays bass in a garage band” and you get a card that could only be his. Name one real thing: the hobby, the pet, the age, the joke only the two of you share.
Put a name or a number in quotes and it’s lettered on the front, like “Happy 30th, Maya!” It works for kids’ birthdays, milestone birthdays and belated ones, and the message inside follows the same idea. With a free account you can also make it funnier, warmer or shorter.
AI Christmas cards for family, friends and the office
Draw the family dog in a Santa hat, your street under snow, or the whole team as penguins in scarves. If your crowd says happy holidays instead of Merry Christmas, say so in the description and in the message.
For the office, make it a group card: share one link and everyone signs it online with a note, a photo or a voice message. No accounts, and no card passed desk to desk.
For Christmas Eve, order a printed card by Wednesday, December 16 with free shipping, or by Sunday, December 20 with Priority mail for $10.99. An eCard arrives the moment you send it, or on Christmas morning if you schedule it.

- A whole group can sign the same card from one link, with no accounts.
- You can print it at home: a print-ready PDF is $1.99.
