In the US and some other countries, National Grandparents Day . . .

. . . is celebrated in September. In the UK, Grandparents Day falls in October but it isn't celebrated as much here as Mother's Day and Father's Day. 

In the US, there is even a Grandparents Day song and you can read how other countries and cultures celebrate their grandparents here.

Even if you feel that we have greeting cards for too many holidays and occasions, I'm sure you'll find a Grandparents Day card here that will much appreciated! 


First up, a couple of Grandparents Day cards designed for you to add your own photo. Especially appreciated if your grandparents don't live close by!

Introducing my Friends from the Old Folks Home!

Maybe it's because I'm not so young myself that I seem to be able to design greeting cards and motifs for gifts for the older generation?

They're mostly for men but a few ladies have crept in amongst them. And none of them seems really ready to put their feet up just yet - except, perhaps, for 'Ernest', who seems quite firmly rooted in his chair -
