23 Father's Day Cards That Will Make Him Smile

Finding a special gift for Father’s Day can sometimes be a challenge. But whatever you decide to surprise him with, you’ll always want to have a heartwarming card attached that expresses how you truly feel about having him in your life. But you don’t have to stop at one card...

I could literally stand in the greeting card section forever. No matter the occasion, I’m always captured with how many different ways we can say Happy Birthday, Congratulations, or even Get Well. And the cards can range from serious to poetic and funny. To help dwindle down my selection process, I usually go with how I want the person to feel when I give it to them, and if you’re anything like me, too many options means I’m buying more than one. Because it’s OK to make their heart swell from being overwhelmed with love, then follow that up with a good belly laugh, right? And there are Father’s Day Cards that can touch on all those emotions.

This list will help you with things you’ve wanted to say to your hero, and even enlighten you with words you didn’t think of putting together. Either way, you’ll find something that will make him feel just how important he is to you. And some are as easy as sending an email or downloading to print.
