A Doozy Love Story

We got the most wonderful email from our customer Pam. Her story begins in February of 2010 in Swansea, England. Pam met a man, Ira, through an online dating service, and it just so happened it was Ira’s 50th birthday.  She took a courageous step and emailed him our Dumptruck Full of Candles ecard:

Reaching out to this new love interest proved to be very lucky for her! Pam told us he was really amused and touched when he received the card.  Well, the pair continued talking, eventually met in-person, and began seriously dating.

A year later, Pam and Ira were engaged. She recently reached out to us and relayed her story, and when we heard it we were all really touched! Pam wanted a digital image of the ecard so that she could give it to Ira as a memento they could both hold onto and cherish for life. Pam was nice enough to tell us that the Dumptruck Full of Candles ecard “no doubt contributed to the formation of our initial friendship and romance.”

We couldn’t be happier with the outcome of Pam’s and Ira’s story. Here is a picture of their wedding and the happy couple in present day.

      

 

 

 

 

 

 

Congratulations Pam and Ira on finding love.

 

 

 

Champagne and Cake: The Joys of Summertime Weddings

Ahhh the joys of summer weddings. Wedding Cake, champagne, and dancing. I love diving into a chocolate groom’s cake with a glass of bubbly! At New England weddings I wear a hat and enjoy the boats in the marina. In the South, I fan myself and drink a mint julep.

There are, of course, downsides to summer weddings. Mosquitoes, sweltering heat and not to mention expensive plane tickets, gift registries, and cocktail dresses! When I can’t afford to fly across country to wish my friend her best on the big day, I send her one of our animated wedding ecards.

Summer weddings make me think of some great old timey wedding songs, like Going to the Chapel by the Dixie Cups, or Today I Met the Boy I’m Going to Marry by Darlene Love. Here’s a great link to a 1967 video of Dionne Warwick singing Burt Bachrach’s Don’t Make Me Over. There’s nothing like a black and white video from a bygone era with a swooning voice! Puts me in the mood for love!


 

Summertime Birthdays!

The Doozy team of scientists are in the Doozy laboratory hard at work to create digital birthday cake.

Birthday Cake

It won’t taste like microchips (or potato chips, for that matter!) but rather like traditional buttercream. We hope to offer digital birthday cake in both chocolate and vanilla for our customers and to release Red Velvet flavor sometime next year.

JUST KIDDING!! But seriously, what should you mail your kids who have summer birthdays if they’re away at camp? Candy, games, markers, journal, or …. a free birthday ecard! Okay, this was news to me, but I just found out kids have access to computers these days at camp. When I was at camp, we were forced to write them on a postcard or paper. Now there are whole businesses devoted to keeping you in constant digital contact with your faraway children (wasn’t the idea behind camp originally supposed to be to give your kids wings to fly?!?)

Anyway, you can send your son or daughter a CUTE free birthday ecard from DoozyCards.com like this one: Happy Birthday to Ewe Ecard

Have little brother or sister send this soulful, funky free birthday ecard: Funky Penguin Birthday for Brother Ecard

Now I’ve got to get back to the laboratory. They need me for testing the icing. Should we dye it pink, purple, or blue? Rainbow, I say!

Surf Baby ecard

SO CUUUUTE!

I’ve got a few friends with summer birthdays – zodiac signs Compassionate Cancers, Wholehearted Leos, and Successful Virgos. Send your summer birth-time friends free ecards from our Free Birthday ecards section.

For some of my girlfriends, I give them a little risqué humor. Such as this Sex and the Kitties ecard.

I have some friends with an anniversary to celebrate this summer.Whether they’re commemorating a wedding, business venture, or friendship, our Free Anniversary ecards are a great way to say “Way to GO, hon!!” We have plenty of fun free e cards for that anniversary occasion celebrating one year to sixty years. I just love this Grand Anniversary ecard that celebrates the French monarchy. Mostly because it reminds of the famous British monarchy couple – Wills and Kate – who recently visited Los Angeles. Send this card to a grand couple in your life.

Stay tuned as Doozy will continue to add to our free e-cards section over time. It’s the perfect way to wish someone well on a holiday or any daily occassion!
