Cleveland, OH, April 26, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Surprises, music, animals and humor sound like a recipe for a stellar birthday party – and applying that formula to a brand-new type of birthday card adds up to a comical one-stop-shop for giving friends and family a memorable birthday experience. Available now, American Greetings latest greeting card invention, the Getting Wiggy™ collection, is full of sidesplitting personality.
You’ll wig out over these cards! Getting Wiggy is a new card line that really brings the laughs. Simply slide the tab up and around the character to reveal their wacky hairdo and silly song. With photo animals donning fun hairstyles, playful lettering and funny sentiments, Getting Wiggy is sure to bring out the party animal in everyone. Designs in this wild collection include a rainbow-haired pig who’s ready to squeal with birthday excitement, a fierce fashionista kitty with pretty pink locks, a punky pup complete with a spikey blue style, and a patriotic eagle saluting a legendary birthday with a red, white and blue ‘do.
“Humorous cards are especially popular for birthdays, and the addition of an unexpected reveal is the ‘icing on top’ – or in this case, it’s the hilarious wig on top!” said Carol Miller, vice president of corporate innovation at American Greetings. “The Getting Wiggy collection is eye-catching, interactive and unforgettable.”
