Who remembers the days when people all around the world started using emails? I do. I often miss those times when I was traveling abroad and sending heartfelt emails to my friends, sharing my experiences, wishing them well, and attaching a few pictures from my trip. I recall how exciting it was to receive an email from a friend. That’s how we stayed in touch: by exchanging emails.
A few days ago, after a long time, I reached out to a friend to ask how she and her kids were doing. Her response was overwhelming, filled with nearly ten hearts in pink and red, kisses, and a flurry of sparkling emojis. While I was initially shocked by the rapid stream of hearts, stars, virtual hugs, virtual kisses, ect, frankly, in the end felt a sense of alienation and coldness from it.
Yes, communication has become effortless, but where are the meaningful feelings of receiving an email or, for those who are older, a postcard?
Today, email is primarily used for business advertising, billing, and support services, rather than for personal communication—what a shame! Email is a wonderful way to show someone you care with minimal effort, and I believe private email should not disappear from our lives just yet!
How can we enhance the experience and make it exciting again? I wrote this blog, so I must have some solutions.
Sure! If you're not familiar with it, let me introduce you to the Dcard application!
So, what is Dcard?
Dcard is a user-friendly application that simplifies the process of creating beautiful and personalized emails (or E-cards for those who prefer other messaging apps). With a wide range of templates for every occasion, from birthdays to weddings, Dcard makes it easy to express your feelings.

After selecting a template, you can easily upload your personal photos and add your own text. The result? You’ll create a beautiful HTML email that looks like the professional promotional emails you often receive, but this one is entirely yours and completely private.
Once it’s ready, you press the application button, which copies the email to your clipboard, opens your email box (Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook, etc.), simply paste it into a new email (Ctrl + p) and send it to your recipient. Dcard is designed with user-friendliness and security in mind, so you can trust that your emails will be both easy to create and safe to send.

And this is it; you got it, a beautifully designed email of greeting, sharing, or invitation that makes someone behind the screen feel like you care.
If you want to send it via WhatsApp or any other social media platform, it's even simpler. You can share it as a picture, which will likely have the same effect—spreading happiness with a personalized and well-designed message.
