Show HN: TinyCard – The TinyLetter of Greeting Cards (tinycard.app)

My brother turned 39, I shipped his gift from a shop directly to him (we live in different countries and couldn't travel home due to my son being born)... Shop wouldn't let me add a postcard. So I went looking for a quick e-card service and every single one was painful; Hallmark wants a subscription, Paperless Post has a coin system, Canva technically works but you're designing a greeting card in a full design tool.

I wanted the tinyletter version of this. You write something, pick a photo, get a link; that's it. No account, no email wall and nothing to install. The recipient taps the link and the card opens with a little animation (flip, envelope, fold :D I (Claude) spent way too long getting the CSS 3D to feel right on mobile).

Built on Cloudflare Workers + D1, React Router 7, images from Unsplash. Free cards expire after 14 days. I added a $3.99 one-time premium if you want to schedule it: but the payment doesn't work right now :) ie didn't have a chance to hook up to Stripe yet.

I built this while my newborn son was sleeping next to me.
