The Rebel Manifesto

Because not everything that matters fits in a Hallmark card.

At The Gifting Rebel, we’re rebelling against fake smiles, sugar-coated words, and “perfect” moments that don’t exist. We make cards and gifts that speak the way real people do — with honesty, humour, heart, and the occasional curse word.

We believe strength isn’t about pretending everything’s fine — it’s about showing up anyway. It’s about laughing in the middle of chaos, saying the hard things, and celebrating the people who get it. The ones who don’t need small talk — they need truth, a bit of wit, and a reminder that someone’s in their corner.

Every product we make starts with a real conversation. The kind you’d have with a mate who sees through your nonsense, calls you out, and loves you harder for it. Sometimes that looks like a sarcastic jab. Sometimes it looks like a quiet “I’ve got you.” Both are love — just spoken in different dialects.

We’re not here to make everything pretty. We’re here to make it real.
Because the best gifts aren’t perfect — they’re personal.

The Rebel Code

We don’t do fluff. We don’t do filters. And we definitely don’t do fake. Here’s what The Gifting Rebel stands for:

Honesty Over Hallmark
We say what we mean — even when it’s awkward, hilarious, or painfully true. Real beats perfect every time.

Connection, Not Convention
Our cards don’t whisper “thinking of you.” They shout, “I see you — I really know you.” That’s where the magic is.

Humour Is Healing
We believe in the power of dark jokes, dumb jokes, and lovingly brutal ones. Laughter is our love language.

Strength in Showing Up
Real strength? It’s messy. It’s raw. It’s being there for someone — even when you don’t have the right words.

No Pretending, Ever
We celebrate real friendships, real feelings, and real rebels who show up, speak up, and give a damn.
