Send a photo of someone you love and a short recording of your voice. Nama's workshop turns them into a one-of-a-kind 3D animated video message — for birthdays, holidays, or just because you're miles apart.
Three simple steps. If you can text a photo and leave a voicemail, you can send a Cartooned with Love.
Any clear photo of your loved one, and a short recording of your message — straight from your phone. We'll show you exactly how.
Your person becomes a 3D cartoon character — speaking your message in your real recorded voice, in a scene made for the occasion.
A finished video, ready to send on to whoever needs a smile — and keep forever. No apps, no accounts, no fuss.
Every order comes with a choice, because not everybody wants a mirror. Some of us prefer the movie-star version — Nama certainly does.
A cartoon that looks just like the photo — same face, same smile, same sparkle. For the folks who light up when they recognize themselves.
A flattering, dreamy cartoon character inspired by your person — keeps their signature features, adds a little Hollywood. Perfect for anyone who never likes photos of themselves.
Here's exactly the kind of little video that lands in your inbox — one for every occasion.
The card that sings back — in your voice.
Just because someone crossed your mind.
When you can't be there in person.
For every proud, big-news moment.
A note on these samples: the voice you hear is Nama's own AI-cloned voice — the same honest AI magic we tell you about. When you order, you choose: send us your loved one's real recorded voice, or let us gently clone a voice from a short sample. Either way, you'll always know exactly how your video was made.
One personalized talking-cartoon video, made to order just for you. Full pricing and ordering live in our Etsy shop — opening very soon.

Behind this cartoon is a real grandmother in a real Minnesota studio — a retired jack-of-all-trades who spent a lifetime making things, and now makes video magic with the help of AI. Yes, AI — openly and proudly. Every video is set up, checked, and finished by these two human hands, with a whole lot of love in between. I started this because a voice saying "I love you" beats a paper card every single time — especially for those of us whose hands don't write like they used to.
The honest answers, in plain English.
Easier than you think! On iPhone, open the built-in Voice Memos app, tap the red button, talk, tap stop. On Android, look for Recorder or Voice Recorder. Twenty seconds of you talking from the heart is all we need — and we'll send you friendly instructions with every order.
A clear, front-facing photo where we can see the face well — the kind you'd frame. Phone photos are perfect. If a photo won't work well, we'll tell you before we start, not after.
Yes — proudly and openly. AI tools do the animating; a real grandmother does the caring. Every video is personally set up, quality-checked, and finished by hand. We believe in being honest about how the magic works. It's kind of our whole thing.
Please allow 3–5 business days from the moment we have your photo and voice recording. Good things come from unhurried workshops.
We love this question. Ask us through the Etsy shop — if we can do your critter justice, we will.
Your photo and recording are used for one thing only: making your video. We never sell or share them, and we delete the source files after your order is complete. The full plain-English promise is in our privacy policy.
