Don't forget about the text! Grandma's favorite song lyrics, a quote she loves, or a heartfelt message can be beautifully written on your card.

Use calligraphy pens or fonts to make your text look elegant and attractive. You can also experiment with different colors or types who's add your text for added fun.

Assembling Your Card
