What To Write In A Greeting Card? Here Are Some Wishes & Message Ideas For Every Occasion

Tired of sending out pre-made greeting cards with boring wishes and messages? Besides providing you with cool-looking custom greeting cards and holiday cards, we’d like to help you with some trendy wishes and messages for yearly occasions.

Readymade greeting cards are not bad. Sometimes, we may get lucky with a perfect message already embedded inside the card, but other times, we’re simply given a blank canvas to write whatever comes to mind first. Greeting card messages can be as general or personalized as you wish, especially if you’re not a wordsmith. People don’t expect the most, but it’s still good to put in some type of effort.
