I'd like to try subbing some greeting cards, which I've never done. Crit from some of the experienced folks on the board would be appreciated, although you can email me at

Here's one I wrote for Thanksgiving. Picture a card with a drawing of a full Thanksgiving-type meal:
Outside:
Green beans and cabbage and corn and potatoes,
Lettuce and carrots and yams and tomatoes,
Freshly baked bread from the wheat of the field,
Pancakes with syrup the maple trees yield,
Turkey with stuffing and cranberry jelly:
With a meal like that you can fill up your belly.
So let us give thanks to our God up above
For the bounties He showers down upon us with love.
Inside:
Happy Thanksgiving!
This one's from wife to husband:
Caption:
To the greatest husband!
Verse:
I love you when you're happy,
I love you when you're sad.
I love you when you're wreathed in smiles
And when you're hopping mad.
I love you when you're neat as neat.
I love you when you're grubby.
I love you all the time, you know,
'Cause you're the greatest hubby!
Happy Anniversary/Birthday/Valentine's Day!
This is a "please write" card. Picture a cartoon character on the front, holding a letter out in front of him/her, with eyes popping out.
Outside:
Woah!
A letter from you!
Inside:

Please write!
So, Jenna and others: are these any good?
