Questions
- What should I write in a card?
- Their name, one true thing about them or about the occasion, and a sign-off. Two or three lines is enough; the specific line is the one they keep.
- How long should a card message be?
- One to three sentences. A card is read in a few seconds, and a short message that sounds like you beats a long one that sounds like a card shop.
- How do I sign a card?
- The way you would say goodbye to them in person. Love for family and close friends, warmly or best wishes for everyone else, and just your first name for work.
- Can you write the card for me?
- Yes. Choose a line here, tap Write it in a box, pick a box, and I copy your message out by hand on the card inside before it ships anywhere in Canada.
