Greeting Card Rubric

 A typical greeting card has a specific purpose: wishing someone a happy birthday or anniversary or expressing a feeling about another occasion. There is a sender and a receiver. Also, the card itself has a cover with an illustration or picture, maybe even a cartoon and an inside with the main message or the punch line to a joke begun on the cover. See several real cards to get a sense of how you could design your card. Be sure you also include a little note to your sender to make the card personal.
