What Makes a Card Message Effective
Specificity Over Length
A message naming the specific occasion and a small personal detail — a shared memory, a wish, an inside reference — feels more genuine than a longer but generic greeting.
Matching Tone to Relationship
A message to a parent reads warmer and more sentimental, while a message to a colleague or client should stay brief and professional. See our gift hampers collection for the kind of gift that often pairs with a card.
