A greeting card is a piece of paper or cardboard typically folded in half and printed with a message or illustration, often used to convey a sentiment, emotion, or well-wishes on a specific occasion or event. Greeting cards are a popular way for people to celebrate and communicate with others during various milestones, holidays, and personal moments.

In addition to physical greeting cards, digital or e-cards have become increasingly popular in the digital age, allowing people to send electronic versions of greeting cards via email or social media platforms. Regardless of the format, the primary purpose of a greeting card is to convey sentiments of joy, love, sympathy, or congratulations to someone special in one’s life.
