Are you known for being talented with your writing? Are you ever told that you should be a writer? Do you have a few available moments in your day? Would you like to earn some spare money? If so, you just may be perfect for being a greeting card writer. There are some greeting card companies in want of funny verse and some for serious verse. Personally, I recommend Oatmeal Studios and Blue Mountain Arts. Oatmeal Studios accepts funny only. Blue Mountain Arts is serious. I have included the main website for each and writers guidelines for each below. Oatmeal Studios https://www.oatmealstudios.com/ https://www.oatmealstudios.com/html/pages/write-guide.php Blue Mountain Arts https://www.bluemountain.com/ https://www.sps.com/greeting-card-guidelines-submissions With both greeting card companies, one may still submit via snail mail. When I had no laptop years ago, that is what I did. Are you unsure of yourself? Read your verse outloud to family, friends or even to yourself. Pretend you are writing to someone you know. Is the verse something that you would want to receive? With the coronavirus these days, you are probably stuck at home more than usual. Why not make these moments productive. For example, the other day, my neighbor brought me cupcakes. She said that she was just so bored that she decided to bake. I hope you get inspired if not already. This is something you just might be good at.

Our friend on myLot @Sharon6345 makes and sells her own cards, she would probably be interested in these links.

I think Sharon and Frugal Gal are the same people. I have seen her somewhere as Frugal Gal.

@CarolDM I think I saw a blog or something that she did as Frugal Gal. Or maybe I am wrong and mixed up about that.

I tried doing greeting cards years ago. I was not good at it but I might try again because I have learned a lot since then. Thanks for sharing this.
