Greeting cards[/url] are an illustrated message that 

expresses, either seriously or humorously, affection, 

good will, gratitude, sympathy, or other sentiments. 

Greeting cards are usually sent by mail in observance of 

a special day or event and can be divided into two 

general classifications: seasonal and everyday. Seasonal 

cards, also called

cards/]Holiday Cards[/url], include those for Christmas, 

Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Father's Day, 

Easter, graduation, Halloween, and St. Patrick's 

Day. Everyday cards include those commemorating 

birthdays, anniversaries, or births; cards of 

condolence, congratulations, or friendship; as well as 

get-well cards, gift cards, bon voyage cards, and thank 

you cards.

Modern greeting cards are usually of stiff paper or 

cardboard, but some are made of cloth, leather, 

celluloid, vellum, metal, or even wood, clay, cork, or 

other materials. Size is determined by common usage, the 

availability of suitable envelopes, ease of mailing, and 

the system of grading according to price and quality. 

There are also some kind of cards with neoteric design

Washi Tape[/url] to decorate the card. Extreme 

exceptions include an inscribed grain of rice presented 

in 1929 as a Christmas greeting to the prince of Wales 

and a Christmas card sent to Pres. Calvin Coolidge in 

1924 that was 21 by 33 inches (53 by 84 cm). The 

imprinted messages on cards may vary in length from a 

brief word or two to 100 words or more in prose or 

verse.

The exchange of illustrated greetings among friends 

dates from ancient times. In Egypt the new year was 

celebrated by the exchange of symbolic presents, such as 

scent bottles and scarabs inscribed au ab nab ("all 

good luck"). The Romans exchanged strenae, 

originally branches of laurel or olive, frequently 

coated with gold leaf.
