AmericanGreetings Create & Print Service Offers the Personal Touch of a Homemade Card

This innovative option offers an easy, affordable and convenient way for consumers to create and print quality paper cards (and corresponding envelopes) for all of the parents in their lives, right from home. Consumers can purchase a one-year membership to the Create & Print service for only $19.99, which gives them an unlimited use of the more than 400 designs available for any occasion.

This great offering is marked by a variety of quality designs, and accented by the convenience and ease with which shoppers can personalize their own cards. Consumers only need a computer, Internet access and a printer – there are no additional software or downloads required. From there, they can choose from the many designs available, and easily personalize their greetings with a personal message through the convenient editing functions. To fit any busy schedule, users of the service can also save and pick-up their project at any time, from any computer by simply logging into their account.

In addition to all of the great functions available, shoppers can add art to any card or envelope from a gallery available, as well as upload multiple photos all at once. These small, personal touches are what make the cards unique, and extra special for any parent.

“This is the first time we have offered our printable cards within the new, easy-to-use platform, and we are very excited for consumers to take advantage of them,” said Michael Waxman-Lenz, senior vice president and general manager of AmericanGreetings.com. “Our members have told us that greeting cards are a perfect way to reflect the strong emotions of love and appreciation they have for mom. And with the printable offerings, creating the perfect card for mom is easier and more fun than ever before.”
