Illustrate your sentiments in a "Greeting Card"

Greeting card, an illustrated message that expresses, either seriously or humorously, affection, good will, gratitude, sympathy, or other sentiments. Greeting card is usually a bright, beautiful picture, designed to improve mood and to express appropriate emotions. Not just the art of the card, but also meaning and contents have  great importance.
