    If you have a store-bought card, make sure to fill it out with a thoughtful message or personal doodle, and don’t forget to decorate the envelope! Adding stickers, washi tape, or hand lettering the name of the person onto the envelope is a way to make the card look great!

    How can I try different fonts?
    Community Answer
    The best way to try writing in different fonts is to just do it. Go on to Pinterest or another similar platform and find some fonts you would like to try. Start with the alphabet in both capitals and lower case and then move on to sentences. "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" is a good sentence because it will allow you to practice every letter. If you need different writing utensils, then try it without them until YOU think you are ready to progress.

    How do I make a beautiful card for a teacher?
    Community Answer
    It depends on what the teacher is teaching you. On the front page, add symbols or pictures to represent things you've learned (for example, for a math teacher you could add math equations). Inside, write how much you admire the teacher. You can add a few drawings of a book and pencil or whatever you want, and decorate the card with ribbon or other things.

    You can't make anything out of thin air. You need to at least have the basic materials of paper and writing utensils. If you don't have those and can't buy them, you can't make a card.
