Create a virtual greeting card for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day
Send virtual love to your dear ones
In the coming month, the majority of the world will celebrate Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. In these strange times, it may be a much safer idea to send virtual greetings to your parents rather than congratulating them in person.
If you need some tips for creating beautiful customized greeting cards to your mom and dad, tag along! We will use Iconfinder and Canva to create a couple of examples.
