Growth Greetings

Greeting Cards with a Message

Do you often think that buying a greeting card is a waste of time and money? The lack of meaningful messages and overuse of unrealistic artwork make you long for a better alternative. Vicki Lake has created greeting cards with you in mind.

Inspired by colorful poppies in the ruins of Philippi, she since has sought to see glimpses of God through her camera lens in various places, including Indiana, Florida, North Carolina, California, Israel, Turkey, Greece, and Mexico. She has written more than fifty devotionals to accompany the photos in bi-weekly newsletters and has expanded the project to introduce Growth Greetings - Greeting Cards with a Message.

Each beautiful 4x6 photo is inscribed with a Bible verse and placed on the cover of a 5 1/4" X 7 1/4" card that opens to a 300-word message and prayer on the inside cover. Opposite the message is a blank page for the sender's personal note. The card and envelope are encased in a protective, plastic sleeve.
