CLEVELAND — American Greetings, as an extension of its #stayconnected free digital card sending campaign, has teamed with country music star Tim McGraw to spotlight his new song “I Called Mama” within an eCard for Mother’s Day. The card, which was designed by American Greetings, is available now and free for a limited time here.“Mamas deserve to be recognized and celebrated,” says McGraw. “My mom has nurtured me and given me love, strength and encouragement. She is a light and I love her so much.”

Recognizing this Mother’s Day will look and feel differently from past years’ celebrations, all the moms we know in our lives can be celebrated with a greeting card, no matter how close or distant they are.

“We planned our Mother’s Day campaign earlier in the year to recognize all the moms out there who show up each day and do one of the world’s toughest jobs,” said Alex Ho, chief marketing officer. “But since March, many moms have now taken on even more roles, like at-home schoolteacher or helping on the front lines of this pandemic. Connecting with all of the moms in our lives couldn’t be more important than now.”

Along with the Tim McGraw digital card, American Greetings Mother’s Day cards will be available both in store and online—allowing consumers to shop for the holiday whichever way they feel comfortable.
