You can use
* scribus
* inkscape
* glabels
* openoffice.impress
for greeting card creation
All of the above mentioned packages are available in Debian/Ubuntu repos.
Following 2 tutorials might help you to use openoffice.impress

You might also find following link useful for printing purpose

Also check this for Scribus

Alternatively you can install "Wine". Wine lets you install Windows
programs on GNU/Linux systems.
So, try installing American Greetings Create-A-Card using Wine.
Please take into consideration that, I have not used any of the above
softwares but Wine. Those are the google results.
Hope that helps.
I think you hit "Reply" button instead of "Reply All", so you sent me
a private mail rather than replying to the list.
Please do take care next time when replying. :)
