Text on Card

Thimbles, buttons, or coins won't do, So win the ring for I love you; Slip it on and think of me, As your true love will think of thee

Description

A whimsical witch standing next to a bundle of corn stalks anchors this charming Halloween greeting card. She wears a pointed witch's hat and a tattered green-toned cloak, while a luminous full moon with a face glows overhead against a blue sky. Pumpkins and gourds rest on the ground below, creating a harvest-themed composition. The card's verse is a romantic sentiment about winning a ring as a token of true love.
