Hallmark Announces Winners in "Hungry for Laughs" Greeting Card Contest
Winning cards available online at Hallmark.com
KANSAS CITY, Mo., July 13, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Hallmark today announces the winners in its recent card-creation contest, "Hungry for Laughs." Hallmark invited consumers to cook up the funniest birthday, love and friendship cards featuring food.
Contestants submitted their creations in May. The 53 winning designs will be sold on Hallmark.com beginning today, and several of these cards will be selected to be featured for sale in Kroger Stores starting in October. Online winners each receive $250 and could win an additional $250 if their cards are chosen for in-store sales.
Hallmark judges looked for cards with a funny photo or design on the cover, and writing that worked well together and could be sent to many different people.
This is Hallmark's 24th consumer-created card contest. The winners are from 19 U.S. states and two providences in Canada. In this contest, three entrants created three winning cards each and two entrants created two winning cards each. For a list of the winners, visit the Hallmark Newsroom.
