I heartily recommend:
Program: Just Right Click Greeting Card
Company: Just Right Click
Ware: (Freeware)
http://www.pricelesswarehome.org/ftp/Programs/greeting_card_freeware.exe
[863 KB]
Windows 95/98/NT/Me/2000/XP
Small, easy to use, has fancy text options. :) :) :)

Another possibility (does more "stuff", has more options)
Program: Printmaster Express

W: LFW
Ware: (Freeware) LFW (v 2.1)

more info:
Program: Financial Freedom Cards & Labels
Company: M & R Technologies
Ware: (Freeware) LFW (v 2.3)
http://www.gratilog.net/xoops/modules/mydownloads/singlefile.php?cid=81&lid=156

AFAIK the program does NOT make greeting cards.
