If jamming to Jill Scott's extensive catalog isn't enough for you, you will be happy to know that she's bringing her writing skills and finesse to a line of greeting cards with Hallmark's beloved Mahogany brand. And according to the singer, the cards are going to help you celebrate, encourage you and <a href="http://www.myhot995.com/entertainment/celebrity-news/look-for-the-jill-scott-collection-hallmark/y3P0vBTvo2qa6q3PprWNVM/" target="_blank">even help you move on from a divorce</a>.

<a href="http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/hallmark-mahogany-introduces-exclusive-new-jill-scott-collection-offering-poetic-sentiments-encouragement-and-lyricism-300396507.html" target="_blank">Hallmark's Mahogany announced the Jill Scott Collection</a>, which will feature a design, editorial direction and even sound (no, you won't literally hear Jilly from Philly when you open the cards -- not just yet at least) inspired by Scott. Even the exclusive colors and textures of the cards are motivated by the singer.
"The Mahogany brand is genuine, progressive and optimistic – values that are important to me and reflected in my music and poetry, and now, through my card collection," Scott said. "I was inspired by highlights within my own life – love, marriage, motherhood – in the writing behind these cards, and I am excited to be involved in a project that will give others another way to express their love to the people that matter most to them."
The messages inside the cards are quintessential Jill, including a "<a href="http://www.hallmark.com/cards/greeting-cards/jill-scott-i-desire-you-valentines-day-card-459SV3245.html" target="_blank">desire</a>" card that has just the right amount of steaminess for Valentine's Day:
<blockquote>Your touch is a zillion bolts of pleasure, pleasure that is insurmountable-- without comparison, without measure. Today, my every gesture reminded me of who's missing. My every breath, thought, blink, made me crave you.
I want to have you. I want to bathe in you. I pray you want me, too.
I desire you.</blockquote>
Well, damn.
And we don't know about you, but we're also excited to share "You're So Fly!" and "Our Love Is Golden" cards with loved ones.
The plan is for the Jill Scott Collection to expand to notebooks, mugs, pouches and trinket trays next year. But so far, the collection includes 20 cards that are being rolled out for Valentine's Day. Other holidays her cards will celebrate include Mother's Day, Father's Day and graduation. There are also cards commemorating friendship, love and support. They will cost the usual <del>exorbitant</del> amount for cards, which is a range of $3.99-$5.59. You can check the cards out on the <a href="http://www.hallmark.com/shop-mahogany/?prefn1=artistName&prefv1=Jill%20Scott" target="_blank">Mahogany website</a>, as a few have already been released. You can also see them for yourself in person at select Hallmark Gold Crown stores.
