People keep saying things like; "Wow, if Hallmark or Disney saw this art they'd pay you a fortune!" I have done so many paintings and I'm not sure how to get large company's like these to even see them. I want to make my own greeting cards, but how do these large cos. view and buy art from people?

Disney as well as Halmark have people employed to view new talent. Just send it to them.
Pick the 5 best pieces of your work and make a nice presentation preferably on A4 size with a short description. Be sure all pictures have your name and adress on the back even if you glue it to a piece of paper afterward.

There are at least two approaches:
Apply for job as an employee at Pixar, Hallmark, Disney,etc. include examples of completed works in your portfolio.
Start your own greeting card / tee-shirt / figurine company, then sell it to larger company like American Greetings, Hallmark, or Disney.
Best wishes for success.
