Lightbulb Concept from Target

At checkout yesterday, saw a shiny silver package from American Greetings.

It was obviously directed at people who don't have patience to browse card racks.

It was labled "emergency card kit" and had very crisp instructions

1. Open
2. Select
3. Sign
4. Enjoy benefits of social grace.

It contained 2 Bday, 1 get well, 1 sympathy, 2 blank cards.

This sounds like something you creative ladies could run with. Shiny paper, a crimper, and bossy directions!

I like this simple concept! I've been wanting to make some 'blank' cards for friends and family and I like the simplicity of this packaging. :cool:

I was just at Target yesterday, but missed those, but what a GREAT idea. I think I must use it! What a great idea for a SS gift!
