Abstract (en)

[origin: GB2462535A] A method of addressing the apparent short-term nature of greetings cards due to being discarded after use comprises providing an illustrated, folded card (30) featuring an expression of friendship or other sentiment and a picture 31. The card comprises a support member (35) adapted to engage with a picture to provide a first pictorial representation mounted on a card, and in a second mode when separated from the support member, provides a picture which can be adhesively secured to an object. The picture may be secured by pressure sensitive adhesive, or may be magnetic, or both types featuring a low tack adhesive (eg. aqueous acrylic) together with a magnetic adhesive (eg. flexible magnetic polymer film).
