Thank You Cards: An Art To Be Encouraged

Why is it that the art of saying thank you seems to be in short supply? I was taught that if someone does something nice for you or gives you a present, you should say thank you. The best way was to write a note to the person with your sincere thoughts of thanks. Today it is easier, there are so many thank you cards available with a great variety of thank you sayings.

Thank you is such a basic part of my life and I find it sad to see that it is becoming less and less personal. Sending a text is okay but it can never replace the art or writing. When you take the time to choose a card, then write a note and address the envelope, you are showing that you were touched enough by that person to spend time selecting just the right card and saying.

Proper etiquette says that you should send a thank you within a month of receiving a gift or even having been invited to attend a dinner party. We should always remember that we are supposed to be practicing an elevated sense of propriety. Let me assure you if I am invited to your house, I will follow up my visit with a thank you card for the lovely evening spent with you.

It is the Season for Celebrations

It is the time of year for celebrations and congratulations. With summer knocking at our door, we celebrate graduations and showers. However, congratulations need not be limited to these. They can be sent for any life event. Winning a championship, opening a new store, getting a promotion.

I recently sent a congratulations card to my Aunt, congratulating her on a milestone 80th birthday. She loved it, and said she deserved it after putting up with our crazy family for all these years (all in a very loving way, of course)! My aunt also has a great sense of humor.

Whatever, the reason, congratulation cards are a great way to convey the message.
There are so many choices. Congratulatory cards are now adorned with balloons, fireworks or flowers. You can choose from masculine or feminine. There are many simple, but colorful cards that can be used for anyone. Man, woman or child. A favorite in our office is the one that is from a group. We can then name all the cast of characters portrayed on the front of the greeting card.

Whether you pick an individual design or an assortment box to keep on hand, you will always have a greeting card available when that special cause for celebration arrives.

Keep Correspondence Note Cards on Hand

Correspondence Note Cards are a flat panel cards measuring 4 1.4” by 6 3/8. They come in a boxed set that includes 15 cards and 15 matching convenient Seal Fast envelopes. They are eggshell white in color and have an embossed border that frames the cards.

You can personalized these cards with your name or a short message such as “Thank You” in blue or black ink or if you prefer gold or silver foil. To add to your customization, you can imprint select Brickham Script, Garamond Premier Pro, Nueva Std Bold or Tekton Pro Bold.

They are perfect to keep around for all business or personal uses. At work, I always have two sets in my desk drawer. One that reads, “Thank You” and another that has my full name. If I want to send a quick thank you to one of my employees that went above and beyond or a vender who sent over some product samples, I simply take out my thank you note cards and scribble a brief note. Other times I use these to recognize an employee’s milestone or congratulate a coworker on their success. Sometimes, I even use them to jot down my contact information if I do not have a business card handy.

Keep Correspondence Note Cards on hand for every occasion.
