Why You Should Have an Anniversary Cards Assortment Box

Is it almost June already?  Wow, time flies when you’re having fun working!  As the pages fly off the calendar, you are more than likely going to pass a few important dates or milestones along the way. That’s why it’s so useful to have one of our Anniversary Card assortment boxes.

Whether your marking your first, or fiftieth year in business, or perhaps celebrating a long running relationship with a customer, an anniversary card is always a great way to let the important people involved with your company know you haven’t forgotten them or how much you appreciate your years together.

People often don’t realize the importance of anniversaries, or sometimes forget them altogether!  I can tell you from personal experience how far a small thoughtful gesture such as remembering the start of a partnership can go.  And unfortunately from my own experience, I can also attest to how forgetting an anniversary will certainly get you in trouble!

Each box contains 35 beautifully made cards with the best of our various anniversary card designs and one of our thoughtful greetings.  To make things even easier, the anniversary card assortment box includes our popular seal fast envelopes to save you some time.  So now you will have a card for every important date that comes along throughout the year, and you can rest assured you’ve done that one small thing that will make it more likely you will keep marking those anniversaries year after year.

Why You Should Send Thank You Cards

What ever happened to sending someone a Thank You card? Technology evolved and took over every aspect of the manner in which we do things. It has made us lazy and quite insensitive. We no longer write personal notes or sentiments to those we appreciate as a symbol of our gratitude. Instead we shoot them an email or a text that conveys a simple, emotionless message. Sometimes we are too busy to even complete a word that we resort to text slang, SMH (Shaking my Head)! Did we ever stop to think of how impersonal those texts and emails are?

Knowing that someone actually took the time to pick out a nice card, chose the words they wanted to use in describing how grateful they felt towards you can bring about quite a remarkable feeling of importance. Receiving a personal Thank You card always gives you a wonderful conversation piece because it is something you will want to display in your home upon receiving it. One quickly forgets the text or email that simply says thank you, but a card lasts longer than a quick enter on the delete button. Let’s take a moment to reconnect in the manner we used to, send a personal Thank You card.

If you are an advent card giver like myself, you should never be without a collection of cards.  This will save you time, money and the agony of looking at all your card options.  It’s not just me, but I like to give cards that are personalized.  I like them to be a good quality paper and print instead of those crappy 99 cents cards.  That is a pet peeve of mine.  Ask my Aunt Queenie, she will never do that again!

I like the all occasion card assortment box because they have a little bit of everything in them just like a box of chocolate; but in this case you know exactly what you are getting. This will ensure that you will never miss an opportunity to share a special occasion, a life milestone, a thinking of you, etc., kind of moment.

So remember to give a card to that neighbor that gave you those sweet, tasty tomatoes out of their garden with a “Thank You” card.  I guarantee you will get a pumpkin pie the next time!

Sometimes you just need to say “Thank You”.  A Thank You greeting card is something that could be needed throughout any of the 365 days of the year.  The best thing about the assortment box is that it offers you multiple styles of “Thank You” cards to fit any occasion that may come up.  There are corporate cards that are appropriate for a business setting, but the box offers elegant styles that are perfect for weddings, baby showers, and many other events as well. There are also 7 blank cards included in the assortment box in case you need to write out your own personal message.  This is great if you are someone who enjoys writing out your own messages.

Thank You Assortment

You never know when you may need to write a Thank You card, so why not be prepared?  An assortment box makes things extremely convenient for you, but you’re also saving money.  On top of the 35 cards in 9 different styles, you also get extra envelopes. There are multiple pre-selected greetings to choose from as well, which can save you time when attempting to choose an appropriate message to write.

Another option that you have is to give the assortment box as a gift.  The box already comes in beautiful attractive packaging which makes gift-giving a smooth and easy process.   No matter what, a Thank You assortment box is a smart purchase to have on hand.  When there is somebody to thank in the near future, you’ll be glad you have it!

Why You Should Have a Get Well card Assortment Box

You can plan ahead for birthdays and anniversaries but you never know when you’ll need a Get Well card for a sick friend, a co-worker or a relative.  I’ve found that keeping a Get Well Assortment Box on hand gives me peace of mind and saves me from having to run out to get a card unexpectedly.  It’s nice to have a choice of card designs and different greetings for all different situations – a bit under the weather, a serious sickness or recovering from a surgical procedure.

A good Assortment Box will have designs suitable for both men and women and even a few cards that are totally blank so you can write whatever’s appropriate at the time.  I’ve used several types of The Gallery Collection’s assortment boxes for the past few years and am more than happy with both the card quality and variety in each box.  Their Get Well Assortment Box can’t be beat for convenience and the cards are definitely a better value than individual store-bought cards.

The self-sealing envelopes are a great feature and the cards and envelopes stay clean, organized and handy in a colorful, sturdy box.  Don’t you hate when you end up with the perfect, beautiful card and … the wrong envelope?  You can avoid that by keeping a Get Well Assortment Box on hand.  It will make your life a little easier and always let others know you’re thinking of them and wishing them well.

Why You Should Have a Fine Art Note Card Assortment Box

If you are an admirer of the Arts or have friends and family that are, these styles of greeting cards from artists such as Claude Monet, Vincent Van Gogh and Charles Neal, portray their magnificent works.
The cards are ideal for individuals, like myself that are fond of nature’s landscapes and picturesque settings. I just wish I could actually experience the Argenteuil, Villen at Boardighera, or walking in that Garden Path of Monet’s.

Fine Art Note Card Assortment Box

My absolute favorites of the note cards are the flower portraits. I LOVE FLOWERS!! Any kind and all kinds of flowers. As an advent gardener, I do have an appreciation of the artwork. These cards are absolutely stunning. Actually, I do have a favorite flower, the Sunflower. The Sunflower greeting card that is featured in the Gallery Collection should also be considered as a Fine Art Note Card too.

I have a good friend who is an enthusiast (and that’s an understatement) of this style of painting. Her entire home is fashioned in this Classic influence. She adores this period in history. I am sure she would purchase these note cards without hesitation. She would love to receive any one of these cards and even have it framed. The quality of these cards is what makes them special and should only be shared with those special people on special occasions.

Welcome Cards are Perfect for New Employees

Just imagine: You have joined a new company and have been training all week on a brand new computer system with all new coworkers. You are sent to your cubical surrounded by strangers and the butterflies in your stomach are flying like mad. You sit down and adjust your chair so at least you are a little comfortable. Then a light shines down, you look at the keyboard and see an envelope propped up against the computer screen. Then, you open this card with the word “Welcome” staring back at you. A sigh of relief escapes you…..

Welcome cards are the perfect way to make new employees relax and feel like they have joined the team. It is important to make new personnel have a sense of belonging. It is also imperative that the employee is relaxed and feels safe. They need to have a comfort level so they can ask for assistance if necessary without worrying about how they will be perceived. When I began working for a new company last year and was given a welcome card, I felt that this company and I would be a perfect fit. Most offices and/or companies are like any family or close knit group of friends. It is usually difficult to feel like you fit in and are part of things quickly. Welcome cards aid in the development of relationships between new employees and their new coworkers and bosses.

Congratulations Cards for a Job Well Done

Remember when we were kids how excited we’d get if someone took the time to tell us we did a really great job on something? I can remember getting one of those handmade “Well Done” certificates that stayed on my fridge for what seemed like forever. In fact, I can remember my kids getting a far more technologically advanced version of the same thing. Well, why do we have to be a kid to get something like that? Who wouldn’t appreciate Congratulations cards that recognize your hard work?

Recently I was involved in a town wide event sponsored by our local Chamber to get people out tasting foods from several new restaurants. While I enjoyed all the running around and organizing – since I’ve been told I can be a control freak – it was tons of work. Especially since it was all done while still holding down a full time job and a family life.

When the day finally arrived, everything fell into place and I have to admit, it was a gigantic success. We made a ton of money and people got to try new foods and hopefully found some new favorite places to eat. When I got home at the end of the night, I found the most beautiful card on the kitchen table that said “Congratulations on a Job Well Done”. The card, and the accompanying flowers, was from my husband and kids. It brought tears to my eyes to know that they acknowledged and appreciated all the time I put into something I really wanted to be a part of.

The next day, I got several other cards and texts with the same message. What a great feeling it was to know that everyone had a great time and realized the effort it took on the part of many people to make that happen. I guess it doesn’t matter how old you are or how often you hear it, it makes you feel good to be recognized for a job you put your heart into.

Greeting Cards Highlight – Photo Mount Cards

I absolutely love what Gallery Collection is doing with photos; how do they come up with all of these ideas? Photo mount cards are actual photos mounted on card stock with the photo framed in foil. I am totally going this way for my holiday cards this year but I have to narrow down from these:

Holiday Hearth Card
Holiday Hearth Card – Design 86GCW

 

Holiday Hearth (86GCW) – This photo card is so cozy looking it is a definite contender for this year’s card. Love the black stock; very dramatic.

Miami Skyline (76CCW) – I run a business out of Miami so this would be great to send because the sky really does look like this. Wonder if it would make my Northern client jealous! I could use it as a Thank You card instead.

Glowing Holiday Pines (73MCS) – Ideal is the thought that comes to mind when I look at this card, talk about Silent Night, you can almost hear the hush of the snowflakes falling.

Autumn Vignette (73SCX) – Maybe a Thanksgiving photo card instead of a Holiday photo card? A Thanksgiving card will hang much longer than a Christmas card and will be the first to arrive!

Holiday Penguin Trio (76SCX) – I have never done cute before so maybe this year I can break the ice with these adorable penguins.

Well I narrowed down to four holiday and I definitely want the Miami scene for an All Occasion card, I just won’t put a greeting on the inside so I can use for any thing I like. I want to hurry and make my decision while I can still get great discounts!
