Thinking of You Week is an initiative by the Greeting Card Association to promote the benefits of sending greetings cards.  In the UK the average person sends 33 cards a year and the UK greetings card market is worth £1.75 billion.  So is this just a marketing ploy to get me to send more cards I hear you ask?!!  Maybe.....but have a think.
  • Sending someone a card helps you to stay connected with them, especially if you haven't seen them for a while.  A physical card has been shown to have a stronger emotional response than a text, a message or an email.
  • Receiving a card creates a feeling of well-being and makes you feel that someone cares about you and is thinking about you. This also helps you to feel less isolated.

I know my Flamingo Paperie cards make people happy, its part of the reason I love what I do!  I see it every time I do a stall or a pop-up shop.  People browse my card stand and the cards make them smile.  They smile because they have seen a funny card, or because they have a seen a card which is perfect for a certain person or they have seen a card which they can relate to.  Even if they don't buy I am happy because the cards have given them a smile.

​I think that Thinking of You Week is a great way to promote the mental health benefits of sending and receiving greetings cards.  ​If it makes you feel nice to send a card and it makes the person feel loved to receive the card then send away!! #sendacarddeliverasmile
