Abstract

A gift card assembly includes a substrate, a gift card, and a card carrying member interposed between the substrate and the gift card. The card carrying member is releasably attached to the substrate and releasably attached to the gift card. The card carrying member resiliently or movably carries the gift card relative to the substrate such that the gift card is allowed to be spaced from the substrate when the gift card assembly is in a displayed configuration (which thereby provides a three-dimensional effect to the gift card assembly) and is allowed to achieve a position adjacent to the substrate when the gift card assembly is in a stowed configuration.

Claims (16)

1. A gift card assembly, comprising:

a substrate having an opening for accepting a peg of a merchandising display;

a gift card; and

a card carrying member interposed between the substrate and the gift card; wherein the card carrying member is loosely adhered to the substrate and is loosely adhered to the gift card and wherein the card carrying member is arranged and configured such that the gift card is spaced from the substrate and substantially parallel to the substrate when the gift card assembly is in a displayed configuration as a result of the substrate being hung via use of the opening from the peg of the merchandising display.

2. The gift card assembly as recited in claim 1 , wherein the card carrying member comprises a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion, the first portion being loosely adhered to the substrate, the second portion being loosely adhered to the gift card, and the third portion being disposed intermediate the first portion and the second portion and causing the gift card to be spaced from the substrate in the displayed configuration,

wherein the card carrying member comprises two folds that define the first portion, the second portion, and the third portion,

wherein, in the displayed configuration, the third portion of the card carrying member is generally disposed at ninety degrees relative to the first portion of the card carrying member and the third portion of the card carrying member is generally disposed at ninety degree relative to the second portion of the card carrying member to thereby position the gift card substantially parallel to the substrate, and

further comprising a covered, double sided tape attached to the first portion of the card carrying member intermediate the first portion of the card carrying member and the substrate when the card carrying member is loosely adhered to the substrate wherein a covering of the double sided tape is removeable upon removal of the card carrying member from the substrate to thereby allow the gift card and card carrying member to be attached to a gift.

3. The gift card assembly as recited in claim 1 , further comprising a covered, double sided tape attached to the card carrying member intermediate the card carrying member and the substrate when the card carrying member is loosely adhered to the substrate wherein a covering of the double sided tape is removable upon removal of the card carrying member from the substrate to thereby allow the gift card and card carrying member to be attached to a gift.

4. A gift card assembly, comprising:

a substrate having an opening for accepting a peg of a merchandising display;

a gift card; and

a card carrying member interposed between the substrate and the gift card; wherein the card carrying member is loosely adhered to the substrate and loosely adhered to the gift card and wherein the card carrying member moveably carries the gift card relative to the substrate such the gift card is spaced from the substrate and substantially parallel to the substrate when the gift card assembly is in a displayed configuration as a result of the substrate being hung via use of the opening from the peg of the merchandising display and the gift card is positioned adjacent to the substrate when the gift card assembly is in a stowed configuration.

5. The gift card assembly as recited in claim 4 , wherein the card carrying member comprises a pair of fold which define a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion, wherein the first portion is loosely adhered to the substrate, the second portion is loosely adhered to the gift card, and the third portion is disposed intermediate the first portion and the second portion,

wherein, in the displayed configuration, the third portion of the card carrying member is generally disposed at ninety degrees relative to the first portion of the card carrying member and the third portion of the card carrying member is generally disposed at ninety degree relative to the second portion of the card carrying member to thereby position the gift card substantially parallel to the substrate, and

further comprising a covered, double sided tape attached to the first portion of the card carrying member intermediate the first portion of the card carrying member and the substrate when the card carrying member is loosely adhered to the substrate wherein a covering of the double sided tape is removable upon removal of the card carrying member from the substrate to thereby allow the gift card and card carrying member to be attached to a gift.
