Greetings and Salutations,

Welcome to the realm of art and words.  Here an inclination can becomes a thing of meaning with a thoughtful writing card and the stroke of a pen.  

That said, the psychology of a picture allows one to "feel" while, at the same time "visualizing," thus making a more lasting impression. Images, such as those that don the cover of Laurel & Fishburne collectable writing cards, are thought-provoking, to say the least.  

“The timeless elegance and warmth of Laurel & Fishburne collectables are designed to spark inspiration while always making a good an impression.”

Likewise, a fine writing instrument, such as, let’s say, a Mont Blanc fountain pen, used by heads of states to sign world changing documents, is an inspiration to write with.  Its brand is iconic, with a deeply symbolic name and logo.

“Mont Blanc is the highest mountain in the Alps and Western Europe, and the highest mountain in Europe.”

When we think of the importance of a greeting, whether it be a note of thanks or a remembrance during a time of loss, we think of warm feelings that are evoked in the heart of a family member, friend, constituent, or colleague because we have conveyed our timely sentiments. The power of a letter or note should never be underestimated. Think of these remarkable greetings:

“Though still in bed, my thoughts go out to you, my Immortal Beloved.”  (Ludwig van Beethoven to his “Immortal Beloved”)

“Congratulations on becoming our President. You have just begun a fantastic chapter in your life.” (President George Bush to President Barack Obama)

“Upon opening the package I received recently, I, of course, had no idea what to expect.”  (Johnny Depp to fans who made him a quilt)
