Decorative card for use with product

Abstract

Spaced upper and lower sections are connected to medial sections by fold lines forming a pleat. The upper, lower and medial sections have decorative indicia forming an integrated decorative image. One or more of the indicia bearing sections have tongues that span the pleat and, optionally, mate in slits or openings to form these sections into an integrated, front indicia bearing portion of the card. The medial sections of the pleat between the upper and lower sections are folded back from the upper and lower sections into a substantially juxtaposed relation. The tongue or tongues comprise material from at least one of the medial sections which is broken free of the medial section to form an opening therein. Both medial sections have openings, which openings align when the sections are juxtaposed for receiving a product. When positioned on the product, the upper and lower sections bearing the decorative indicia extend along one face of the product, and, in cooperation with the tongue, can hide much of the product when viewed in a “front-on” orientation. The tongue or tongues may have indicia thereon which continue the integrated image of the other sections when the other indicia bearing sections are spaced from each other for a given product. Various embodiments are disclosed.
