Do people generally send anniversary cards?

We do, but only if its a "big" aniversary, such as the 5 year, 10 year, 20th year.. 50th year. Its an occasion, though, but still i dont send presents.

Whenever I have something I want to say, especially emotional things, like 'i love you' or 'you mean a lot to me', I always get a blank card and write a little message. I don't know what it is about the action of sending a card that means so much to people. I think sometimes saying things just isn't enough, but taking the effort to go out and buy a card and write them something thoughtful lets people know how you really feel about them.

25th anniversary is usually considered the silver anniversary. A good idea that I saw at a recent 25th party was a silver anniversary frame (available at stores like Hallmark). It had spaces for two pictures, so in the first spot the gift-giver put a copy of the couple's wedding picture. When the couple arrived, the gift-giver took their picture, printed it on the spot, and put that into the second space in the frame. The anniversary couple was thrilled to have a gift that commemorated their wedding and their 25th anniversary in one shot.

Ironic that you should ask this question!  The organization for which I work just retained the services of a "Personal Assistant" agency for our senior staff members.  I have mixed feelings about it. Sure it will be nice to send someone out to pick up my dry cleaning and stuff like that, but what about when it comes to picking up a gift or card for my partner?  Will the agency be able to select something GREAT for him?

This is very definitely a dying art. I used to write handwritten letters quite often, as my family are somewhat scattered about the country (and globe), as are many of my friends. The Internet came along and changed all that, doubtless permanently.\n\nFor what it's worth, when I send an email or e-card (in place of a personal letter or paper card) I still put in the same time and effort and my writing style is unchanged. But no, it's just not the same and I'd be the last person to argue otherwise.\n\nHandwritten letters and cards do have special meaning for me, and that's why on those rare occasions when I do write and post them, it is for someone I love a great deal. I'd not do it otherwise.\n\nThat said, I no longer save greeting cards as I once did (I'm still sentimental but I'm not a pack-rat), though I do still save handwritten letters if they hold special meaning for me (love letters, for example).\n\nIn closing, I wonder if handwriting itself now suffers universally (I know mine does) because of our reliance on keyboards to write anything at all. I'm no Luddite but I always lament the loss of traditions and practices once considered essential to our species. I'm afraid personal, handwritten letters are going the way of the dodo. I only wish it were not so.

I still send them...and it's amazing the impact it has on people.  I'm normally the one in my family that is pretty consistant about it.  My birthday was back in September, and I was very busy with a new job so was delayed in sending out cards.  People were actually shocked in not receiving a thank you.  It's a nice gesture and lost art.

I would continue sending the cards (as long as there is nothing hateful nor taunting written in 'em...).  \n\nRegardless of whether they bring a warm feeling in her heart or make her cringe, I'm guessing either reaction would bring a smile on your face - so, why not?  ;)

I don't think I've ever actually sent anyone a written letter in my life, thanks to the Internet and long distance telephones.  I do still send Christmas/holiday cards by hand though :)

I think it is a great idea. Cards that you buy now are so de-personalized and generic that you end up having to write half a page in the card itself to personalize it. \nMy suggestions: 1.Cards for those who have been cheated on(men and women)2.Cards for friends(generally women)-sorry I haven't called lately,etc. I have a thousand ideas for great cards, I'm sure you can think up plenty.

The greeting card to the ex - no - chances are if you can't say it, write it or IM it I'm not going to buy a card to say it for me.\n\nThe woman to woman - through tough times etc concept is good.

A person who attends the wedding gave you the gift of their presence to witness the most special day of your life.  You should send them a wedding thank you card.  But, unlike the other cards of appreciation you send out don't include that special note to them.  With the other thank you cards you should address what they gave you.  That will end up getting back to the person who did not give you a gift.

Well,I love to scrapbook,so I make my own cards,with the leftover 'scraps'. I can personalize these cards so much more than anything I seem to be able to find in a store.  I use stamps,photos or stickers to make them more personal.  Works great too when you just went to the store for a gift and realize you forgot the card.  I'm a little organized though and have a card holder/calendar book,so all my cards are put in there at the beginning of the year for the whole year. As I  have time,I make new ones to replace the ones I used.

Very commercial and still a reminder needed for some .Asking parents regular for help and even saying thank you ,is great . But a day that you give to just that one is really nice .It should stop you from doing it more , but still a special day , as a birthday .Even though I no long have birthdays ( I refused to age pass 35 yrs.), my children will call or come over and now say Happy unbirthday ! So they are undoing the years ! As far as commercial use , they have gone over board .Valentines  was a card . Then came flowers , candy , gifts  and what a cut in your pay check !There are some  people that will argue just before the date and make up after the date past .REALLY ! One guy told me it was cheaper to date all week than to take his girl out on Valentines Day .Besides half off the next day and he would say I bought this yesterday ,but we weren't talking . LOL
