More Than a Card: 20 Creative Ways to Use Our Keepsake Tokens
At Sunshine Lane, we’ve always believed that a greeting card should be more than just a message that sits on a mantelpiece for a week. That’s why we created our A7 Keepsake Collection.
Every card comes with a detachable wooden token - cut, painted, and sealed at our studio - designed to be taken off and kept forever. It’s a simple way to send a little"pocket hug" or a bit of sunshine to someone who needs it. Because we design for the good days, the tough days, and everything in between, these tokens are made to follow you wherever you go.
Whether you’ve just received one or you’re looking for the perfect "card and gift in one" for a friend, here are 20 ways these tokens can be used every day:
