truthteller cards! ! ! page 4The Gobsmack’d Greetings Truthteller line consists of 16 cards that, in the words of Aaron Neville, “tell it like it is”. An obese man breaks into your house, he may leave you gifts aka Christmas. A rabbit delivers chocolate replicants of itself for you to eat aka Easter. The Truthteller line is here to suss out these less than well-known facts and bring them to you in card form.

anecdote cards! ! ! ! page 11The Gobsmack’d Greetings Anecdote line concentrates on the most likely, true tales of days of yore. What better way to say I’m sorry than to reference a Tallulah Bankhead slip up that was most likely much worse than anything you could have done? What better way to tell someone you think they are pretty cool than by comparing him or her to Sinatra? The Anecdote Line allows you to say quite a bit, without actually saying very much. The 8 Anecdote cards will be joined by 8 card friends in our Autumn collection debuting in September 2013.

lexicon cards!! ! ! ! page 15The Gobsmack’d Greetings Lexicon line consists of 16 cards that allow you to use the less popular, but no less descriptive vocabulary of the great English language to let someone know how you feel. Think that new person at work is the bee’s knees? Have you made a social faux pas and wanna to say, “sorry” simply and succinctly? Do you sometimes refer to the Oxford English Dictionary as the “OED” in mixed company assuming they will all know what you mean? Then the Lexicon Gobsmack’d Greetings line most likely has something for you.

shop talk cards! ! ! ! page 22The Shop Talk line blends theatre and real life. Using the vocabulary of the theatre nerds you knew in high school and applying it to day to day situations. The Shop Talk dramatic irony card is there to thank the friend who gives you the knowing side glance when everything has gone haywire. The friend who "gets" you. And the friend who would be the first call you made when you needed bail money. "I need you to not freak out right now, but how soon you make it down to central booking?"

tis the season cards! ! page 26Here at Gobsmack'd Greetings we love the holidays. Why? The breaking of so many deadly sins, sins like sloth and gluttony the first day off - and that is just for starters.

But there are also a lot of dangers lurking during this period of unexpected mistletoe taped in a door frame, open bars and workplace parties. Here at Gobsmack'd Greetings we've drawn up holiday agreements that should exist between friends - like establishing a party safe word, making sure you don't get stuck under the mistletoe with an amorous coworker and mutual champagne drink monitoring. "You've had four, you are now officially cut off!"

half & half cards! ! ! page 29While we cannot claim to be all sunny sides of the street and unicorn horn optimists 24/7 here at Gobsmack’d Greetings, we are happy to acknowledge that most of life’s situations can been seen from both the negative side (I have to give up my remote control dominance and share) and the positive side (I never have to shave my legs again! I’m getting married!). The Gobsmack’d Greetings Half & Half line tries to highlight the best and the worst of every situation. Gobsmack’d Greetings knows with great lows, there often are great highs along for the ride and we have 16 cards to prove it.

phrenology cards!! ! ! page 36The Gobsmack’d Greetings Phrenology line doesn’t actually allow you access to the dark regions of the human psyche nor is it a portal into anyone’s personality. However, with this line, you can highlight what you are thinking and send it in card form. Now much maligned as a pseudoscience, the 8 cards of the Phrenology line allow you to go back to a time when it was easy to reveal exactly what was on your mind without a de facto scalp massage.

well played! ! ! ! ! page 40Sometimes you just need to tell someone "thank you". And sometimes someone's actions, words or deeds have left you slack jawed with appreciation. Sometimes someone has done something so excellent, so fantastic, so awe-inspiring that you feel just as pleased as that one time you were broke and then found a $20 balled up in your jacket pocket. So we condensed that special found money feeling into card form. There you are gobsmacked with no card to show it. All on 100% PCW recycled paper.
