Abstract

A printable and unprintable multi-purpose form is described that features detachable components including a correspondence piece, such as a greeting card, and a scrip, such as a gift card. The correspondence piece can be a greeting card or a post card. The scrip can be any non-monetary certificate exchangeable for currency, goods, or services including, for example, a gift card or a gift certificate. The detachable components can also include an envelope piece having multiple leafs and adhesive areas for folding and assembling into an envelope. The assembled envelope can be used to mail the correspondence piece and scrip from a giftor to a giftee. The form can be used in conjunction with a website and software to customize the detachable components for imprinting using a printer and to create a virtual e-card that includes customizations corresponding to the user's customizations of the multipurpose form.
