A modified greetings card ( 10 ) is formed from a pair of first and second leaves ( 11, 12 ) divided by a hinge line ( 13 ). When the card ( 10 ) is closed, the first and second leaves ( 11, 12 ) are arranged so as to overlie one another by folding along the hinge line ( 13 ), whilst when the card ( 10 ) is open, the first and second leaves ( 11, 12 ) are arranged to lie alongside one another. The modified card ( 10 ) includes confetti ejection apparatus, in the form of a confetti chamber ( 14 ) mounted on an inner surface of the second leaf ( 12 ). A confetti ejection member ( 26 ) is mounted for movement within the chamber ( 14 ). Deployment of the ejection member ( 26 ) is prevented when the card ( 10 ) is closed, by means of a retainer ( 23 ) mounted on an inner surface of the first leaf ( 11 ). However, when the card ( 10 ) is opened, the retainer ( 23 ) is released, allowing deployment of the ejection member ( 26 ), and thus causing ejection of a measure of confetti ( 25 ) held within the chamber ( 14 ).
