Abstract: A greeting card assembly that contains a first flap and a second flap that are joined at a central fold seam. The first flap and the second flap can move between an open configuration and a closed configuration. A flat center support is provided that extends vertically over the central fold seam. The flat center support has a flat face surface and a flat back surface. A plush body is set in the center of the greeting card assembly. The plush body is attached to both the first flap and the second flap. The flat center support extends into an interior of said plush body through an open bottom. When the first flap and the second flap are moved into their closed configuration, the plush body is pressed against both the flat face surface and the flat back surface of the flat center support.

Abstract: An assembly for creating water balloons that directs water from a water source into a manifold. Filler straws extend from the manifold. Latex balloons are readied for filling by placing a neck plug into the necks of the balloons. Each neck plug has an elastomeric body that is sized to plug the neck of the balloon. A blind bore is formed into each of the neck plugs. The fill straws are advanced into the blind bores of the neck plugs. The filler straws are advanced deeper into the neck plugs, therein piercing the material of the neck plugs and eventually passing through the neck plugs. Due to the elastomeric material of the neck plugs, a watertight seal is formed around the filler straws. Water is advanced through the filler straws to fill the balloons.

Abstract: An electronic assembly that produces audile signals, such as prerecorded phrases, when activated. The electronics assembly is part of a secondary device, such as a pen, utensil, jewelry, or similar small object. The electronics assembly includes a housing having a first end and an opposite second end. A battery casing is disposed within the housing. The battery casing is sized to retain a plurality of concentrically stacked button cell batteries. An electronics module is provided within the housing for producing audible signals. A spring extends from the electronics module into the battery casing and biases the button cell batteries into a stacked configuration. The electronics module is powered, in part, by electricity flow through said spring from the button cell batteries.
