          Application 08/699,135                                                      



          PATE, Administrative Patent Judge.                                          





                                 DECISION ON APPEAL                                   
                    This is an appeal from the final rejection of claims              
          1 through 13.  These are all of the claims in the application.              


                    The claimed invention is directed to a greeting card              
          which includes a stained glass ornament.  The card portion of               
          the combination includes an aperture through which the stem of              
          a suction cup projects.  The ornament is affixed to the stem                
          of  the suction cup and is thereby held on the card.  When the              
          user receives the card, the user removes the ornament from the              
          suction cup, removes the suction cup from the card, and then                
          affixes the suction cup to a structure where the ornament is                
          to be displayed.  The ornament is then reattached to the                    
          suction cup.  The claimed subject matter can be further                     
          understood with reference to  claims 1 through 13 appended to               
          appellant's brief.                                                          


                                          2
