Monthly Prompt: February

The prompt for this month is:
Card
This could be a Valentine’s Day card, of course. It could be a reference to playing cards, visiting cards, postcards, or simply cardboard itself. It could even be a reference to a person: ‘Oh, he’s a card!’ The Online Etymological Dictionary gives this information: Application to clever or original persons (1836, originally with an adjective, as in 'smart card') is from the playing-card sense…
As always, you needn’t use the prompt if you don’t wish to. Once you’re a member, you can post what and when you want—as long as you keep to the 500 words or less wordcount and the ACD Holmes ‘verse. AUs, crossovers and fusions are all permitted, as long as the characters remain essentially recognisable as the original ACD versions.
