Lift Me Up Cards celebrate new body bits

TO OUR READERS: You know you want it. But do you know where to get it? This column aims to help. Watch this space weekly for information on all things timely, trendy, useful or unusual.

What's obvious: Your friend's new breasts.

What's not obvious: What you're supposed to say.

So make it easy - hand her a Lift Me Up Card, a greeting card for anyone who has gone under the knife. The message for a boob job? "Congratulations on the twins!" Inside message: "They make a good addition to the family." Lipo? "I thought we could sit around and chew the fat!" Inside message: "But since you just had liposuction, that's probably not a good idea." Vanished varicose veins? "You're so Vein!" Inside message: "You probably think this card is about you."

Lift Me Up Cards are available for eight cosmetic procedures and are sold at www.liftmeupcards.com or by calling 1-786-236-0866 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. MST.

Cost: $2.95 each; $29.50 for 10; $44.25 for 15 (should you have a lot of friends who are into a little nip and tuck).
