What is a card shower?

Along with my cousins, we are planning an 80th birthday party for our grandmother. After searching for ideas such as favors, invite wording, etc. I continually see Card Shower.. Am I that nieve that I have totally missed something? Does it mean to simply mail a card to a person, or mail a gift card? I have seen people in accidents, etc. having a card shower. Even for Baby Showers I read a post where the person was offended that a normal Baby Shower was now a card shower. I would just like to know what I am missing before I mess up this entire party.

Thank you!

Card showers are generally used for older people (or other “shut-ins”) when they have something to celebrate but it’s impractical to have a party for them.
It’s a nice way to share good wishes without putting a strain on the elderly (or ill) person.
One suggestion, if you live in a place where there could be danger to the person — get a post office box or have the cards sent to an alternative address so you are not advertising the home of an elderly person — especially if you put the notice in the newspaper.
On the Baby Shower — I don’t think card showers are particularly appropriate for those occasions.
