Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On June 29, 2011, American Greetings Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release reporting its results for the quarter ended May 27, 2011. A copy of this press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

At the Company’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 24, 2011 (the “Annual Meeting”), the shareholders approved an amendment to the American Greetings Corporation 2007 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), reserving an additional 1,200,000 Class A common shares and 100,000 Class B common shares for issuance under the Plan, bringing the total number of shares reserved for issuance thereunder to 6,800,000 (5,600,000 Class A common shares and 1,200,000 Class B common shares). The material terms of the Plan are summarized in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement for the 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Proxy Statement”), which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 16, 2011 (No. 001-13859).

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

The results of voting on each of the matters submitted to a vote of security holders at the Annual Meeting are as follows:

In accordance with the voting results concerning this proposal, the Company has determined that it will hold an advisory vote on named executive officer compensation every three years until the next advisory vote on the frequency of the advisory vote on named executive officer compensation.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

The Company is organized and manages its business in three reportable segments: North American Social Expression Products, International Social Expression Products, and AG Interactive segments, and one non-reportable segment. During the first quarter ended May 27, 2011, certain items that were previously considered corporate expenses are now included in the calculation of segment earnings for the North American Social Expression Products segment. This change is the result of modifications to organizational structures, and is intended to better align the segment financial results with the responsibilities of segment management and the way management evaluates the Company’s operations. In addition, beginning with the first quarter ended May 27, 2011, segment results are now reported using actual foreign exchange rates for the periods presented. Previously, segment results were reported at constant exchange rates to eliminate the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. Attached as Exhibit 99.2 are the unaudited segment earnings (loss) for the quarterly periods in fiscal 2011, 2010 and 2009 calculated consistently with the current methodology that is used in fiscal 2012.

The information in Items 2.02 and 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K (including the exhibits attached hereto) is being furnished under Item 2.02 and 7.01, as applicable, and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liability of such section, or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
