What happened to the big silver plastic key card for 18th birthdays?

Does anyone else remember them? It was a cardboard box with a clear plastic front and a big silver plastic key with an 18 or 21 in the middle, usually on some silky fabric. Sometimes there was something like an artificial flower stuck on them as well.

Where have they gone?

I also had an 18th birthday glass champagne flute card from my parents next door neighbours! Same style display box

People used to write on the back of the boxes and give you these things instead of a birthday card

Does anyone remember them?
Have they died out entirely?

You obviously haven’t been to a Card Factory recently ! Full of things like that - at least my local one is !
