Be kind
Print and colour the Be Kind digi stamp and trim to 8cm x 14cm. Matt onto green card, 9cm x 14cm, and adhere centrally onto a white 11cm x 14cm landscape blank.

You matter
Print out the large heart digi stamp, colour in, then cut out, leaving a narrow border. Snip a 10cm square piece of turquoise card and mount onto an 11cm square white blank. Trim the ‘You matter’ sentiment digi stamp and back with foam tape. Fix the heart to the blank and the sentiment strip across the base of the heart. Add a pearl and sequins around the sentiment.

Sunshine & rainbows
Print and colour the sun/rainbow and cut out to leave a narrow border. Die cut a cloud border across a piece of turquoise card and mat onto the bottom of an 11cm x 14cm white top fold blank. Attach the sun/rainbow to the top of the blank with foam pads. Trim the ‘Sending Sunshine & Rainbows’ sentiment and fix to the bottom of the cloud border. Add some heart droplets under the left of the rainbow.

How’ve ya bean?
Arrange the latte cup digi stamp with the ‘How’ve ya bean’ sentiment above it and the ‘Let’s Catch Up!’ below. Print out and colour in. Create an 8cm x 16cm top-folding blank and cover with pink card. Trim the image to 6.5cm x 13cm and mount centrally towards the top of the blank. Wrap black baker’s twine several times around the base and tie in a knot. Highlight the steam, the coffee and the heart with a sparkle pen. 

Show kindness
Print the cuddling hearts digi stamp, add rosy cheeks with a pink marker pen and cut out to leave a narrow border. Blend Picked Raspberry, Ripe Persimmon, Mustard Seed, Twisted Citron and the Peacock Feathers distress inks onto white card to create a rainbow effect and apply a coat of the sparkle shimmer spray over the top. Die cut into a 9cm circle. Create a 13cm white square blank. Matt turquoise card, 11cm x 13cm, down the centre. Mount the rainbow circle onto a slightly larger circle of black card and fix to the blank. Attach the hearts to the rainbow circle with 3D foam pads. Trim the ‘Show kindness’ sentiment and add to the base of the blank with 3D foam tape. Add a clear heart embellishment to each of the heart motifs to finish.
