Pals Blog Hop: Random Acts of Kindness

Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop!

This month, our blog hop theme made projects to celebrate Random Acts of Kindness Week, which is February 14-20! We hope you will be inspired by all the beautiful creations the Pals made for you! As you hop from blog to blog, we would love for you to leave a comment. You will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

Just out of curiosity, I googled “random acts of kindness ideas”, and one site listed 101! Here were a few of my favorites: invite a friend out for coffee; compliment someone you see today; bake a delicious treat to share; send an encouraging text message; let someone skip you in the checkout line; mail out a thank you letter; leave a large tip for a struggling waiter; pay a toll (or coffee) for the person behind you; pick up a friend for church.

All wonderful ideas, but they didn’t mention “give out a handmade note card to someone who serves you today,” and that’s what I’ve done for our Blog Hop. These 3″x 3″ note cards are so easy to make and they are the perfect size to keep in your purse or backpack, ready to give someone a little thank you/I appreciate you message! You could even include that nice tip for the waiter in one 🙂

Each card is different, as you can see. The only commonalities between them are 1) they all have Regency Park DSP, 2) they are all 3″x 3″ cards & envelopes, and 3) they all express gratitude.
