Printable Kindness Cards
These cards are four to a page, bookmark size. There are two fairies on either side of a big cloud, with spring colors accenting the vintage graphic. They have the quote, “How beautiful a day can be when kindness touches it ~ George Elliston.” There is a very small nearly invisible watermark on the bottom.
These are intended to be used with an intentional act or a random act of kindness. So if your kindness is pre-meditated these will work, too.
