Day 16: Kindness
The gift of giving to be kind and giving to thank someone for kindness are both great reasons to make!
Paula from TheCraftyLass on Instagram created a beautiful piece of home décor with vinyl and kindness as the focus.
Paula used the font ‘DTC Bikini Babe’ for the text and a simple circle shape for the confetti pieces.

Cards are always a great way to thank someone for their kindness. Maysiebug on Instagram created this beautiful card with her Cricut Joy™ and Insert Card Pack.
