Valentine’s Day Cards for Children’s Hospital

Three hand-cut paper Valentine’s Day cards arranged together, featuring playful shapes, bright colors, and tactile paper textures.

These Valentine’s Day cards were created as part of a campaign for a children’s hospital, with a focus on emotional clarity, inclusivity, and calm visual language.
Each illustration is hand-cut from paper and designed to feel warm, approachable, and supportive across a wide range of ages and backgrounds.

Progress

All artworks were created by hand using cut paper, emphasizing tactility, softness, and human presence — qualities that help balance digital-heavy hospital environments.

The Concepts


Concept 1 - Look What I Found

  • Simple character-based imagery

  • Easily readable without text

  • Gentle curiosity rather than emotional pressure


Concept 2 - Send Cute Love

  • Bold shapes and high contrast

  • Message reinforced visually with a non-text symbol

  • Designed to communicate kindness even without reading


Concept 3 - You Are My Happy

  • Universal gesture of care

  • Inclusive representation through abstracted forms

  • Calm, reassuring visual tone


Why This Works In A Hospital Setting

  • Does not rely on humor, irony, or references

  • Avoids visual noise or emotional overload

  • Supports moments of quiet connection

  • Feels appropriate for institutional use


This project demonstrates an ability to work within sensitive contexts, balancing creative expression with responsibility, clarity, and care.
