Pocket art kit is your tiny invitation to create without pressure and connect through art. Perfectionism stops more projects than lack of talent ever could—so this pocket-size kit makes it easy to begin. Inside, you’ll find two square ATC-style cards (2.5 x 2.5 inches) on richly textured 350 gsm cardstock: one already made to remind you what creating with love feels like, and one blank for you to make and pass forward.

Why Pocket Art?

Each piece you make carries energy and care. When you gift it, that love travels. That’s the essence of a Heart Swap—a small exchange of creativity between your hands and someone else’s heart. The pocket art kit keeps things delightfully simple: start small, no pressure, and enjoy the feelings that come from making and giving.

What’s Inside

• 1 finished mini art card for inspiration (handcrafted, embellished; designs vary)

• 1 blank 2.5×2.5 card on premium 350 gsm paper for your own creation

• Assorted die-cut hearts/phrases to collage (“You Are Loved” and more)

• Simple prompt card with encouragement to pass your piece forward

Features You’ll Love

• Premium feel: Thick 350 gsm cardstock resists warping when you add glue or light watercolor.

• Handcrafted details: Each kit includes a finished mini with layered embellishments and hand-inked edges—no two are alike.

• Ready in minutes: Just add your favorite pens, markers, or scraps.

• Pass-it-forward design: Make one for you, then gift one to a friend, a barista, or leave it in a library book for a stranger to find.

How to Use Your Pocket Art Kit (Quick Ideas)

1. Color & Collage: Shade the hearts, ink the edges, and glue on the “You • Are • Loved” tiles.

2. Mini Message: Write a note on the back, sign, and date your art.

3. Seal with Kindness: Tuck into a journal pocket or slip into a gift.

4. Swap & Share: Keep the finished sample as a reminder; give your new piece away.
