Gratitude Challenge

When she first heard about The Gratitude Challenge, television star Angela Kinsey couldn’t wait to participate. In fact, she was so inspired by the project that she teamed up with Tiny Prints to design two Gratitude Challenge thank you cards to benefit the charity KaBOOM!-an organization dedicated to building a great place to play within walking distance for every child in America.

When creating her Gratitude Challenge thank you cards, Kinsey was inspired by the batik patterns her family had in their home in Indonesia, where she lived until she was 12 years old. The Indonesian culture’s emphasis on the virtue of gratitude makes this gorgeous pattern perfect for Kinsey’s designs, which you can see in her thank you card designs below:

“Being a new mom has helped me slow down and realize that life is pretty simple,” said Kinsey. “Just going on a walk with Isabel, I feel thankful.  We say ‘hi’ to the flowers, watch an ant crawl across the sidewalk, and wave to everyone we pass by.  There is so much to be thankful for and my daughter teaches me that daily. So when I read about the Gratitude Challenge, it really fit into my life and I wanted to share it with others.  What are you thankful for today?”
