May is filled with many things: including Justin Timberlake memes, Star Wars Day, and two bank holidays this year. But most importantly it\u2019s Mental Health Awareness month, a cause super close to our hearts here at thortful. We\u2019re privileged to be in a position to help people check in with their friends, so all throughout the month we\u2019ll be placing a special highlight on cards from our Are You Ok?<\/a> range.<\/p>\n

Want to be a part of that particular range, but aren\u2019t sure how to create designs with more emotional impact? You\u2019re in the right place. As well as, of course, following our best practices for designing, there are a number of things to take extra care with when discussing mental health. Here are 5 different ways to approach cards surrounding mental health, and our top tips for each.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

People are likely to send a card if they can’t be with them in person (remember lockdown?!). Designs that reflect this, and attempt to cover the distance with a card, perform really well commercially. This card by Poppy Lane<\/a> (left), for example, has had over 1,200 sales, and this card by Always Sparkle<\/a> (right) has sold over 3,000 times.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

A really important thing to ensure when designing a card for mental health is that it doesn\u2019t trivialise the topic or experience. It’s both upsetting and frustrating to have your mental illness not taken seriously \u2013 it’s not something that can be fixed by a walk or just ‘cheering up’! This card by Abbie Imagine<\/a> does a great job at writing an encouraging message, without patronising. Another great example is this card by Mellow Doodles<\/a> \u2013 who is a great creator to look at for mental health related content.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

On the other hand, not everyone wants to be soppy, and not all mental health check-ins have to be all that serious. We want everyone to check-in with their friends, so if gentle humour is more your bag, that can work well too. Some good demonstrations of this are this card by Rosie Made A Thing<\/a>\u00a0(left), and this one by Aimee Stevens Design<\/a> (right).\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Sometimes all you need to do is let them know you’re there for them, whenever they’re ready to talk. Encouraging people to talk about mental health also always works well as social media content, reaching people far and wide \u2013 this card by Made By Mayfly<\/a> (left) received huge engagement on our social channels a while back, and has sold over 1,000 times too.
