A printable invitation to slow down

An Autumn Afternoon for You

A cosy card to tuck inside an autumn hamper, offering warmth, stillness and permission to leave the busy world outside.

A small invitation, not another task

This card brings the book, blanket, warm drink and little treats together into one gentle message: nothing needs to be achieved today. The afternoon can simply be enjoyed.

How to use the card

Print the design on slightly heavier paper or light card, trim around the edge and place it where it will be seen when the hamper is opened.

  • Lean it against the book or hot chocolate.
  • Slip it beneath the ribbon or inside the puzzle book.
  • Add the giver’s name by hand after printing.
  • Pair it with any autumn gift that suits the recipient.
The hamper does not need to include every suggested item. A favourite drink, packet of biscuits and handwritten note can still create a lovely autumn afternoon.

The printable card

Use the button beneath the design to print only the card.

A little season of comfort

An Autumn Afternoon for You

Make something warm, put on your cosiest socks and let the afternoon move slowly.

Read, rest, puzzle or simply watch the rain beyond the window.

Nothing needs to be achieved today. The world can wait a little while.

With warm wishes from
