Diversity within the UK

When thinking back to the topic of diversity, a mind map was developed in which outlines some key sub-topics that may be interesting to focus upon. These sub-topics could potentially become key areas in which the card/stationery set focuses.

When visiting card shops it is very rare that 'taboo' topics are covered and thus my initial idea would be to tackle these ideas through a selection of cards. The range could include: A gay marriage card, Happy divorce, Like a farther on fathers day, and a happy adoption card. One key issue with this is that I am unsure how to transfer these themes into a notecard set etc, and thus this may be discussed within the critique.

Illness cards

When thinking about get well cards, it is often that there are not cards in which express what you really want to say, and thus a commical approach should be taken. I personally believe that this is highly important when discussing serious illnesses as they can often appear heavy and the individual experiencing the event often does not want to think about the event. Thus a light humour approach would be appropriate, again the issue with relating this to a notecard set is difficult and thus this will be discussed within the critique.
