This card is for you <3 : https://dear-you.cards/card/8e0b7819-a7e5-48e2-af4e-e263dc2690bc

Hi, I’m Ahlam AFRASS
i built this little virtual postcard tool because i love creating small things that make people pause, smile, and share something meaningful.

i’m a UX/UI designer at heart, but i also enjoy building tiny interactive tools that bring a bit more intention and poetry into the digital world.

this project is my way of rethinking how we connect online — less noise, more thoughtful gestures.

How this virtual card editor started ?
What started as a simple idea became a small experiment about slowing down.

This project was born after I sent an important letter to a friend… that never arrived. It was a message I didn’t want to send as a DM or an email. It deserved something more intentional — a postcard.

So I started wondering:
what if we could recreate that feeling online, without losing the poetry of paper?

This is how the virtual postcard creator came to life.

A small space where you can upload an image or draw on the back of a postcard, flip it like a real one, write a short or long message, and send it through a unique link to someone who matters to you.

Not just another message in a crowded inbox.
A small gesture.
A slower, more thoughtful way to say something.

This project is also part of the growing “touch grass” movement — a reminder to step away from constant scrolling, create with intention, and leave room for our thoughts.

Not because digital is bad,
but because creativity needs calm,
and we don’t have to be online all the time.

Less noise.
More meaning.

Touch grass. Not your phone.

I really enjoyed building this small project with Vercel and v0 — it made the whole process even more fun and seamless <3
If you ate from the Vercel or V0 team, i love you <3

If you have any feedback, I’d be really happy to hear it and use it to keep improving the project!

If you have ideas to share as well, I’m always open to exchanging and discussing.

(I’m still figuring out how the Vercel community works for now :blush:) Have a great day !

Hey! I’m the one who created the logo — on Figma :sparkles: I first sketched a few ideas on paper, then tried to recreate them digitally.

I took some time to figure out what I wanted to express with the name Dear You, but I’m still not sure if the logo really represents it, or if I should explore other directions.

What do you think ?

I’m really happy you like the project! :sparkling_heart:

Thank you for the card — I’d love to hear your feedback if you have any!!!

I’m also currently looking into the security of my site, so if you have any knowledge on that, I’d really appreciate it (I’m a bit concerned about potential vulnerabilities and trying to learn best practices).

(Your website is amazing!!!) :sparkles::sparkles::sparkles:

Wow, that’s cool that you made it yourself! I think it looks great. The logo really stood out to me.

As far as security… I could take a look later when I have time, I’ll let you know if I see any obvious issues.

Thanks! :smiley:
