I turn my friends into tiny hand-drawn characters, based entirely on their personalities. Then I put them on notes, birthday cards, even cakes. Here's the exact recipe, free. :)
Okay, this is one of my favourite things I've ever made. 🤍
I turn each friend into a little character, drawn entirely from their personality. The dancer got a twerk. The hopeless romantic, heart-eyes and a "muah muah muah."
Then I pop them on a note, a card, even a cake. Watching someone realise the tiny character is them? Best reaction ever.
It's free. Steal it, make your people. 👇

Swap the [brackets] for your friend's vibe: their hair, their energy, their catchphrase. Hit go, then tweak till it feels like them.
I pasted this prompt straight into Manus and it drew these for me. If you sign up through my link you'll get 500 bonus credits to start.
Read someone's personality, then turn it all the way up. That's the whole game.
The catchphrase they always say. The way they move. The thing they'd never admit they love.
Everyone draws everyone differently. Your version of a friend says as much about you as it does them.
The prompt does the heavy lifting. Tell it their vibe, then exaggerate.
This is where it gets really fun. A few things I've done (and you can too):
Print the character, write a handwritten note on the back. Instant heirloom.
Yes, we actually printed characters onto cakes. The reaction is unreal.
Build a little one-page site for a friend, with their character as the star.
Phone wallpapers, laptop stickers, group-chat reaction packs.
Make everyone, line them up together. A little illustrated family portrait.
When they have everything, give them something only you could make.
This is what I mean by using AI to make real life a little warmer. A drawing that quietly says: I see you, I get you, here's proof.
