Chubby rounded sans with a warm wobble and open counters
Kiddie Wishes is a chubby rounded sans in which the strokes swell at the joints, the terminals round off and every letter leans a little, so a word reads as something drawn on a card with a fat marker.

Sturdy stroke walls and open counters weed cleanly on adhesive vinyl, HTV apparel film, and cut cardstock.
Visual anatomy & craft review
The K opens a soft junction, the i keeps a round dot, the d closes a full bowl, the W holds two open valleys, the s turns a shallow spine and the e takes a single-storey eye, all at a friendly weight with round ends and a slight forward lean. The wobble is the character: the counters stay open so a mixed-case word still reads at small sizes, which is why the sample sets two words in one warm colour instead of stacking styles. Because the strokes are open and thick, the face survives a die cut at 25 mm and a screen at 14 pt. The blush ground, the soft shadow behind the letters and the pink label under them are presentation; the dark display words are the face.

Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Kiddie Wishes’s stroke geometry.
The chubby open letters read at 15 pt on a small party bag, and the warm lean keeps a plain child's name from looking institutional.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 60 by 40 mm label: set the name at 15 pt in the upper half, set the age in a 10 pt version beneath, and keep 5 mm of white under the label so the round terminals are not clipped by the fold.
Pre-production check
A fold running through a round terminal looks like a misprint; check the assembled bag and keep the word clear of the crease line.
The open counters read from a doorway, and the soft shapes suit a nursery notice board far better than a formal sans at 60 mm.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print an A3 header: set the two words at 60 mm stacked, keep 25 mm of border, and leave a 15 mm strip at the foot for the pinned notices so nothing is covered.
Pre-production check
Pins through a fat round stroke tear the sheet; check the board and pin in the spaces between the letters.
The warm round letters carry a family event without looking childish, and the thick strokes hold on a cheap card at 32 pt.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print an A6 card: set the event name at 32 pt, set the date and time in a 10 pt rounded sans beneath, and keep 10 mm of margin so the leaning strokes do not touch the trim.
Pre-production check
A leaning alphabet printed close to the trim looks crooked; check the card and align the optical centre of the word rather than the bounding box.
