Against a blue background, purple, bubbly text reads, "Alone Together." Below the text, there are three images of a couple. One person has straight hair and the other has curly hair. The people are pink line drawings filled in with white. In the first image, the couple hold hands and walk together with a tiny pink heart between them. In the next image, the curly-haired person is pregnant and the straight-haired person leans down to listen to their belly. There is a tiny pink heart between them. In the last image, the couple hold their baby in the air. There are two, tiny pink hearts above them.
