I am wondering, by any chance ~ if the original “you matter” card you received was bright green with "you matter" in a simple hand writing.
I have been giving out “you matter” cards for over ten years. I created them after first designing one for my kids that was a mirror that same size with a tiny “you matter” at the bottom. (there’s a whole story to it) Since then I’ve given them to everyone from homeless people (several churches put them in bags with needed items) ~ to a billionaire. I recently sent several hundred to a teacher at a school where a student’s father had been shot by the police. I’ve been to peace rallies and given them to cops and to people that have felt marginalized. They’ve gone to high school students entering the National Honor Society and to people who were ready to be done with life. This past month I've given out 1,000 of them myself, so you're well on your way with your goal.
My green cards with the tiny hand-written message were created an awkward color that can’t be easily misplaced, with the message in my hand-writing to be personal and unassuming.
I’ve always thought of doing what you have done with them.

It sure does make me smile.
