Welcome Email Template — First Order Thank-You

A playful welcome email celebrating a customer's first order — a confetti-burst hero, an order summary line, and a warm invite to share the unboxing.

The prompt

Two ways to build this email in plain language. The fastest is Temway's in-editor assistant — open the chat drawer in the email editor and paste the recipe below. Or connect Claude or ChatGPT via Temway's MCP and paste it there; the agent builds the email step by step. Either way, adapt the copy and colors to your brand.

  • An email is a top-to-bottom stack of blocks — the recipe follows that order.
  • A [layout] step becomes a single image (great for heroes); everything else stays live text and links.
  • Theme the footer to match — the recipe's last step does exactly that.

Want this exact email? Click Use this template below to clone it into your workspace, then ask the in-editor assistant to rebrand it. Over MCP, tell your agent to clone the Temway share JZznkBD713-wjFbrWVv4C and rebrand. For the full model, point an MCP agent at get_conceptemail-structure, layouts-vs-emails, design-recipes.

The thank-you email that lands the moment a customer completes their first order. A playful confetti-burst hero sets the celebration tone, a single order-summary line confirms what’s coming, and a warm invite to share the unboxing closes it out. Built for delight, not transactional coldness.

Snapshot

  • Goal: celebrate the first order and set expectations for shipping and the unboxing moment.
  • Audience & tone: first-time buyers. Playful, delighted, generous — “you did it, here’s what happens next.” Warm enough to feel like a friend, not a receipt.
  • Palette: page #fdf2f8 · container #ffffff · text #500724 / #6b7280 (muted) · accent pink #ec4899
  • Font: "Trebuchet MS", "Lucida Grande", sans-serif
  • Artwork: custom SVG hero — a confetti burst of scattered circles, triangles, and streamers in pink #ec4899, yellow #facc15, and teal #14b8a6 on white, 600×200, centered above the heading

Build recipe

Each step is one block in the flat stack, top to bottom. [native] = a real email block. [layout] = a free-form layout embedded as a single image.

  1. [layout] Confetti hero — custom SVG (600×200): a scattered confetti burst of ~14 shapes — small circles (6px), triangles (10px), and streamer lines (2×18px) — in pink #ec4899, yellow #facc15, and teal #14b8a6, radiating from center-top. Build via add_custom_shape with a self-contained <svg>; use fill="currentColor" on the pink shapes and inline fills (#facc15, #14b8a6) on the two accent colors so they survive the pink recoloring.
  2. [native] Heading — text. “Your first order is on its way! 🎉” fontSize: 28, fontWeight: 700, color #500724, center.
  3. [native] Order line — text. “Order #1042 · 3 items · arrives Tuesday, July 21.” fontSize: 15, color #6b7280, center.
  4. [native] CTA button — button. Label “Track my order”, pink #ec4899 fill, white text, pill corners, center, padding 12×28.
  5. [native] Divider — hairline #fbcfe8, generous vertical padding. Separates the celebration from the unboxing invite — the flat model stacks and divides, it does not box.
  6. [native] Share heading — text. “Tag us when it lands” fontSize: 18, fontWeight: 700, color #500724, center.
  7. [native] Share copy — text. “We repost every unboxing. Find us @hopscotch.shop — and use code FIRST10 for 10% off your next order.” fontSize: 15, color #6b7280, center, line-height: 1.6.
  8. [native] Help line — text. “Need to change anything? Reply to this email — we’ll sort it within a few hours.” fontSize: 14, color #6b7280, center, italic.
  9. [native] Footer — text block with “Hopscotch · 88 Market St, Brooklyn, NY · [email protected] · Unsubscribe”, fontSize: 12, color #9ca3af, center, recolored to the palette.

Make it yours

  1. Swap “Hopscotch”, the handle, and FIRST10 for your shop and your real repeat-purchase code.
  2. Restate the order line fields (order number, item count, ETA) with your fulfillment values.
  3. Recolor the pink accent — keep the playful three-color confetti burst for the delight factor.
