SHADED DESIGN cards
Very Cool, Uplifting & Inspiring Cards for woman.
Look closer. Her cards reflect a well worn path, a continuous journey. There are many strong, brave women who have come before her, and yet, there are many courageous women still to follow. Shaded Design Cards are for the girls, the women, the warriors. We seek encouragement, we want to hear that it’s okay to let loose and let go every now and then. We need to know that we are not going through this alone. These cards are written for you.

“It is something to be able to paint a particular picture…and in doing so, make objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious to paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look…to affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts.” THOREAU, Walden
