Wouldn’t the world be so much better if we lived our lives guided by LOVE? Specifically, if we are about to say or do something, we should note whether the words or actions are coming from a place of love. If they are, then say it; if not, reconsider. 

The world needs so much more of this thinking right now. At Design With Heart, we believe LOVE is the greatest gift we have been given – and the greatest gift we can share. We hope our products will inspire you to SHARE THE LOVE!

In today’s world, where visibility, affirmation, and inclusion are paramount, we take pride in presenting our LGBTQ greeting cards. Because, at the end of the day, love knows no bounds – love is simply love.

Design With Heart greeting cards fit every occasion, from celebrating joyous moments to offering support during tough times. A simple “thank you” can express gratitude for a kind gesture, while inside jokes or random acts of kindness can brighten someone’s day. Remember, personalizing your message with “you” makes it more heartfelt.

When love is in the air, pouring your feelings onto paper creates cherished memories. And when new life enters the world, a timely card or gift can connect new parents to the joyous outside world, whether it’s a birth or an adoption.

In times of sorrow, a sincere note of sympathy can offer much-needed comfort. Always show up with empathy, as a few thoughtful words can make a significant impact.

I’ve always loved this quote from Ernest Hemingway.

And it has resonated with me a lot lately. My friend lost her father to Parkinson’s disease. She was the apple of his eye. Another friend just lost her beloved husband to Acute Myeloid Leukemia after a horrific battle to get him into remission. On Saturday, I danced at the wedding of a two-time Leukemia survivor.

As a widower, I know I’m on a journey of healing – always learning new ways to carry love forward and discovering the depths of the resilience and grace that my faith affords me.

The truth is, in life, we all suffer. All of us. Some people never recover from their struggles to find peace. Some never have the opportunity to recover – some choose not to. But some do. Some can get up off the ground when all seems lost. Some find they can persevere – struggles CAN be overcome – and discover they can come back stronger than before.

Maybe I need to send this card to myself – a gentle reminder to keep pushing forward. Who will you send it to?

Some of our favorite Design With Heart cards are the ones that are about birthdays, anniversaries, or holidays. They are just simple sentiments, sharing encouragement, inspiration, and kind messages.
