Each suit in the Bag of Bones playing card deck tells a visual story progressing from Ace to Ten. A heartwarming lamia, a persistent gardener, a spider’s catch, and a clumsy walker make for quick stories. The court cards stand alone, but have tales for themselves. For those wishing something more pleasant, Artiphany also has decks featuring dogs, kittens, and mermaids.

Today’s cards: 8 of Clubs, Queen of Spades, & 4 of Clubs.

When you hear of other’s achievements, you have a choice to make. Be envious, or be inspired. Why raise up an army of emotion to attack something that is already beyond your means to touch? If you must be envious, be envious creatively. Put that army to work by making yourself better than your idealized enemy. But whatever you do, don’t just sit there and stew.
