I just received my sets, and they are spectacular. Can’t wait to see the reactions of my “selected” friends who will be the lucky recipients of a box. They make great gifts. They are very, very nice and I love them.

I am Cindy’s lifelong friend. I’m beyond proud of her for following a dream that brings so many others pure joy! Since receiving my gorgeous set of cards, I have been sending three to five a week to connect to team members, leaders on my team, as well as valued customers. Every single recipient has commented about these beautiful notecards and just how special the message was! I can’t wait to buy my next set!

I appreciate the recognition as being your very first repeat customer, however, you and your team are the ones who should be thanked. You guys created a way to help people through the best of days and the worst of days of life’s journey.  Your cards are so truly awesome. I gave my mom the "My Marvelous Mother" box for her 85th birthday. She feels so special being able to read a new inspirational card every day.

This card collection of wonderful, light-hearted, spiritual, and amusing quotes transported us to times of sweet togetherness with our beautiful, sweet fur baby, Rosie. Most of the cards reminded us of specific, special, and poignant moments over the years. We started writing these memories on the back of the very card that inspired each memory! Now, we have captured the most special moments of our time together, keeping Rosie even closer in our hearts as time goes by. Thank you, Dezire to Inspire, for making this possible for us. Rosie’s legacy lives on!!!!!!

Thank you for the beautiful D2I card set, Perseverance and Peace. It is so beautiful with such meaningful and gentle words of encouragement. Each card is either food for thought or a hug for the heart. I can see and hear you on each card. I am so proud of what you have created.
