Advice from a Blueberry Greeting Card
I absolutely love what the cards say on the inside! They are true to life, so uplifting, funny and always spot on!
Fun card!
I've gotten some of these cards from a charity that I've given to in the past, and I can't remember which one.
I didn't pay much attention to the messages, but upon reading them more closely I'm going to have to find out where they came from.
I have eight of them, and I think they are hugely imaginative.

Advice from a Hummingbird Bookmark - Laminated
I had Advice for Life bookmarks for years and just ordered more as I use them for my daily meditation reading and any book or other "stuff" needing a marker. The first bird I saw on January 1st was a Chickadee so went to find a book for it. But the bookmark I most am enjoying through my last purchase is the one on Silence. The advice helps bring my back to the present moment. I enjoyed the enclosure from Ilan Shamir and his desire to share all life advices from his own "love" of life and nature
I often tell my husband “it’s not life or death” - the hummingbird says it better!! It also adds “Some Days are Just a Humdinger”. Definitely words to live by.
They arrived in time for me to send them out in Christmas cards. They were beautiful. It was in memory of someone we loved and I had read the poem in my speech at the funeral. Thank you for allowing me to share it with a simple but perfect bookmark. I did have to trim them so they would fit in the envelope :(.
My friends were delighted with the bookmarks!

Advice from a Sunflower Laminated Bookmark
Advice from a SunflowerTM
Be Outstanding in Your Field / Hold Your Head High / Spread Seeds of Happiness / Feed the Birds / Think Solar / Keep on the Sunny Side / Grow Up!
The sunflower serves as a beautiful metaphor for living a fulfilling life. "Be outstanding in your field" isn't just about excelling at work, but it speaks to the idea of being exceptional in your own unique way, wherever you find yourself. "Hold your head high" echoes the sunflower’s tall stem and bright face; it's a reminder to maintain confidence and pride in who you are. The phrase "spread seeds of happiness" means to share joy and kindness, much like how a sunflower shares its seeds to give life to new plants. "Feed the birds" serves as a reminder to give back and be a source of nourishment to others, whether emotionally, spiritually, or physically. "Think solar" suggests the importance of sustainability and looking toward the future, just as sunflowers are solar-powered through photosynthesis. "Keep on the sunny side" encourages optimism, urging you to focus on the positive aspects of life. Lastly, "grow up" is not a call for maturity in the conventional sense but an exhortation to continuously evolve, learn, and reach for the sky, much like a sunflower does. In summarizing the Advice from a Sunflower, the message is clear: Live boldly, love openly, and make a lasting impact.

These bookmarks combine the characteristics of animals, plants, nature, and mythological creatures into encouraging advice for the recipient. The employees of the company are incredibly nice and helpful. Further, they give back to nature by planting a tree for each order over a certain amount. I have bookmarked the company and will further do a shout out to them on fb. Ty, great product for gifts.
I'll bought 6 of these thru the years. Love em!
I love these bookmarks. the "advice" is a blessing. It gives encouragement and a smile and during these difficult times that means a lot to us.
Reminds me of the fields of sunflowers I saw on my vacation to Western Nebraska in August

INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT CARDINALS:
Cardinals are fascinating birds with unique traits and behaviors.
Brilliant Red Plumage – Male cardinals are known for their striking red feathers, which help them attract mates. Females are a warm brown with hints of red.
They Sing Year-Round – Unlike many songbirds that only sing during breeding season, both male and female cardinals sing throughout the year. Their song is a series of clear, whistling notes.
Mates Duet Together – Mated pairs often sing back and forth to each other, reinforcing their bond. The female may sing while sitting on the nest, and the male responds.
They Are Non-Migratory – Cardinals stay in their home range all year long, even during the coldest winters, making them a familiar sight in many backyards.
They Mate for Life – Cardinals often form long-term pair bonds, working together to build nests and raise young.
They Are Highly Territorial – Male cardinals are very protective of their territory and will aggressively defend it, sometimes even attacking their reflection in windows or mirrors.
Their Beaks Are Built for Cracking Seeds – Cardinals have strong, cone-shaped beaks that are perfect for cracking open seeds, though they also eat fruit and insects.
They Are a Symbol of Good Luck – Many cultures believe that seeing a cardinal is a sign of good luck, a message from a loved one, or even a spiritual guide.
Their Feathers Don’t Stay Red Without a Proper Diet – A cardinal’s red color comes from carotenoids in their diet, mainly from berries and other red fruits. Without enough of these pigments, their feathers may appear duller.
Cardinals are not only beautiful but also full of personality and significance in nature and culture.

Advice from a Butterfly Friendship Card
Advice from a Tree Bookmark - Laminated
Advice from a Tree®
"Advice from a Tree" was inspired by the characteristics and life cycle of a tree, drawing parallels between the growth and existence of trees and how humans can approach life. Let's break down each of the phrases:
1. Stand Tall and Proud: Regardless of their environment, trees grow tall and stand proud, often enduring harsh conditions and overcoming obstacles. - **Life Lesson:** In life, it’s crucial for individuals to have self-confidence and self-respect. Even in the face of adversity, challenges, or criticisms, we should stand firm in our beliefs and values, holding our heads high.
2. Sink your roots deeply into the Earth: For a tree to grow tall and strong, it must first sink its roots deep into the earth. Deep roots anchor the tree, nourish it, and ensure its stability. - **Life Lesson:** This phrase suggests the importance of understanding and connecting with our origins, values, and beliefs. By "sinking our roots", we establish a strong foundation, making us more resilient to external pressures. It also alludes to the idea of grounding oneself, being present, and staying connected with our core essence or community.
3. Be content with your natural beauty: Each tree is unique, from the twists in its branches to the pattern of its bark. They don't try to change their natural form; they simply grow and adapt. - **Life Lesson:** In a world that often pressures individuals to conform to certain standards of beauty or behavior, it’s important to recognize and appreciate one's unique qualities and beauty. Authenticity and self-acceptance are powerful attributes.
4. Drink plenty of water: - Water is essential for a tree's survival. It helps transport nutrients, supports photosynthesis, and maintains its overall health. - **Life Lesson:** Just as trees need water, humans need to hydrate and nourish themselves – physically, mentally, and emotionally. This can be a literal reminder to drink water for health but can also suggest the importance of "feeding" oneself with positive experiences, learning, and self-care.
5. Enjoy the View! - Trees, especially the tall ones, have witnessed countless sunrises, sunsets, storms, and clear skies from their vantage point. They're stationary observers of the world around them. - **Life Lesson:** Life is filled with ups and downs, and it’s essential to take a moment to appreciate the journey, the lessons, and the beauty around us. This encourages mindfulness, gratitude, and the ability to find joy in the present moment. These simple yet profound phrases serve as reminders that nature can often offer insights and lessons that can help guide our journey through life.

I really love the Advice for Life bookmarks! I have a rather large stash, I give them as little surprise gifts (especially to grandkids!), pop one in a letter to my bff, or tuck one into a gift-book for someone I love. I really find so many ways to share these beautiful bookmarks.
I always read through the advice and pick out one or two that speak to me. One of these on Advice from a Tree is “Enjoy the View” which is how Barbara Walters ended her show, The View, daily. We really do need to stop and enjoy the view from wherever we currently are in our lives. Take the time to appreciate everything we have - friends, people who love us, the ability to enjoy a beautiful day, etc.
The bookmarks are truly treasures and make great gifts. They are beautiful and sturdy, and they offer thoughtful messages each time you open your book.
The bookmarks were a hit with children from 5 to 17 participating in after school enrichment programs which includes visiting area parks. Snd nature preserves. I included a photo of the John Muir monument and information about him as well
I'm not sure, but The Tree may be the original bookmark (?) from Advice For Life products. This one is simple and practical, approx. 8 and 1/4 long x 2 and 1/8 wide. I like the laminated ones as they last forever, for me. Make great gifts. I love the philosophy on every one of their bookmarks. I have approx. 12 of them. Well-made. reasonable, even got a bonus bookmark for ordering 3 at once or just kindness - great customer service!!! Highly recommend, they're fun, great gifts for the readers in your life. I will be buying more for my bookclub's Christmas party!
