"Beside a well one does not thirst. Beside a sister one does not despair" 

-Nüshu Proverb

Originally a designed as just an Instagram post, so many people were requesting this be available as a card that we just had to make it into one! 

In the process of illustrating this quote, I learned that Nüshu was a language invented by women hundreds, possibly thousands of years ago in China. The women were oppressed, and Nüshu gave them a way to write letters to each other, to lament, and to form very close female friendships. 

When I was in the ICU, Grace was there everyday. She was the first person who was able to understand me as I finger spelled words into her hand. 
We read poetry, talked philosophy, did art, opened letters and had dance parties together. When my world seemed quite dark, she was light incarnate for me. 

I hope you have sisters in your life like that, whether by genetics or love. Sisters can provide us so much hope. I hope you send this to a sister who has been there for you.

    Let’s hear it for sisters!

    This card is perfect for sisters by birth and sisters by choice. I love the proverb, the artwork, the quality of the card. I highly recommend anything from Tiny & Snail. Their story touched my heart, and the cards do the same. 🩷

    A card that fits female friendship so fervently

    I think I have re-ordered this card for my collection at least three times— I find the verse so soothing AND strengthening and every female close friend/ acquaintance/ cousin, etc, immediately appreciates this…Thankful that it is still being printed and hope it always will be…Thanks again

    Beside A Sister

    Your cards say so much in so few words. I purchased your "Beside A Sister " card. Three of them actually for my three daughters. Since they were young I have said to them as they left the house to stay together , look out for each other, and make good decisions , and as aduts they continue to do just that. This card gives them a tangible representation of the sister bond I wish for them always. Thank you for making beautiful cards that express what my heart is trying to say.
