Back in the day, my cousins and I used to play Happy Family \u2013\u00a0a card game that involves pairing up whole family members via random card pickings. I loved the retro illustrations on them, but unfortunately lost mine during my move 10 years ago. <\/p>\n
So when I heard about the new we are a happy family cards<\/a>, a project by Esti of P\u00edntame el d\u00eda<\/a> that brought together 8 international artists to illustrate the families for the cards, I was thrilled! Thereza Rowe<\/a>, Sarajo Frieden<\/a>, Lotte Andkilde<\/a>, Lady Desidia<\/a>, Pintameldia<\/a>, Alexandra Hedberg<\/a>, Aris Moore<\/a> and Kimberly Laurenti<\/a> all took part in the illustrations, while the box was designed by Jorge Fern\u00e1ndez<\/a>. Proceeds will also go to Doctors without borders, so you can play knowing that you’ve helped someone out as well.<\/p>\n I now have a sudden urge to find some friends to sit down and play cards again. Do kids these days play cards at all, I wonder?<\/p>\n ———————————————<\/p>\n It’s a rainy Friday over here (right now!), and I can’t resist the urge to cuddle up with a blanket. But before I head off for some R&R, there’s a post for a book review coming up later in the evening which I think that would make the best ending to a hectic week (did you see what the news was?<\/a>). <\/p>\n See you all later!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
