To begin, welcome!

Hi, I'm Ash. Founder of Design & Think and creator of Design & Think Cards.

Design & Think Cards are simple exercises you can do to break creative blocks and help you find your flow. The purpose of the cards is to inspire people to reach their creative potential in enjoyable, innovative, accessible ways. Creative potential is in us, all around us, and I'm going to show you how to tap into yours with simple, powerful methods. 

Here’s how it the cards work...

You can pull a physical card or use the digital version. There is a QR code on the card that takes you to the card exercise webpage. Some exercises are free, some exercises are paid and require a subscription. Once you land on the card exercise page, simply follow the prompts.

Each card exercise is broken down into three steps:

1) Think.

2) Design.

3) Share.

You can do card exercises in as quickly as 5 minutes or have them last roughly 30. Each card exercise has a slightly different run time, and you can skip or lengthen steps as you see fit.

The cards and exercises are designed for individuals and teams, to be used at home or at work - remotely or in the office.

Here's a little more information about each of the 3 steps...

During the Think step, we start with an essay that sets the stage and introduces you to the concept included on the card. Then, you’ll be guided through a brief visualization related to the card concept to awaken your creative mind.

During the Design step, you’ll take a few minutes to reflect on the essay and guided visualization. Here, you’ll be given prompts to capture your insights and inspirations via writing and sketching.

During the Share phase, it’s time to share your creativity with the world. Post what you’ve created—whether it’s your thoughts, a photo, a drawing, or even a video. Use the hashtags

#designandthinkcards #designandthink #designthinking

to join a community of people sparking innovation and inspiration together. You never know - your unique perspective could inspire someone else to see the world differently. The cards aren't just about creativity—they are also about connection. Together, we can inspire a ripple effect to help others reach their creative potential. Just imagine the possibilities.

Dive In!

Go ahead and start now. Dive into the essay, immerse yourself in the guided visualization, reflect on what you discover, and share your journey. Creativity is closer than you think—it’s right here, waiting for you. See you at DesignAndThink.com, and, as a small business owner, I thank you for your support.
