LEESAH MARIE NOON

In 2012, Leesah suffered the unexpected loss of a close friend. A few months later, Leesah was staring out her window when a bright red cardinal landed on her tree. This special moment inspired Leesah to turn her pain into purpose. With a caring heart and creative mind, Leesah transformed her vision into a meaningful brand based on the spiritual beauty of cardinals. Beyond beautiful gift products and gift books, CARING CARDINALS® provides daily inspiration on their website and social media through Leesah’s photography, poetry, real-life stories and more. Leesah encourages everyone to spend more time in nature and offers a heartfelt message for those who are grieving: “When you see a cardinal in the trees and skies, embrace your memories instead of goodbyes.”

JIM SHORE

International Artist Jim Shore grew up in rural South Carolina, the son of artistic parents who instilled a love of American folk art. His grandmother was a master quilter who taught him the patience and skill to bring intricate designs to life. Jim worked decades developing his craft, manufacturing his own designs and traveling the country selling his work. Finally in 2001, he partnered with Enesco to create Heartwood Creek, an extremely successful brand that brought Jim world-wide fame. Today, Jim has received multiple awards from prestigious trade organizations: ICON HONORS Life Accomplishment Award in 2012, and eight annual awards from NALED including Artist of the Year in 2003, 2004 and 2005. Jim's artistry grew from his family roots where he developed a new design style blending a signature color palette with traditional imagery from quilting and a variety of folk art forms. Jim's unmistakable style applies to an endless variety of themes and formats, including his new River's End home decor collection and exciting design partnerships with popular culture icons like Disney, Peanuts, Looney Tunes and Hanna Barbera. The enormous popularity of Jim Shore products results from a lifetime of dedication, inspiration and hard work.

Jim has become a special part of the CARING CARDINALS® family. In 2017, he penned an eloquent Foreword for Caring Cardinals: Nature's Gift for Inner Peace. In 2019, Jim joined creative forces with Leesah Marie Noon to create gorgeous Cardinal Memorial Ornaments and Figurines. Each beautiful cardinal is paired with a Sentiment Card featuring a heartfelt memorial poem by Leesah.

Jim continues to design and offer unique and beautiful sculptures each year which are available at retailers throughout the world along with his online gift shop. Visit Jim's website to view his extensive art collections and learn more about this extraordinary artist.
