Description:

This begins the series for an entire deck (or at least the Major Arcana, since you can use a poker deck for the pips) of handmade Tarot cards.

For this first set, we will be making

  • 0 The Fool

  • 1 The Magician (or Magus)

  • 2 The High Priestess

  • 3 The Empress

As you can see, you do not have to use the Rider-Waite deck as your inspiration. I recommend you take a Google trip and find lots of examples to draw from. :)

Aeclectic Tarot is a wonderful resource and has hundreds of decks that you can see images from!

THE IMPORTANT STUFF

  • You will have 1 (one) partner

  • You will make each of the previous listed cards (in this case, there are 4 cards that you will make---always read the swap descriptions, as each set in the series may be different)

  • The cards are to be HANDMADE *this means NOT just printed out on a computer and done. You can print them, but you need to alter them in some way using rubber stamping, collage, papering, etc.**

  • Contact your partner to see if they want to actually USE the cards for reading purposes--if so, then you need to make sure that the cards are sturdy enough to do so. We don't want any bits or bobs falling off during readings.

  • Cards must be ATC sized for uniformity. 3.5 inches tall by 2.5 inches wide (no landscape orientations please)

If you have any questions, please PM ME DIRECTLY. I am likely not to see a message left here.
