My favorite is Version 4!

Love the babies in the nest! And the flowering trees in the background add a nice color that blends with the border.


Version 2 is a close runner up.

I like version 2 the best. In #4 the babies look photoshopped. Sorry -

ALso -- I like #6 of the letters the best I think - I like the crocheted doily.

Oooh, skydancer is so right! When i just now saw the card larger on the borrowed pooter, they do have too much of a photo shopped appearance.

So my second choice is NOW my first choice--#2.

Right, Skydancer...the babies do look photoshopped...that was a rough draft...just to
get an idea on which type of storks you guys might like best

i have put you down for version 2 for the Storks and verion 6 of the Letters...
Thank you for your critique...i need to do some more work on version 4 today for sure!
(it was 3:30 am for goodness sakes...LOL )

Okay, my sis, i can fix the babies...i think i was really upset about TGC's printing too dark
on my Chi deck...
i just posted there about it in my Chi thread ..you might want to read that since
you purchased a deck and it is probably on its way to you right now...

it is so good to have you back my dear sis

Lyn

[tarotlyn]

i am back with the babies...(stork babies that is...LOL)

i was upset today about my other deck (printing)...but i am getting that resolved and
apparently people getting my deck are happy with it so far. i am telling you this so you
know why i wasn't on here all day creating in this thread

Here is the 17. Storks card (babies all fixed) i think it is okay now.

Also, i don't know if i told you, but the images i show you are only .jpg and the better ones
that i turn in to the printers are in .png which are sharper, clearer, and a little more colorful.

While the corrected version of four's babies came out much better, sweetie, i still am leaning a teensy bit more towards version 2. i have fallen in love with it since i discovered there are babies in that one,too. [Which i had missed in my first perusal.]

But i would be very happy with either version, if it comes down to that.

LOL my sis...you are so funny!

i have you down for version 2 now...it really stands out for sure...and those cute little
babies at their feet...LOL

You must have received your computer parts!!! YAY Sis is baaaaackk!
Thank you MoonGypsy, my sis, for your vote!




@everyone...
...been busy with emails, etc... its crazy today

QUESTION: regarding the 5. Tree card:
Should i use a 'cherry blossom' tree or a regular 'green' tree?
Or maybe just make up both and then let you decide?
...would like to know your strong opinions on this?

i will try to get another card worked on today... it is getting closer and closer...

Thank goodness i am getting this printer situation fixed before they are ready to print )

i am aiming at 'most of all good quality' ... 'lower prices' for you and better and 'cheaper' shipping if possible as well
(same for my Chi deck when it goes back on sale)

Lyn
...oh and where is our LadyZelda We miss her!
...i really hope she gets those computer problems fixed for herself soon!

[MoonGypsy]

Regarding the #5 TREE Card--My vote is for Cherry Blossoms!! They are so gorgeous in the DC area! i LOVE them! And the color would be lovely with this decks border!

ETA: i don't think this pic is free domain, but look how GORGEOUS!!! If you could find one something like this one:

Ok, I chose the cheaper way of fixing my PC and followed the Micro agent advice went on their site answer/support. So that is my first attempt to fix otherwise he said I could reformat but that means a lot of updates But we'll see, so far so good. I have to see what happens when I do a test by closing my lid! Because if what i have done didn't fix anything my laptop won't start normally.
But as it is working so far, I take the advantage of posting !!!

I'm so sorry to read about the problem with TGC!!! I understand your frustration because after all the hard work you put in the deck having it not exactly to the way you had created it is annoying! I hope all will be fixed the way you want it real soon!

Letter:

I really love the Letter 6 more than all the others. I love its simplicity while being so gorgeous and Shabby Chic, it really puts the theme of the card on display while having enough deco around the letter.

The Storks:

I love Version 2 for me it is the best, just the right kind of storks and the babies !!!! moreover gorgeous pic!

The Tree card:

While being nuts about Cherry Blossom trees, for the Lenormand card I would like to see some green so the pic that moongypsy posted doesn't do it for me. I would like some green visible because of the meaning of "health, growth" linked with the Tree Card
Problem is all Cherry Blossom images I have seen never have their leaves when the flowers are out...

Thus, question:

Could we have an Albizia also known as Mimosa tree????They have beautiful feather like flowers with beautiful fern type green leaves all at the same time!!! and they smell lovely (I know it is irrelevant for the card but just knowing the fact is a plus for interpreting the card)

Here is a link:

Great job my friends with all these cards!
