Thanks for posting about the meaning of the Fish card I have to admit that I first see "prosperity, abundance and increase" when I see that card. Then, the small businesses but I keep forgetting about the "adventure, imagination..." part of it and I'm thinking that the beautiful ocean scenery of the "Saltwater pic" is going to make a wonderful Fish Card! and like you said it goes so well next to the Anchor card Thanks also for having the Fish/Amethyst card in the Extras!

The Fish card is "my" card in a way because I am a Pisces!, maybe that is why I have been a lot into it and for The Book Card...might be because of the thirst for knowledge that I have and my unending love for books, there is just something about books!

But yeah, that is quite intriguing the way these 2 cards got so much involvement and strong feelings......I'm still pondering about it!

And for what you were saying about the new Cross card, yes, it is in great harmony with the Clouds card and there is defintely the 2 sides of The Cross card showing (I love that because that is the way I see this card! ) that reminds about the clouds card!

I surely can't wait to read with your Shabby Chic Lenormand! This is more than just another deck of the Lenormand Oracle! At least that is the way I sense it ;D

Hugs

LadyZelda, it wasn't just you, we were all engrossed with those 2 cards LOL

Thank you, my friend, for everything you have say, nice, about this deck...i can hardly wait to get it printed

QUESTION:
i am working on the 1. Rider (female on the beach...that you liked) i experimented in changing
the way her face and especially her chest looked, so i just redrew and painted them...
Here is what i need to know:
Do you want her WITH a 'headband' or WITHOUT a 'headband'?

OR... do you want to just keep the original card i did? (she will be going to the left in the printed card)

Here is a comparison image so you can decide...
plus the original card (when she was going to the right) so you can see the changes i made
to her face, hair, chest, and top of her dress...
please let me know, LadyZelda...

It was hard to make up my mind as both the original and new one looked great but in the end I will go for the new one you made WITHOUT the "headband"

Please get more rest. You really need it and if you don't then we will all have to figure out a way to take care of you. The cards can wait a few days. You need all you strength and energy right now.So watch TV eat some ice cream or pop some pop corn and enjoy your night.
So for my small opinion on this card is:

I like the second one where she is facing the other way and with the head band( The Single card). But what is the white thats on the horse? Is it a skirt? Its kinda distracting at least to me cause I do not see her leg at all? My eyes went right to it with out even noticing anything else on the card. JMHO.

It is her dress, she is wearing a long white dress

[silverwings94]

Oh Okay it was just a little hard to tell what it was. Now that I know that all is good.

Thank you, LadyZelda, that shows her hair more freely blowing in the wind without the
headband.

LOL Kat, if you only were to see me with the ice cream, popcorn, pizza, etc. since
yesterday... Oh, and cake!!!
Thank goodness i am walking it off today in about 2 1/2 hrs when i go my for walk with my
neighbor LOL

When i was creating this card, it was chosen, i think, to be going to the left since that
was the predominate way for the rider in most of the old traditional decks...why it is facing left.

And thank you so much, Kat, because of you, this lady rider now has something new...
you can see in the photo i posted below... It looks so much better now...thanks, hon

Hugs and Blessings,

Kat, glad you like the lady rider card now... there is also another 'extra' lady rider card
from an old post card i have that i reworked...so there will be '3' rider cards in all...
i will repost the GT images one last time...soon...when all the cards are completely done...
...getting very close to finishing now!

Just got back from walking...whew...it sure clears out the cob webs from the brain...especially
when you live in beautiful surroundings like i do. Bob, my walking buddy, and i saw these
2 baby deer and they were about 10 feet from us and i was talking to them and they just
stood there listening and moving their little ears...i swear they look like giant
Chihuahuas...LOL

Anyway, i am back now and starting up again on the editing of the text...

There are only about '10' more cards to change over to the larger text on... TEN MORE...YAY!!!
So Maybe tomorrow...done!
...but once they are all done...i want to go back and just glance each card and make sure
i have the right 'suit' image on each card, the right astrological info, and the right meaning,
oh and the right number on each card as well. It is so easy to overlook some of those things...

Kat, you know that those chocolate mint Klondike bars are VERY addicting...LOL
it took me about 2 weeks to get myself off of those ice cream bars! YIKES!

i thought you saw this one, sis, is the card that LadyZelda said she just couldn't live without...LOL

You're welcome regarding the swap (pink fish replacing the tank fish).
i really hope that there is a very special card in the deck for each person in this thread...
as i tired to make everyone happy without totally losing my own tastes in these cards.

Well off i go to finish up those 10 cards...then the final 'quick peek' at them and then to
upload them to the printers...and then to build a nice little web site for them...i already
have the site and just need to add some photos and sales pages to it.

There won't need to be a wait to test the printer before people can order this deck, as because
i just received some decks i ordered from them and i was very happy to see that they don't
over saturate their inks like TGC did. Also i received my order in 8 days.

...okay...back to work...
Lyn

[tarotlyn]

)...
YEP... ALL DONE!!! CARDS ARE FINISHED!!!


YAY...they are now ready to be uploaded to the printers...which i will do tomorrow (thurs)

Whew...i think i checked every single thing i could...all the numbering, suit images, text,
planet symbols, timing...etc. DONE

(MoonGypsy, my sis, i forgot to save the 'pink fish' after making them pink! LOL...so i had to
do it all over again...and this time it really pizazzzzzed for me...i love it too now...it is perfect!!!

Posted below, are the final GT images of all 70 cards that will be sold...and two will be surprise cards (a 3rd set of man/woman)
that will be a bonus and will not be sold. So there will be 72 cards total in the Special deck
and 36 cards total in the Traditional deck.

The two man/woman bonus cards are only when someone purchases the SPECIAL deck
which includes all the extra cards.
(note: the Special deck includes the 'traditional deck' as well as all the other extra cards)

So only two choices:
1. Traditional 36 card deck
2. OR...Traditional 36 card deck PLUS all the extra cards = 72 cards
(which will be called the SPECIAL DECK)

i hope that all made sense...LOL ...it is late! ...well only 1:45 am but i feel a little tired now after all the editing...
...so i will see all you lovely people in the morning...

Here is the line up of all the cards that will be printed:
(see posted photos below)

HUGS and again, thank you everyone that helped me, i mean you really hung in there with me
through this whole project...i really appreciate that so much and i had a blast with all of you!!!
i love you guys!
