I am re-inspired to continue my tarot deck that i started a couple of years ago. i have been saving images and scanning some of them when time permited.Now I have some questions to ask. I ahve been using the search tool in this forum and reading over lots of info, as well as PM'ing some of you about certani specifics.
now here are the questions/doubts/dilemmas i still have:
1-scan pics and make collage totally digially
....OR scan images to archive, but make the cards in 81/2X11 sheets and
then scan the finished image to retouch and add text digitally/
2- print at home in digital printer
.........OR take to printer and have them printed and cut there
*IF the latter...has any of you printed the cards in paper and laser process as they do for business cards? what were your results?
3-whether printed at home or not, do I still need to protect the cards? even if they are digitally laser printed?
*IF i DO need to protect them: is it best to laminate at 1.5ml
...........OR is it better to spray coat them?
3.1 IF i spray coat them, what is your best result product or process to do so? have you used Shellack?
thank you foryour input as I REALLY need it and REALLY appreciate it!
