This is the opening page to the Peanuts® Tarot deck site, if you haven't already seen it. It's a charming and fairly accurate Tarot. Subsequent pages detail the thinking that went into its creation.
The reason I bring it up here is because of those subsequent pages that the deck artist uses to explain why and how he made it. Often in these postings we see the germs of good ideas for Tarot decks. Here's a guy who not only had that germ, but the will to see it through into a finished item. (In this case, it's the more admirable, from a certain point of view, since he gets no material return from his effort.) For the insightful reader, there are several clues here about how one thinks about the deck Idea, and begins to turn it into objective reality.
(And if I'm being annoying, just say so and I'll shut up.)
