i am going to cherish this deck so much! i can hardly wait to hold it in my hands.

Same here! This is going to be "The" Lenormand deck for me! Moreover, there are cards that are like if they were meant personally for me! Giving just one example:

The Sun card, it is like the pic was taken where I live! Again this morning while I was walking with my little Chi, I saw the sun over the hill just like in the Sun card and I smiled thinking of Lyn's Sun card!

i only got 3 hrs of sleep last night ...went to bed at 3am woke up at 6am
with Spirits teaching me how to do this! They were teaching me in my sleep but i woke up
right at the end of a 'particular' Lenormand card (not sure which one yet but it was going to
be difficult for me). They were actually programming my mind in preparation for it...LOL
i swear it is not me with all the talent!!!

i really hope i can make it through the day...a big day for sure with the hair appt and pow wow!!!

Note: i am having to take some of your 'smilies' out of your posts as i reply to them because there
are 39 and this won't post to AT unless there are only 22 smilies!!! LOL That means that i
have to remove '17' smilies to be able to respond to all your post at one time! YIKES!!!
So, i can't give any of you any hearts or laughs or kisses (smilies)...but i can give you LOL's and Ha ha...
(Ha Ha)...we just ran out of smilies!!! YIKES...

Now, sis, to answer this that you posted earlier...sorry i had missed it. It is very thrilling
to me that you feel this way...so progressive, as i keep running into stubborn people that
that say 'i SHOULD STAY IN THE BOX'...LOL ... so you, my dearest friend, are a breath of fresh air! Thank you!!! (heart here...LOL)

Thank you Skydancer, but did i lose you with the 'woman' rider card? i read your post elsewhere
recently that you only like a male rider. i really hope you can open yourself up to changes
because i predict that they are coming...and in a BIG way to the Lenormand deck...
It is only a matter of time, but the explosion is happening right now! i hope you are with us for real.

i have tired to stay with tradition as much as i can, but i felt that there had to be some
corrections to the old school of thinking regarding these cards. Like for instance, didn't they
have cats when the Lenormand deck was first created? And having to double up on cards
to be able to read another man or woman in the deck? ... It was just time for the Cat, and
i just read that Melissa had added extra man/woman cards to her deck, but i didn't know that
and i don't have her deck. So, see, change has already started...and WILL continue...

Anyway i am glad you are still posting here and still like these cards in spite of my jumping
out of the box somewhat...i try to stay in it, BUT...something takes me over...LOL

But, i will make do... i am used to being the odd lady out...

ETA: Your "man card" really is quite stunning, sis!

(heart here) Sis, this is why i couldn't sleep last night...we MUST have 1 MORE SET OF MAN/WOMAN cards
in this deck... so, can you give me a link to a good, large, public domain photo of (YES) Jack Sparrow? (Johnny Depp)LOL
A 'just to the waist' image is okay, as i don't see too many full bodied photos of him...dang! LOL

i will add him into the deck if you can do that, also i will need a woman that will match him too...yes?
He is sooo incredibly handsome! (kiss here...LOL)

There...now i will be able to sleep tonight...plus i want the sparrow in too! LOL Ha Ha

And i am LOVING the Lady Rider Card!!!
Oh i wish i could go with you to the Pow Wow! It's been too long since i have been to one.

(heart here) Sis, thank you sis, i am so happy that you do like my work and the card inserts
that i decided to use. Right, they really blend in nicely but will show up enough for those that
just have to have the inserts!
Regarding the Lady Rider card...do you still think i should loose the black background? i kind of
like the 'pow' factor! LOL But can change it if enough agree it needs a better background?
So far, Alta and LadyZelda want a different background...what do you think, sis?

And the symbol given for Gay/Lesbien people is just perfect!

I have to comment on what you say last....I LOVE Pow wows,also! It is just so amazing to fine such kindred spirits! I've been going regularly but since I moved to where I live now, that is the only down side...I've only found 1 Pow wow around us! and I'm gonna try it when it comes during the fall but it is in a small town and I'm not sure about that...If it is not big I'm gonna miss dearly the big Pow wows I used to go to! Thing is there is a very big one...but I would have to travel for about a day thus stay for the night and with all my 4 legs babies that would be difficult! Ok I stop right there because I know this is out of context! Forgive me for that little side track comment!

I understand what you meant about the "Man"; there is what we are drawn to in real life...I, too always have gone for the "pirate" type of men...but we still the other handsome guys who are more "stylish", they are quite handsome to look at... And, the ones that Lyn found are sooooooooo handsome and perfect for the deck! They are surely going to be a delight to look at each time they come around!

(heart here) Thank you LadyZelda, for your comments on the playing card inserts and also
thinking my deck is awesome. And also your comments on the trans gender symbol i am using...
It was the prettiest one i could find...and i am able to change the hue to match any
particular playing card suit at the bottom. i try to make you all happy (smile face and heart here...LOL)
i hope you can enjoy the pow wow you found in your area! Any pow wow is special...
When i traveled Texas a lot, there was always a LARGE one going on somewhere there!
i love this one because it is a Spiritual group that take in problem teens and adults off the street
and rehabilitate them...i especially love the giant drum with about 10 real Indians sitting around it
and drumming loudly and chanting late into the night...i hope i don't get to sleepy...LOL

i know you said you wanted 'good looking' people in the deck...so i tried hard for that and
i am very pleased you are happy with them...wait till you see my snake...LOL (different and
because of that i will probably...heaven forbid...have to have two snakes...one traditional
and one i can like...LOL)

I tell you, you certainly ARE a genius and you have such a gift!
The Woman is just perfect match for the 1st man!!! He's gonna fall for her and vise versa! Why don't we have more smilies?....I need a drop down jaw right now!
And the 2nd couple!!! ! Again a perfect match and both are so gorgeous in the more relax style....
Oh boy, so much chemistry and romance! And everything is perfect, they blend with the other cards, they are definitely Shabby Chic, the backgrounds are awesome and matching each couple so well! Stunning job Lyn! you did it again!

(heart here) i am so glad, LadyZelda, to hear from you that you found 'romance' in my
Man/Woman cards!!! YES!!! that was what i was aiming for...romance...

(heart here) Sis, i guess i have improved...but remember as i said i am being taught in my sleep!!! (bug eyes here...LOL)
It tickles my heart that you are so anxious for this deck to be completed. i really hope we
will all be able to read with it...YIKES...it is one thing to create it and another to use it!

(heart here) LadyZelda, it sounds like these cards are 'speaking' to your heart as much as they have been to mine!
Oh, and about your Chi...still 18 cards left to do there...what to get your Chi in? Let me know!


Okay, i saved one little heart for you all at the end...LOL
HUGS, Lyn

[tarotlyn]

Okay, now, MoonGypsy, my sis...this one is for you (and me...LOL)

Oh BTW...this image is in the public domain...and all over the net...and i like this one of him...do you?

Now, sis, all i need is a beautiful woman, about the same size and type of photo, to match him...
...do any names come to mind for this? (anyone can answer this question)...it must be a
public domain image though or i can't use it.

i am leaving for hair appt soon and if no one has suggested a female for 'Sparrow's' match, then i will find one myself later...

Hope you like him sis?
Lyn

[MoonGypsy]

Oh My!

ETA: i mean...er...um...yes!

i can't think of a matching woman off hand, at the Moment, but i will give it a think!

[LadyZelda]

woohoo! Goodness gracious...now that's gonna be hard to concentrate on the other cards, when that one is around...
You're gonna drive everyone nuts with that one! !

Now, let's think of a girl for him??? Would that be me???

Ok, seriously I can't think of anyone right now, if someone comes up I will post again!

Still trying to get a good quality...

Happy time at the Powwow!

[LadyZelda]

So far this is what I have (but I don't know if you can find free domain pics)

Kirsten Stewart

Alexa Davalos

[tarotlyn]

Back from hair dresser''s and trying to rest for a couple of hours before the pow wow

Was that card a surprise? LOL...i love doing that, especially for my sis!
Did i pick the right image of him, do you think?

Let me know if you come of with a female's name and i can check her out...

LadyZelda...yes, it would be you, and MoonGypsy, me, and probably several other women on here
that would like to be his 'next gal.' LOL

Seriously, though, if you think of a female that would look for with 'sparrow man,' be sure
to send me her name so i can check her out...

;heart: Lyn

No ma'am...not me...a thousand Capt. Jack Sparrows couldn't even come close to my Beloved V....

Yes, though in regards to the Depp "Man" Card. It is very Shabby Chic!

The Woman that keeps popping up n my mind is Catherine Zeta-Jones.


Or perhaps Helena Bonham-Carter, who i adore

ETA:

i am overwhelmed with the thought of a pic of Jane Seymour from the 1980 movie "Somewhere in Time"!!!

Something like this pic:

Or this one:

i also just thought of Penelope Cruz...
i'll stop now..

[Skydancer]

ME! ME! ME! I want to be the woman card for the Jack Sparrow man card!!!

and I do mean MAN card! ~ yikes!


oh - and the lady rider will work just fine, Lyn. For Ciro's deck tho' I think it should be a man. because it's too sexy the way it is for a rider card, what with the naked woman and all. That's not what Lenormand is about.


There! Now you have more smilies to take out!!!
________________________________________________

I vote for Penelope Cruz. She would just match good ol' Jack!! In spirit and looks both.
