Tarot Class
I have been asked in my Tarot Class to come up with 5 online images that I feel encapsulate the series of tarot cards that I am currently studying. Unfortunately (or fortunately however you choose to look at it) I do not have unlimited access to Internet. The good part about this is not being distracted into a mind boggling oblivion of fantastic sites I discover every time I go out searching for my homework. And the bad is, well look at all the amazing sites I miss out on by not mindlessly searching for whatever suits my interpretation of the cards. So I had to come up with a solution to this dilemma and my solution was to invent or create my own tarot cards for my homework assignments. I have taken my obsession with digital scrapbooking and turned it into amateur tarot card designing. And please forgive me because it is amateur!! I love love love to digital scrapbook because first of all I can’t draw a stick figure, second there is never anything worth watching on TV and third it keeps me out of the bars (really though I don’t have piles and piles of scrap accessories from one end of my house to the other. When I am done with digital I just put the laptop to bed. Got to love that!!
So here it goes with my first series of 19 cards. ( I gipped you on a Sword card. I sort of lost my mojo and yet I loved designing this card best.) I can only hope I get better at this as I become more familiar with the cards meanings, more familiar with my truckloads of digital files and find some semblance of an imagination. I may look back at these cards and laugh. Only time and more discovery unleashed will tell the tale. Anyhow that is my story and I am sticking to it.

Ace of Swords
I have only made four of the Swords. I seemed to have run out of creativity at this point. I really enjoy trying to creat a card from digital images I have.

Magician
I thought it would be fun to have the rabbit pull the Magician out of the hat for a change.
This has a Mardi Gras feel to it.
Fool's Journey


This little lady is back. Looks like her crazy bunny friend once again took the plunge before she did. What lies behind the door? She is about to find out.
