My Tarot Pouches
I crocheted some tarot pouches. For photo purposes I added some ribbon work to the tops of them but since I have found some interesting vintage jewerly to add to the pouches. Most of the jewelry I have found belonged to my grandmother or little pieces I have had for years and did not know what to do with. I like using my grandmother's things. Her name was Aura. How perfect. And that woman knew things. To bad they didn't have the lotto back them. There was not a raffle she could not win. She also always knew when I was hurt. No matter where she was. Now that lady had the Mojo. She would have been good at the tarot.
This is what they look like opened up. They tuck in the pouch for carrying around and then fold out so you can lay your cards out on them. I had so much fun crocheting them. It had been a while since I got to crochet and I found myself unable to stop. Yarn certainly has gone up. Anyhow it is something I will be adding to Etsy. Maybe a bit closer to the holidays. And I am also up for trading them. That might be fun. I can not take credit for inventing this idea. I did not.

Let it Go
Just showing a work in progress today. Using the same two dancers I used in another card this week, I haven't figured out where I want this one to go yet. So I am sharing a brain fart. I have a lot of these. Sometimes they sit and wait to be finished for a long time and then suddenly I find the right finishing piece. If a card becomes to much of a struggle then they sit in limbo forever. I have an entire graveyard of half finished pages. Designing these cards is fun for me so when it becomes a struggle I have the opportunity to simply let it go. I do like this part of getting older. One of my other favorites about getting older is not really giving a crap what other people think.
