Lucky Deck Archetypical Playing Cards by TitiriteroDesign

“This Lucky Deck is a custom deck of playing cards. It came together in a desire to utilize the card design process that gave birth to our current decks of playing and Tarot cards, and apply it to the creation of an original, progressive deck. The result is a unique pack that is appealing to playing cards collectors, as well as intriguing and entertaining to play with for everyone who loves beautiful playing cards.

The deck keeps the structure of the regular pack of 54 cards with 4 custom suits (Fleurs-de-lis, Stars, Shells and Spirals) and two jokers. The face of each card is illustrated with archetypal images made with Victorian engravings that will reverberate as meaningful for the 21st card aficionados. The deck can be used to play common card games as well as other past-time such as magic tricks and possibly fortune-telling.

The cards measure 2.75″ x 3.75″ (traditional poker size) with rounded corners. They’re professionally printed on 320 gsm Casino quality smooth finish paper with patented UV textured coating, perfect to shuffle and deal. It come neatly packaged with a little white book outlining a brief history of card design as well as insights about the inspiration behind this true novelty deck.

This is the very first Limited Edition printing of only 10 decks signed, numbered and shrink wrapped in custom tuck box.” ~ TitiriteroDesign

Alice in Wonderland Playing Cards by Nicole Jackson

20 Feb

“This charming deck of playing cards is “Alice in Wonderland” themed and features illustrations drawn by John Teniel from “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” and “Through the Looking Glass” by Lewis Carroll. Each illustration was then digitally painted by me and placed on lovely coffee backgrounds (also painted by me). Each letter/number features a different image from the books. (15 different images total including the back of the cards.) The symbols for the club, spade, heart and diamond were designed by me.

Each deck is professionally printed, contains 54 cards (A-K plus two jokers) and comes in a clear plastic box. The cards are hard to crease industry quality bendable card, same as what casinos use.

I try my best to match the colors shown on the screen to the actual colors of the cards but because every screen is different the colors shown may vary slightly from the actual colors of the cards.” ~ Nicole Jackson
