    Thank you Mark! If I have not shared this before, you might like these books and videos that I am presently at a stop on... Victoria.auberon.org wants $300.00 to renew the paid site so I am going to have to let it laps back to a free site. The prices for these sites have gone way up! I think the hosts must be trying to make up for shortfalls caused by the pandemic, lo... (I am going to pay for the renewal of the Xlibris site below however...) You might like the videos. The one for The Ghost tree was done with cellphone clips during the pandemic.... the horse story video was recorded in a studio. I did the art work and creation of videos that I think I based on some tips from you if I recall. The stories are mine, the voice over is not mine, and I incorporated some collaboration of suggestions on color and layout from Vincent Orsini (Mr. Jones on FAR.) There are intentional pauses in places that are not suggesting the end -- you have to follow the red line to know if you have come to the end... ttps://www.victoriaauberonbooks.com

Excellent painting of these two hearts showing as two tulips. With beautiful colors and details.
Wonderful composition with the fresh green background and overall pleasing presentation.

    Thank you so much for your kind review! As I explained to some reviewers who did not know what Oracle cards were, I got set up with the template for the cards because someone wanted me to design a set of fortune telling cards, called Oracle Cards, for them but they never followed through. Since they didn't, I began playing around with making my own... This is how this experiment came about. There are a few more details I haven't mentioned, but too much to go into here. Tarot cards that most people have heard of from movies at least, are also a fortune telling card type but very old and of a different nature. I made these for a 17 card layout that has past, future, what the querent has to work with and use and so on in the position of the "spread." If a card with a negative meaning falls in a good position, then that it is imagined that the negative influence works for a positive result. For example if the ten of spades/swords should fall in a positive position this suggests that the "grief" will be a catalyst to positive action of some kind -- maybe selling a house because parents have passed away -- that kind of thing. Its an interesting "philosophy" this stuff. Even if one does not want to buy into the possibility that the future can be foretold, I think they are good for inspiring the querent to think "outside the box" of wherever they may be stuck in their life... enjoy!

You are using all my 6's your work on these playing cards is so deserving. Your construction ideas are really good. The design is appealing. The colour pallet eye catching, overall super presentation

Wow! That was my first thought! This is another beautiful card ! The flowers are just gorgeous and so well created! I like the way you have placed them here, love the way you placed the hearts in top left and bottom right with the 2.
Well applied lettering .again your background color is spot on! It really works to emphasize the flowers , supporting greenery and the hearts as well as the lettering!
This is truly fascinating and I like that rope border!
Well presented!

Another lovely card Daphne, and the color pallet is truly lovely. The light yellow background is lovely together with red flowers and green leaves.

I also like the rope framing the flowers, and the darker shades behind the flowers.

The composition of this card is very good with a very good balance. I really like this two of hearts card. It is so well done.

Comment from Thomas Blanks


Now the two on this one is upside-down, not backward. The nine of diamonds is wrong! it was backward, not upside-down! check it out. I know I am right.

Fine digital art and outstanding lettering. The theme is all together. I don't know much about cards but the word is fine, kind of crafts style flowers, leaves. The background is excellent.

A good looking nature image posted here! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of those beautiful blooms on that playing card. Textures, colours and tones are good. Nicely created!
