The Rabbit Tarot

Just found this great Rabbit tarot set on Etsy!!

that's way cute. no pip cards shown in any of the images, so one can only assume they are plain..?

It is way cute!

I found some links in my quest to determine whether or not the pips are illustrated.

Looks like the author's site or blog:

Her flickr site, which shows some images, including one of her standing in front of the cards. There appear to be a lot of illustrated cards in that pic, so perhaps there are illustrated minors?

Daisies equal Pentacles. This looks like a possible Minors pic, maybe the Nine of Pentacles:

Here are some more that look like pips:

Cute set! I wonder how they are printed. I prefer them mass-printed versus self-printed, as they seem to shuffle better when they don't have that thick laminate on them.

I think they are self published..i am asking.. I saw on her twitter when she got the decks in from the printer etc...

I see the suits are fully illustrated RW style, except, as you say they are named = Stick, Tulip, Carrot & Daisy.

A whimsical deck, I like the rabbits, and the card size. But not fond of the big black borders. I wonder what the card-stock is like?

This is what she tweeted back.

yes, self published (professionally printed), a different image for each tarot card. It took me 8 months to paint it all!

I looked at the links you posted, lovely artwork, the sort I like.

Those are absolutely adorable!
I think I have to have those!

Here is another pip; cute! With carrots!

And a way to win a free copy of the Rabbit Tarot. Apparently she is doing a giveaway!

I, too, would like to know more about the card stock. I have one hand-made deck, and while it is cute, I can't read with it. Plus I have the Hello Tarot, and again, you can't shuffle those cards. So yes, the card stock would matter.

I didn't have anything like them, and couldn't wait... so this new deck is on its way! I should have them by the end of next week, hopefully. I love the playful art, and am willing to gamble on the card stock.
