Mine is here! Here are my very, very initial impressions. I've looked through the deck twice, haven't ever owned any other copy/version of it, and I haven't even taken the plastic wrap off of the book yet.
- It's gorgeous. I think the antique/aging effect is lovely. The combination of the antiquing and the white borders doesn't bother me.
- That said, I think I really want another, non-antiqued version as well. As lovely as this is, I feel like seeing the deck in full, vivid color would be even better. However, had I gotten a different version first, I probably would've still wanted this one as well. I do think, though, that I will like a more colorful version more than this one.
- I love the backs. I mean, I really love the backs. They're fantastic.
- I'm just thrilled to own this deck, in any edition.
Is anyone still really wanting to see a few snapshots? I'll try to take one tonight but I'm rushing around trying to get my kids fed and ready to go off to my folks' place because I have book club tonight!
