Tea Leaf Reading Cards by Karin

Has anyone ever bought and used any of these cards? She sells them through her etsy shop.

I love tea and I'm very tempted by her Fantas-Tea deck, but I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with them.

oh what delightful cards! I LOVE the first edition tea leaf set. I find them adorable. However, the price of the deck is a bit more then I am willing to pay. I also like the "High Tea" deck. beautiful! Sadly, I can't give you any information on her/or her cards. Good Luck!

I had one of her decks that called mini attic deck. She said that she got the images from trading-cards that she collected.

I love the images, seems lovely, i had readings with this dck, fews of them feels accurate, some of them don't.

One should beware before buying this deck though, the cardback are not filled wirh artworks/ illustration but instead it filled with quotes like this : " There is no trouble so great or grave that cannot by a nice cup of tea- Tea With Karin copyright 2014"

For me personally, this is a huge turn off for me.

I see, I don't read reversals so it's not a problem for me. The copyright on the cards is annoying but I can deal.

Hello everyone,

I am Karin the creator of these Tea leaf reading cards you are chatting about. Just to let you know that the backs of the cards in the Fantas-Tea, Paragon and High Tea decks have all changed from the tea quote to the name of the actual deck and yes all the backs of the cards have my copyright and my name on them. If you look on my Etsy store there are pictures of these cards. In the Paragon deck the picture shows a special card with just the tea quote only on it. This is a single card and not on all the backs of them. Any queries I'm happy to answer. I have a youtube channel that does card flip through for my latest three decks. Please feel free to browse through.

I have the Paragon deck. It is based on symbols on vintage fortune telling cups which I found intriguing. The card stock is very much like the linen card stock you can find with Duck Soup's linen card stock, Tarot Everywhere, and Lenormand decks from Game of Hope, among others. The booklet feel very self-made but done so nicely. I have seen shabbier home made booklets. The back design of the cards is not my favourite, and it is not the most chic I have seen, but not a biggie. The cardbock box it came in is very average, not the sort you would keep, but it does come with an organza bag that you can use long term. Again, not the most amazing you ever seen, but very sensible, and practical. You are mainly paying for the deck. Judging from the cardstock, the price seems to me to about the same as other decks of the same quality. Not sure whether they ship from Australia or direct from printer elsewhere. The Paragon deck and all Karin's Tea Cards are very much like Lenormand. So if you like Leno, you will like this.

I can highly recommend the Paragon deck.

Artistically it may not be your cup of tea. But it is such a unique system, and the aesthetic is cheerful enough to make this deck worth while I think.

Hi guys,

Just to let you know that I do ship these from Australia. I have tried drop shipping in the past direct from printer and found too many delays. I prefer to inspect and check each and deck myself before shipping.

Regards
Karin

i have been in contact with the lovely creator of these very lovely Tea Leaf Reading Card
decks, and i am planning on purchasing 2 of them:

The First Edition Tea Leaf Reading Cards and the Scrap [scrapbook, really] Tea Leaf
Reading cards...
i am very interested in her system and eventually will order the tea leaf reading
charms. It's no secret that i am very attracted to Tea Cups. [Especially English Victorian style...bone china.]
They hold such fond memories for me, as my Grandma had a
beautiful collection of them...

The first edition Tea Leaf Reading Cards have a different lovely teacup depicted on each and every card...swoon!
