These last months I have been busy creating a Majors Only deck, called the Pippa Tarot.
A little background: Pippa was a small doll (6,5") that was made by Palitoy in the UK and sold in the 1970's. Pippa is the main character/doll, but she had a bunch of friends with different names. But the dolls are usually referred to as Pippa dolls. In the US there was an equivalent of Pippa, called Dawn, produced by Topper.
But this tarot is featuring only Pippa dolls. I started collecting these next to tarot (still my main passion) about two years ago. And somewhere along the way the idea of making a tarot featuring the pippa dolls was born.
I am using my own dolls, have made the outfits, backgrounds etc etc and will be photographing these to make the cards. It will be a majors only deck, with a few extra cards.
Anyway, I hope you all like them. I do plan on having them printed, probably by the Gamecrafter. This is the first card that is ready: The Magician:
