Manufactured Blank Tarot Deck

[UrbanFool]

Just curious, has anyone run these cards through their inkjet printer? I thought I'd order a deck and see what I can do with them.

Personally, I don't think I have great insight to create my own deck, but you never know.

Which one ?

I didn't realize there was more than one. I was looking at the blank deck offered by AzureGreen.

Thanks; following up now ! I have a hefty interest in the Inspiration ones !

here's another one: http://www.plaincards.com/Shop/shop...ng+ Cards+-+ Only+Ships+to+Continental+U.S.

i think this one's better since it comes in big sheet form, has free casing and also has playing card coating to go with the set. has anyone tried using this one?

plaincards have been discussed many times in this forum. just do a search and I think you'll find all you need to know.

Myself, I like them. I couldn't get them to work with my lazer printer (wouldn't load), but they work great in my inkjet.

I've used the PlainCards to draw/colour on. I don't think they're good AT ALL. Bad stock that creases easily and the cards stick together, and bloody huge perforations. If you use the protective coating, it smells really strongly.

Don't waste your money. Use full-sheet cardstock or plain index cards and laminate them after, or glue your pictures onto the manufactured blank cards.

I've used the Inspiration ones. They're very good if you want to create your own paper-and-scissors collage, or draw on them directly with permanent markers. But I think the coating on these will not be too conducive to printing on them directly.

thanks for the info. more than the perforations, i was anxious to know how the coating holds up when you put cards together.

I found these blank playing cards that could be used to create a personal tarot/oracle deck.

They come in two sizes.

Well, I just received my blank deck from AzureGreen yesterday, so I guess I can print on it and see for myself. The back design is the exact plaid from the Rider-Waite deck.

I'll have to check those out from Dick Blick.
