Lots of great info - and I especially appreciated the info on the use of foil with a completed BOTA deck. I am in the beginning process of coloring my own BOTA deck, and would love to add the foil to it! Loved the music too! Blessings, Bonnie Leisa:

One to clarify that I seldom used my friend's deck because it was so precious to me that I didn't want to damage it. The second thought is about another great use for a handcrafted copy of your favorite deck is to make a miniature version to carry with you. Based on your instruction, I'm going to try to create one or two! Thanks, again, Penny Hi, Leisa,

It's particular poignant for me. Well over 20 years ago, a dear friend of mine hand drew a entire tarot deck using dragons for the majors and court cards - and I never used it. Needless to say, it's one of my most treasured possessions. He passed away about a month ago, and since then I have been using his deck quite often. It's also been a perfect grieving tool. His partner recently sent me the notebook my friend used for his preliminary designs, as well as all the templates he used. It was fascinating to track his design and production process. Hand crafted decks are so special and I so appreciate you sharing your process and journey, Leisa. I know anyone who tries it will love the outcome. Thanks, Penny Oh, Leisa,

If I am successful I just might make a copy of one of my most popular decks and get the nerve to cut out the words on the minor arcana. like you did Leisa (lol) Very informative, I am going to try it out.
