Description
Almost anything in life is far more exciting than spending countless hours researching the finer points of production printing. There are myriad details involved in taking your card deck project from artistic inspiration to well-produced final product. You can spend days digging up all of this information on your own. Or, you can take advantage of my years of experience in deck production.
Whether you are creating a Tarot, Oracle, or Lenormand deck, this book will save you both time and headaches. And, it is more than just a text book, it is also a workbook, with sections designed to step you through the process of deciding between various options that will ultimately determine the quality of your finished product, be it a mass-market deck, or a premium collectors set.
This book is not about the glamorous and creative side of creating a deck. It is about the nitty-gritty details of getting your deck produced and ready for market.
