SnowStar Series

Here are some past decks that have been , I am posting them here to enjoy, to be inspired. They all are totally unique and can not be duplicated.

Click on the links, or the images for more details about each deck.

All of these decks have been , they were one of a kind and unique.

 

WB#01

Ultimate FireStars  (iridescent)

3" x 4 7/8" (7.8 x 12.5 cm) ( large )
Extra thick card stock: The full deck stacked is 1 3/4" (3 cm) thick.

Hand painted full iridescent and fluorescent colors. The base prints for this are from the SnowStar series, and were monochromatic blue with some black shading to start. All color was added by painting. There is no glitter on the images in this particular deck. The iridescent is layered and total, it gives a dimensional effect, the changes in light will pick up the colors differently. As with all of my decks with fluorescent colors, it requires full spectrum light to be seen correctly. Daylight or LED lights are good. 

Backs are hand painted light blue, with glitter.

Ostara 

Smaller medium size: 2 1/2" x 4" (6.3 x10.1 cm)
With Fluorescent and iridescent colors added.
White backs and glitter added.
Lighter weight cardstock.

This deck was painted at the time of the spring equinox, 2023  which is also known as Ostara. It incorporates the energy and inspiration of that time.
I did a total full treatment of the iridescent, and after I did all that painting I did not want to obscure or compromise it's luminous beauty with any glitter.

Snow Fire Sunset

Large size: 3 1/8" x 4 7/8" (8 x 12.5 cm)
Glitter, fluorescent and iridescent colors added.
Backs are pearl iridescent white and glitter added.

This deck was painted in the wintertime, and there was snow on the ground here. I was inspired by the  colors of winter sunsets, rosy pinks into golden orangey shades. A time to go deep within, into the forces of nature and night. But with flash and sparkle. An intense deck.

Snow Star Light

Large size: 3 1/8" x 4 7/8" (8 x 12.5 cm)
Lighter cardstock.
With glitter, iridescent and fluorescent colors.

Another earlier one from the heart of winter. It has full treatment with glitter, iridescent and hand painting with very subtle fluorescent mixed in with the iridescent. Fine work with the gold details. A lot of unique painting went into this deck, many days, many hours.  It has the lighter weight card stock and a silver sparkly pouch. This is the most subtle one as to the added painted in colors. After I did this one I made some with more intensity of color added.

Snow Star Light

Large: 3 1/8" x 4 7/8" (8 x 12.5 cm)
Iridescent and fluorescent colors. Thick card stock.
Backs rosy-pearl white, light glitter.
Still winter as I painted this one,  I went even further with the color than number 8.  I first paint with iridescent and I built up the iridescent  and added more color. It was a struggle for me, deciding to glitter or not? I really wanted this one to be pure, bt glitter is so amazing.  I got up my courage and laminated it NO glitter. Once laminated it is not possible to add anything more. So glad I did this.  A totally unique once in a lifetime deck.

Snow Star Light

Small medium size: 2 1/2" x 4" (6.3 x10.1 cm)
Lighter card stock.
Very subtle glitter added.
Backs have printed design.

This deck is very light, full of light, pure, basically the unchanged  original SnowStar images. However it has a very small touch of glitter, just a tiny touch of it. The card stock is the lighter weight stock.  This could be an easy travel deck, since it is light weight and not too big.

May Rose

Large size: 3 1/8" x5" (8 x 12.5 cm)
Iridescent, and fluorescent.

The iridescent is totally developed and next to impossible to capture in pictures. Luminous, pearlescent, built up  in layers. It is early May, and the greens are still just starting. Here we have a full magical magenta rose cast to the entire deck. The rose-violet ray of life energies.

Mystic Spring

Large size: 3 1/8" x5" (8 x 12.5 cm)
Fluorescent colors, and glitter added.
Heavy card stock.
Back are aqua-turquoise color. Sage-green silk brocade pouch.
The colors in this deck are more subtle, pastel, but the greens and in particular the green-gold is very deep, partly due to the glitter. Painted in the last half of May, with the spring colors this year absolutely stunning, every day watching as they progressed from green-gold to deeper greens.

SnowFire

Medium: 2 1/2" x 4" (6.3 x 10.1 cm)
Fluorescent colors.
Backs are aqua-blue color with light glitter. Pouch made from vintage Obi cloth. Heavy card stock.
Several weeks of intense painting went into  creating this deck, as we worked up to the full moon of June, in fiery Sagittarius. It is only fluorescent and very strong and pure.  This is a totally unique and powerful deck I am Sagittarius, and my mars also , this full moon closely aspected it, so this deck incorporates those energies. Clarification of purpose, direction, will,  right use of power, manifesting the inner light.
