Italian Tarot
Cards by Patti Gramza.
This mini book by
Chris Peden had visitors to our booth at stamp shows practically
fainting from awe and delight.
Irene Zanni,
aka
La Regina, made the above two cards using stamps from set #3, above.
(The
black and white card is featured in the Jan. 2002 issue of Vamp Stamp News.)
Irene also made a stunning playing card book based on a centuries-old
form,
below, using cards from set #1.You can learn how to make one like this
in
the Nov./Dec. 2000 issue of Somerset Studio,
which features an article by Irene and her friend Linda Reid, on their
collaboration on their "Duchess/Regina" book.
Below, the
book closed and opened up.
Below, Susan
Nussdorf
made another intriguing set of playing cards. She embossed the large
one
in white, and rubbed brown ink over it. A coordinating envelope
finishes
it off.
Such a sweet bookmark by PJ Simpkins, aka
PJ Sails, on the left and on the right,
