Two More Oracle Cards Complete!

Good evening everyone! I thought I would post 2 more finished oracle cards to the blog. Unfortunately, it has been about a month since I posted any finished oracle card art.  For anyone new to this blog who hasn't seen my older posts, I am in the process of creating an intuitive oracle card deck. The deck will be 44-50 cards.  All of the cards are nature based and drawn in the same style. I was hoping to complete this deck over the summer, but life was just too hectic. The drama in my life shows no signs of slowing down, so this project may take a really long time to finish. So far, there are 8 finished cards in this deck.  As I stated in an older post, I am not sure if I want to border the cards, and haven't decided on how or if the cards will be titled.  For now, I am simply satisfied in having finished the artwork for these cards.

 The first card is the Transformation card.  In the standard tarot deck, this would be the Death card.  The butterfly symbolizes that change is a necessary part of life.  Sometimes we do not welcome change, but we must face change in order to learn and grow.  Our existence is ever-changing. All things are reborn fresh, new and pure. This card represents a major life change that is necessary for us to evolve into the person we are meant to be.  A caterpillar must face its fear of change in order to grow into a beautiful butterfly.  The second card is the Destiny card.  This card represents going with the flow of life.   The jelly fish must let go of control and allow the current of life to lead him in the right direction.  Your purpose in life will not manifest if you cannot trust the universe. Have faith that you are right where you need to be at this time.

As always, I hope all of you have a great night.  Please feel free to comment below and share this post on social media if you enjoy this blog.  You can also follow the Copper Blossom Paperie blog via email or google+. ❤ Tia - Copper Blossom Paperie ❤

A Couple More Oracle Cards

I thought I would post 2 more finished cards to the blog. I forgot to mention yesterday that I am not sure if I want to put titles and meanings on the cards or leave them as they are.  I knew from the beginning that I wanted the artwork to pop without being cluttered by a border since I hate the distraction some borders cause.  I think that the cards will appeal to a grater audience if they didn't have the meanings attached directly.  I believe personally that intuition is a powerful thing... so maybe these can be a more intuitive deck?

 The first card is the Wish card.  The ladybug is a sign of luck and encourages us to take risks and make our dreams become real. Now is the perfect time to start a new business venture or start a family.  The second card is the hard work card. The bee is always busy collecting pollen and tending to the hive with little time to enjoy the beauty of life.  This is a time for hard work or mastering a skill. It may seem like you are putting more effort in than what you are getting out at this time, but this is a necessary step along your life's path.

I would love to hear what you think about this art work.  Please comment below and share my blog on social media if you are a fan!   ❤ Tia - Copper Blossom Paper Gallery ❤

First 2 Oracle Cards Revealed!

Hello and thanks for stopping by.  I am so thrilled to have so many people showing my blog love. My first freebie card was a hit!  I apologize for the card not being formatted to 4"x6".  I posted it late last night, and didn't think about it until today.  I hope no one had issues formatting it to the proper size. I will be formatting everything from now on so no one has to guess what size it will print.  I love working with digital media, so I am excited to create fun printables for everyone.

Ok, now for the big reveal.  As I stated in my returning post, I am spiritual and have been working on creating an oracle deck. (I've also been writing a book about intuition and connecting to the energies around us, but that is a whole other ball game).  My spirituality connects me to nature and the earth, so it is only natural that my deck would be based on the natural world. These drawings are done by hand on acid free chip board using alcohol markers, dylusions ink, gel pens, distress paint, acrylic paint, colored pencil, and anything else I may have lying around.  I absolutely love the images I have produced thus far.  I will be revealing them to you as I finish them.

 The first image is the intuition card.  In tarot, it would be the moon card.  This card represents the need to look inward for guidance. It is a time to reconnect with our emotions, and silence the negative chatter in our minds.  The second image is the wisdom/truth card.  The owl represents the need to be truthful and to resolve current problems methodically. Now is not the time to be taking action.  You will save yourself a lot of stress if you create a strategic plan of action and gain knowledge about the issue before entering into battle.
