I love using oracle decks or affirmation decks because they not only provide beautiful artwork to look at, but the messages have always provided me with the guidance I’m seeking at the time. This class will walk you through the method I use for creating handcrafted, illustrated cards that can be used as a tool to provide affirmations throughout your day or maybe you want to create a special gift for someone.

We’ll talk about the supplies you’ll need for this class and I’ll give you a few different ways to get text on your card without a lot of graphic design knowledge. Then we’ll move on to creating a Cosmic themed Deck together! I’ll show you how to create the background, provide you with different methods for creating the artwork on the front of the card, how to add all of those shiny bits us artists love so much, and how to turn your paper into cards! After I walk you through the cosmic themed deck, I’ll show you how to paint a variety of backgrounds so you can create multiple styles of decks. I’ll show you some mixed media techniques and how to really embellish your cards to make them uniquely you.

This class is a no pressure way to have fun with your art supplies while creating something you can use on a daily basis. Painting cards is also a relaxing way to engage in creativity if you’re feeling blocked or maybe you’re in between projects. This class is for all levels of artist!
