TWO DAYS LEFT!! Get your final entries in!



H

i all! I'm really looking forward to seeing what comes from this project as I have already put a lot of work into it and have become quite attached. My friend, Iain, and I have decided to travel for a year together. We both have always wanted to but have never had the opportunity for various reasons, but we've decided that there is no time like the present! We have begun designing products to sell in order to fund our year-long adventure starting in England (where Iain lives), traveling all through Europe, sailing across the Mediterranean, and traveling southeast through India, China, Japan and finally New Zealand. One of our fund raising endeavors is to create a deck of playing cards to sell throughout our travels and via our online store. We imagine a deck that is both unique and stylized, featuring a variety of artists with a range of styles and a common theme of world travel and global community. Good luck and I look forward to seeing all of your beautiful art! Make sure to watch me for contest updates and check out our travel blog and site, Pack Your Frog, linked above.

Although the copypasted note I got sent, asking me to enter seemed a little.. awkward (no offence!), I think this is absolutely awesome idea. I will try to do a couple of designs to fill the blanks.

So tempted to join, and I just watched the new Bicycle cards for the Name of the Wind kickstarter happen so I'm super tempted. Just wondering if there are any slots for a Joker card? Or would I just stick with the regular set?

bamm9 In reply to darkair [2013-07-26 00:38:02 +0000 UTC]

no just the regular set, but you can do a design without a suit/number if you would like and it will be assigned one if chosen at the end of the contest 

i hope you do join c: also promote the contest in a journal to be entered into the raffle giveaway
