Day 5/10: Altered playing cards




My cards are from a "Spanish deck". It means that instead of clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades, there are swords, coins, cups and wands -just like in the Minor Arcana cards in Tarot deck. Anyway, half of the cards were missing, so I gave these two princes a chance to become altered art. It sounds nobel enough.

I cut the cards' edges with wavy scissors, so now they measure roughly 9 x 5,7cm. A bit more narrow than the ATC size. Characters are cut piece by piece and then attached with brads on the back sides of other cards. Oh, and I also gave these guys royal names, nothing less.
