So excited about this…I recently received a custom order for a full deck of Flower Cards, which is the Korean/Japanese card game i re-designed this last year. The original intent of my re-design was to print out playable cards, but I never got around to that part!
Since I had already done the designs for my woodblock prints, I just had to re-size and adjust some of them to fit into the 1.75” x 1.75” format. There are 48 different cards in the deck! I think they turned out beautifully, and I had them professionally printed (full color, offset) on 130# cover weight paper that is 100% recycled.
When I was a little girl, my Korean grandmother taught me how to play this game, and I had always admired the cards. In Korea the game is called “Hwa-tu” or “Go Stop” (in Japan, it is called “Hanafuda”).
