There is something playful to her. Perhaps as she won't take crap, she's laughing at life... :DInner Whispershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04577110987784585986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4948441046758510841.post-75422496212653397542015-07-11T14:27:09.552-04:002015-07-11T14:27:09.552-04:00I think this is why so many people don't like ...I think this is why so many people don't like this Queen - she believes in tough love and has such a good BS detector, lol.

Wow, what a very deep thought. I will be thinking on this all day now, just as I was singing, "blinded by the light," all day from the post before this! LOL - thanks for that. ;)Bridgett Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04605351271399300664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4948441046758510841.post-14272653049688647002015-07-11T08:06:14.535-04:002015-07-11T08:06:14.535-04:00No, that was my one disappointment with them.

Because the Deva cards had such bolder colors, I ended up cropping the borders and enlarging the Fountain images (which has a more muted color tone) so it wouldn't look so faded in comparison. I've had fun watching you use the DoC this week; they seem to pair well no matter what tarot deck is used with them! :) thesycamoretreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15182019323050600440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4948441046758510841.post-35230986172229469702015-07-11T02:16:05.126-04:002015-07-11T02:16:05.126-04:00Is the Fountain Tarot that much bigger than the De...Is the Fountain Tarot that much bigger than the Devas? They must be huge! Love to see a photograph of them in your hands.

She can be harsh and her truth can be painful but she is also a mother who will give you a band-aid when it bleeds. <br />Again these two cards fit perfectly together and this really amazes meEllenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02617686222764658629noreply@blogger.com
