really beautiful artwork, almost like an illuminated manuscript, quite stunning and unique interpretations such as the Key.

I too love the use of different borders for each card, Amerigo Folchi did that for a number of his decks and yours are just as gorgeous if not more so in their own special way.

No disrespect intended towards the late Neil Lovell of Malpertuis Designs, but I find this particular Medieval inspired Lenormand far more compelling than his much touted "Silson Lenormand" which was voted as the 2015 Lenormand of year.

Thanks for all your nice words! It's really encouraging.

And I know what you mean Charlie Brown about the Letter card possibly being confused for the The Lady. I have to think about that. It was just hard to find a medieval depiction of a "letter". There are lots of "scroll" images but I didn't find those very satisfying so far.

I've had a chance to work on this. I'm getting pretty close to finished. I'm getting down to some of the harder ones to find interesting images for- The Anchor really has me stumped.

Here's a sneak peek at a couple more cards. (These all need to be gone over when I'm done and tweaked for consistency of different effects)
