Altered Playing Cards


These are 3 altered playing cards I made for a swap - the first time I used playing cards - different for me -- fun though!

About Me

My photo
basia
Retired Art Therapist. Enjoying life as much as possible--trying to focus, but distracted by so many things--currently somewhat of a diletante and in a state of just "being". I enjoy working in my studio at home -- creating art: painting, mixed media, atc's, and other artistic pursuits! I am a button collector and love poking around second hand stores for vintage clothing and items. I read tarot cards and am a long time student of astrology. I enjoy being a member of on-line art groups and have made new friends in many places. Welcome to my blog, where I take pleasure in sharing "pieces of me" with you.
