My tarot

I slowly work on making my own tarot deck.  I don't project to publish it.  There are few cards made.  I don't work much on.  There are a few cards that I have a picture clear idea.  I pretty much made all those cards.  I still work much mentally to determine what I want on my card.  It is still a slow work in progress.

Not long ago, I got an idea for the court cards.  I thought to have a theme for each suit of the court cards. Here what I thought:
Swords: coniferous
Water: flowers
Wands: leafy trees
earth: vines, roots, grass/lawn
I think I need to think a bit more for details because I want an item from each category to fit with each court card.  I want to have some logic to it.  On another hand, I like the idea to link flora with court cards.

At the beginning, I made a photomontage for my first card.  After that, I wasn't sure if I wanted to do all the cards that way.  Now, I think that if there is a need, I may mix a few cards together to make one card.  I do not want to do the whole deck that way.  Most of the card will be as is.  I think I will takes more notes for this project.
