Leaf Playing Cards - Now Available *NO KICKSTARTER*
So just wanted to share more information about me and this project I was working on the past year
First of all altough not a part of this forum's community, I have been into cards for many years, before fontaines even came out.
I was always into minimal back design style along with the right eye-catching coloring, but I also enjoy discovering new details on customized face cards, so I wanted to create a deck I would love to own myself!
I was planning on starting a kickstarter, but unfortunately due to techincal limitations I was not able to, I decided to invest - and funded the project from my own pocket, I only got a very partially funding by wholeselling to magic sellers... but I was thankful I had the opportunity to get my deck out there.
So yeah - the deck is available in alot of magic sellers such as: Penguin magic, murphy's magic, vanishing magic, magic corner, trip on magic, magicshop and alot more, cant list em all here
I was also working to create my own unique web store - https://leafcards.store
so you if you like the deck, you can get it from magic sellers as I already mentioned, BUT - you can purchase it directly from me, why buy from me?:
- Cheaper price
- quantity discount - buy more pay less
- I did my best to get the best shipping rates I can get
- this way you support me the most
- exclusive coupons for email subscribers
Webstore - https://leafcards.store
Instagram - Leaf Playing Cards - Instagram
feedback is also welcome, Thanks!

Good on you for venturing out and funding your own deck! You design it in a vacuum and get it printed, and now you're releasing it out to the world to hopefully a warm welcome! I wish you well. Was it a 1,000 deck run? I just placed my order for 1!
FYI, there's a typo on the "Quantity Discount" button.

Heads up Tal, it looks like your webhost may be down intermittently due to rising traffic on the server. I hope you can get setup to sell decks directly.
I peeked and I do see that Penguin has the decks listed via Murphys for less and withfree shipping, which is hard for small retailers like yourself to match. Again, best of luck!

I have made some changes which took some memory, refresh the page and it should be ok... I am aware of penguin magic price, It is a temporary discount and I am in contact with them its ok as long as the decks sells I am happy

Nice concept and best of success with your deck. Just a heads-up but maybe you should rethink the picture in your signature here. You catch attention with that, no doubt, but I personally learn to hate stuff I see allover the place pretty quick.

Re: Leaf Playing Cards - some new photography
I sent a PM about this before I saw this thread. Didn't mean to "pile on" lol.
Just for posterity: We haven't had very strict guidelines on signatures (or if we do, we haven't had a reason to enforce them much), but due to the nature of this forum having lots of pictures posted, a banner-style signature picture would absolutely look much better. We can have a discussion on what should and shouldn't be allowed if people want to, but that's for another thread in another forum.
Back on topic: It's a clean design in the same vein as OPC's fruit decks. Not for me, but my collection criteria have become super narrow

I don't think we've seen some decent pictures of the court cards and number cards posted in this thread yet. These are both from the creator's Instagram.
