Comment: This tarot card is BEAUTIFUL. I love the colors and the birds (crows? ravens?). It makes for a dreary mood, which I think is rather fitting. Just...I am in awe, I want an entire deck made by you! Hope to swap again with you! <3

Comment: Thank you for the beautiful ATC! The lady seems hard to love, but surely worth it. ;-) Gorgeous art, love the grey streaked hair and fabric patterns on their clothing--everything in fact! Thanks for the neat tea postcard and stickers too. <3

Comment: I love the lion sipping out of the scales of justice. Very awesome. I forgot about the fact that justice and strength are reversed in the older decks. I like your combination.

Comment: I'm not sure your ATC belongs in my album because it belongs in an art museum! It is gorgeous and you are an amazing painter. Thank you so much for all the work that went into this ATC. I am very proud to have it. C'est fantastique!

ik heb naar je website gekeken en wat moet het heerlijk zijn om zulke mooie illustraties te kunnen maken :-) Ik vind vooral de postzegels super!
camelsamba on Aug 3, 2009:

Hi Capucine, while waiting for your ATC I requested some of your books from my library - but your ATC arrived before one of the books was available! I did manage to get Come to Tea and the illustrations are so cheerful and whimsical. I'm glad to possess a few little pieces of your work for my very own!
