New Agate Playing Cards are In Stock

I decided to design and have printed Lake Superior agate playing cards. The shipment arrived yesterday. They are casino-quality 2.5 ×3.5 inches (63.5mm×89mm) with two jokers. The selling price for now is $8.00. I will see how they sell and maybe print a larger quantity next time to get the cost down a little more. I have designed them to allow you to learn about agates while playing cards. The four suits are: agate specimens, agate structures, agate hunting tips, and agate detail. I haven't figured out shipping cost yet, but I am guessing it will be around $2.50. If you are interested in purchasing a deck, please send me an email to karen@agatelady.com.  The last four images below show a close up of four of the card centers.

I am finishing making mineral art for the Ishpeming show tomorrow.  I'll be leaving later today, so I won't be able to post a blog update until Monday morning.  Have a great weekend everyone!
