Today I'm sharing a (half) set of tarot-inspired zodiac cards using the Spellbinders February 2026 release Block Print Zodiacs Collection. (Affiliate links are used throughout at no additional cost to you. Any small commission I make goes toward my craft fund so I can continue to create and share with all of you. xx).
Scroll to the bottom for a complete list of products used. I was inspired by tarot cards and sought to create a deck using the 6 press and foil plates I have. You'll have to let me know if I succeeded. xx
The foil struggled to fully adhere to my navy shimmer paper (with lengthened heating time and multiple passes in die cutting machine for pressure). BUT, I really love the rustic look it lends my zodiac tarot cards.
I used two different colors of foil - Polished Brass for the star sign itself and Copper for the zodiac name and dates.
For the back of each tarot card, I pressed the Deluxe Deck Press Plates from Jaycee Gaspar BP-241 in gold pigment ink. For the fronts, I used my new favorite stencil, Star Bright Stencil STN-002, for the background then splattered with black for added interest.
So, what do you think? Did I succeeded in making them look like tarot cards?
