Omg 🥰 love it. Amazing. I will never have that patience. Have the Crystal Vision & Druid craft tarot. I have trimmed & edged the Crystal Vision. You are very talented & very patient & determined. Love watching your videos

Dawn Michelle....you may think all you are doing is a mod video....let me thank you for offering me something enjoyable to watch like I'm eating my lunch. You are really saving my sanity. I can't tell you how happy I was to see a new video from you!

@DawnMichelleTarot 3 года назад

Aw I am so glad to hear that! 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

@stickynotegirl7 3 года назад

Love the way how you trimmed and edged your decks. You brought life to it. I’m impressed with how you rebacked your decks as well. I’m too scare to trim or edge my deck.

@DawnMichelleTarot 3 года назад

You can always get yourself a practice deck to try it on if you want to play with it! 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

@takoholic 3 года назад

I love how beautiful your deck edges look! ❤️

@DawnMichelleTarot 3 года назад

Thank you so much, I really enjoy doing it. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

I love this as I have quite a few decks which are so big and i cant hold them. This so informative thank you for all you hard work and helping others god bless you Michelle 🌻🌻❤❤🧡🧡💐🙏

@DawnMichelleTarot 3 года назад

I am so glad you found it helpful! I still have some oversized decks in need of trimming too. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

@francesrobinson1335 3 года назад

Hi! I just discovered your channel. I just received the Ghetto Tarot and they're pretty big. Never thought I'd want to modify a deck, but I do with this one. Your vid is very welcome and I feel confident that I can proceed. I also have a couple of other decks on the way that may require modification. Anyway, thanks. I am now subscribed.

@DawnMichelleTarot 3 года назад

I am so glad you enjoy my content and thank you so much for subscribing! That is so great that you are going to be embarking on your deck mod journey, I wish you much luck with it. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

@annelyle5474 3 года назад

That was really useful - thanks! I'm thinking that Faber-Castell Pitt brush pens might work well, as they're filled with indian ink which is waterproof once dry (and you can reverse the brush tip, using a pair of tweezers, when it wears out). They're a bit on the pricey side compared to Crayolas, but you can buy them individually from an art supply store and they come in a lot of colours

Thanks so much for all your mod vids, they are all so great and helpful! Love them!! I have a question about ink transfer to your hands, I know you mentioned in a video the product you use if you are getting ink transfer from edging with a marker, I can't remember what it was, LOL. I'm getting some ink transfer on a couple of decks that I've edged in markers, what is the stuff you sometimes use to seal in the ink again? Thank you ❤

@DawnMichelleTarot Год назад

I am so glad you enjoy them! Generally I only find transfer with markers and I will often overlay some archival ink stamp over the top to help stop the transfer. If it's really bad, like a dark blue tends to be, I have used mod podge to seal the edges. It's a bit messy but it gives them a cool gilded effect in the end. I hope that helps!

@stefanymathias1 Год назад

@@DawnMichelleTarot Thanks for getting back to me! I will try those if more time drying doesn't do the trick :)

@CommonHawthorn 3 года назад

Thank you! I usually use markers because (so far, knock on wood) I haven't had trouble with bleeding, while ink pads seem (in my hands) to require wiping with a paper towel, except for the distressed inks pads. You specify water-based markers. Have you found that alcohol-based markers don't work well? I have yet to back a deck, but I've done some trials, and I just couldn't find contac paper that isn't repositionable (which blows my mind, because I remember how *impossible* it was to take it off anything forty to fifty years ago). I've tried several vinyl products intended for use in vinyl sticker-cutters, and I think they will be my first choice.

@DawnMichelleTarot 3 года назад

I haven't really used alcohol based markers much, but that's mostly because they give me a headache. I think other people have used them very successfully. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

@SH-dy4ww 2 года назад

Thanks for the suggestions! Have you ever done the Modern Witch Tarot? I'm nervous to do it since it's soooo thick!

@DawnMichelleTarot 2 года назад

I haven't as I don't own that deck. I've heard the cardstock is a bit ridiculous, but I imagine with a good trimmer it could be modded. Thank you for watching. ❤️

@maureenz1135 3 года назад

For that kind of trimmer, I think as long as the cards are aligned to the edge of the bottom blade, it should be fine~

@DawnMichelleTarot 3 года назад

Good to know! 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

@myblondiesnova 3 года назад

Do you remember the number on the mildliner you used for your Llewellyn? 😊It looks so nice.

@DawnMichelleTarot 3 года назад

I don't think they have numbers but I think it's the one they call gold. If you go to my deck mod tool videos there is probably a link for it in the description box. I think I also have links on my website. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

@dragorsi 3 года назад

Have you tried spray paint for "backing"? Kelly from the Truth in Story mentioned it in one of her lives that she uses that and I'm intrigued since then.

@DawnMichelleTarot 3 года назад

I heard her mention that one her decks (I want to say the Halloween Oracle) was covered with black spray paint on the back. I've never tried it, but judging by my work with spray clear coat, I'd probably make a huge mess of it lol. It's an interesting idea tho, probably way easier! 🙂

@straycat4427 3 года назад

Is the Universal Wirth tarot you showed the Lo Scarabeo version? thanks!

@DawnMichelleTarot 3 года назад

I believe it is yes. It's a pretty cool one. 🙂

@SunTurtle 3 года назад

I know I'm way late with my comment -- thank you for this video! I've always enjoyed watching your mod videos even though I haven't done any modding yet myself. :) I did have a question (that isn't about modding, funny how that goes): could you tell me what the deck at 23:09 is? The one that seems to have black and white illustrations. Very intrigued by it. Thank you!

@DawnMichelleTarot 3 года назад

It is the one in the middle that I edged in gold? If so, that one is the Illuminated Earth oracle. Let me know if that was the one! So glad you enjoyed the video. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️

@SunTurtle 3 года назад

@@DawnMichelleTarot Yes! That's the one. Thank you! I looked it up and it's mega colorful! I must have confused you so much when I said it had black and white illustrations, haha. It's just that the particular card that was at the bottom (which I could only see a bit when you turned the deck) seemed to be black and white. I'm looking at pics of the deck and wow, that deck is stunning. The colors and textures!

@DawnMichelleTarot 3 года назад

I figured that's what you meant because when I looked at the video, I saw the one kind of muted card was flipped up. It is a stunning deck, beautiful artwork and we'll balanced. I do recommend it! 🙂

@Tdiva-Elly 3 года назад

You keep referring to ink pads as ‘Stamps’ but stamps are actually the items you use ink pads on to make an impression with the stamps on paper or other items.

@DawnMichelleTarot 3 года назад

That is very true! They are technically ink pads, but we used to call them stamp ink pads and I guess the stamp part stuck for me. Old habits and all. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
