Vintage folded paper card fortune game in Watercolour

I made this nostalgic paper card game for a friend’s birthday. I recall making these as a child with friends; it was always such fun. In Europe, particularly during the Victorian era (1837-1901), paper crafts and games became popular. Children and young adults often made their own toys and games from paper, including folded paper fortune-telling devices. These were often used at social gatherings and parties.

About me

I can never for the life of me write these “about me” sections… I love myths because they distill truths too big for us to comprehend into eternal tales. Oh, and I’m in my 30s, love painting, and reading…

I hand paint and hand make everything on my website. It ships from my little home in Victoria, Australia, via the good ol’ stamped snail mail (which is actually rather fast nowadays).
