I've trimmed mine today! I left the green border for now. I used the guide like you do and it is very even! Better than expected! ❤
How wonderful, so glad it came out well for you! 💚
I just modded my first deck (last week) following this tutorial, pausing it when needed and doing everything step by step using exactly the same tools... and it turned out beautiful! Thank you so much for explaining it so well and in a manner that we can also replicate 💝💐🌿
How wonderful, I am so glad that it was helpful and that you had a great mod experience!! 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️
Hey, I took the plunge and trimmed my Druidcraft deck using the tools and method you recommended. It turned out better than I had hoped, and I'm very pleased with it.
Thank you for making the tutorials!
How wonderful, I am so glad to hear it worked out well for you! 🥰
I trimmed my Druid-Craft last year after watching one of your mod videos and have to say I was pleased with the results. Although, I wish I had your patience. Thank you for sharing. 😀😀💙
How fun! I think it's one of those decks that just looks so wonderful trimmed. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
Bonjour, this morning ,new expérience I trim the deck .. OMG listen to your video and to day is the day,, witch me luck (excuse my riding I,m Canadian French.
I trimmed my DCT without measuring a few years ago and have the same issue you have with it shuffling poorly. I said that I would never trim a deck again... but now I'm like, but wait, this looks gorgeous without borders. You've inspired me. :)
You can always give it a second trim using measurements and just taking a sliver off all the sides. I've done that with several decks to fix some of my wonky mods. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
Thank you for this video. Your mod videos have helped me tremendously. My original trim on Druid Craft ended up like your original trim. Then I used your measurement method to fix it by taking tiny amounts off - it squared up nicely without sacrificing the art. Same thing for my original trim on Llewellyn deck. I "saved" it by shaving off tiny bits and now it is almost perfect! I am now considering taking off the titles from Druid Craft... Your mod videos are SUPER! Thank you!
I am so glad you enjoyed it! I've saved a few decks by retrimming them as well. It's a great way to fix a wonky mod. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
I just wish you would also have shown us the bag for this deck. That would have been the topping to this cake of a video lol thank you for sharing. I love your craft videos the most.
Hehe I don't think I had a bag made for this verison yet when I trimmed it, but maybe I'll try to show it the next time I get this deck out on camera. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
Wow you are getting SO GOOD at trimming. Oh this deck. So many cards are so beautiful.
Hehe thanks, lots and lot of practice! It is a good deck, solid reader. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
You will LOVE the guidebook!!! One of my favorites!!!
That's so great to hear, I can't wait to dive into it! 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
Your mod videos are helping me to get closer to being brave enough (or let’s be honest, motivated enough, since I’m lazy) to try trimming one of my decks. I recently picked up the Gaian Tarot, and those huge cards with double borders are ridiculous. Love the look of Druid Craft with just the art-after I’m done with Lisa’s training course and more familiar with the cards, it might be fun to mod it and work with a deck without any titles.
Thanks as always. And I love that your beloved Llewelyn makes it’s way one way or another into your videos. ❤️🤣
Hehe it does like to pop in there doesn't it? I think that would be a fantastic idea once you are done with Lisa's amazing course. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
love how you have painted it would LCVE a video on that
Gorgeous ! Love your Mode With Me videos. Many thanks !🧡❤️🧡❤️🧡
I am so glad you enjoy them! I really love the way this one turned out and I'm even enjoying working with it (even if the cardstock isn't the same as my old favorite hehe) 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
This is one I wanted to see. I have three copies of this deck. One is going to get trimmed. And yes big book is very good. My original was big book but first edition with good card stock. There is a definite difference.
I've heard that there's difference between alot of the editions and the different publishers. I'm getting used to the new version even though it still doesn't feel quite the same.
🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
Thank you so much for all the tips. I am currently modifying my deck for the very first time and your videos are such a great help. Super excited to see the completed work. :)
How wonderful, I do hope you enjoy your deck mod experience and I'm so glad you have found the video helpful. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
I didn’t realize rounding corners is the “good mother” my inner child always needed
Wow, this deck just looks so much better with no borders or names. I have the old version with the little book also. I have thought many times about getting the big book also. I love the colors you chose for both decks, and wowza what a difference measuring them out makes. I don't measure mine out and you can sure see the difference. I loved this. Thank you for sharing.
It seems like a pain to do the measurements, but actually creating that little guide makes it go so much faster for me. 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️
What a weird coincidence! The very evening this appeared on my list, I was watching a different video as background noise...while I trimmed *my* new copy of the Druidcraft Tarot! (My old one was the very first deck I ever trimmed, and I didn't do a very good job of it, so I decided I'd try it again now that I've learned better technique.) Now I'll watch this while I edge it. Synchronicity!
How wonderful, I love it when that happens! 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
Thank you so much for this video! Just purchased this deck and have been going back and fourth on wether to trim or not! Love how yours turned out. I have to agree on the card stock, the fingerprints drive me nuts!!!
Yeah the fingerprints are pretty annoying, but I really enjoy it trimmed. 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️
I’ve never trimmed a deck before, but am considering trimming this one. It looks so good borderless.
I highly recommend it, I think this one is a perfect candidate for trimming. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
I really appreciate your videos boho very inspiring and helpful 🥰👌 I want to trim and mod my 3 decks
I am so glad you enjoy them! 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
Looks great - I love that green edging! I really need to trim mine so I can work with it - the cards are way too big for my hands, even bigger than a standard oracle.
One thing I'll add is that there's a Fool's Dog app for this deck which includes a digital version of the big guidebook. Not only can you use it to do readings on-the-go (including custom spreads taken from the guidebook), you can screenshot individual cards (with titles) to use in your journal without the bother of a scanner. Excellent value for only a few quid/dollars 😀
Ooh I didn't think about that, I have their apps for some of my other decks. They are really wonderful. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
So I like it with the titles and… square corners. Idk I guess I’ve been looking at a lot of videos of TdMs with square corners
wouldn't it be amazing if they just released a big borderless version of this deck? I keep hoping they will do that every time they come out with a new edition.
You'd think that with as often as people trim it they'd get the hint hehe. But I agree, a borderless verison would be awesome. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
I always enjoy watching your mod videos. Thanks Dawn Michelle!
I am so glad you enjoy them! 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
I'm interested in checking out the different editions. I have found a 2021 and a 2022 edition. I don't know what the difference is
Hi! I love your channel so much! I'm about to start learning how to edge decks and was wondering in terms of the distress pads is it better to edge with the distress inks or the distress oxides? Thank you so much!
I don't think I have ever used the oxide inks on my decks, only the regular ink pads. It's my understanding that the oxide inks are meant for easier blending so they take longer to try and I think are more opaque. I'm not sure how that would work in terms of coverage for a deck edge. It's probably not something I would use if that helps lol.
🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️
@@DawnMichelleTarot thank you so much! that helps a lot! :)
Thank you!
I wish the company would just realize the issue with this deck and print a smaller version without the wasted space on the borders
do you ever open a deck you're really excited about and the cards are huge and the cardstock is weird and you just have to wonder who thought this was a good idea?! it looks so nice borderless though!
All the time!! 🙂
I recently purchased this deck again for the exact same reason--to have the full guide book! I'm also in the process of trimming mine, but unfortunately I need to use scissors because I can't afford a proper guillotine. (I bought one for $18 on Amazon and it ruined my Anna K by shredding the edges... ugh.)
Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that! What kind of a trimmer was it? The only kind I've had go way wrong with a deck is the slide kind. It just tore my cards rather than cutting them. You can get a great trim with scissors too!
🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
@@DawnMichelleTarot That’s exactly what it was- the slide kind of guillotine. Garbage for cards!
For sure! It works great for paper but you need something with a bit more bite for cardstock.
What edition is your new deck? I'm sure it is the same as my new deck and big book set; it is being delivered tomorrow via Amazon. It will be the 2019 version from St Martin's Essentials, 03/19/2019, book 192 pages.
There is a new version on the U.S. Games website (sold out) and Wal-Mart. Amazon has it too. The publisher is Red Wing, 07/12/2021, 80 page book.
I have the same edition you do. I haven't gotten to see the new edition, I'll have to keep an eye out to see how it looks. 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️
@@DawnMichelleTarot yes, I saw the video you posted after this one. There seems to be no videos about the 2021 edition. I was a bit nervous upon hearing of the new version, but newer isn't always better.
Thanks for making such good content. Someday soon I will be brave and mod a deck. A cheap crappy one to start, for sure. ~~Kitty
This deck is so special to me! I've been debating on whether or not I should trim the deck as it is massive... I kinda decided to leave it as it is, as I respect the original artist's intentions! I really loved seeing your modification though!
I can totally understand that! While I do like to personalize my decks when I can, there are some decks that feel just right as they are. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
What did you use for the metallic paint?
Yes, I also wanted to know the same
Just a basic acrylic craft paint, you can find them in any craft store (or places like Walmart.) I think if you click over to the video where I show the painting of a card you might get a glimpse at the bottles. I don't have any one particular brand or anything that I use. I hope that helps!
🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
I wish these were longer, omg they are asmr heaven, is it bad that sometimes when I want to drift off into a peaceful sleep.. these videos are so relaxing! 🤍… I’m new to tarot but you inspire me to mod my Field Tarot Deck, Have you moded that one or do you own it? I’d love ideas for that one.
I'm so glad you enjoy them! I had the indie edition of the Field Tarot but I never modded it. I'd probably remove the white borders but leave the titles. I hope that helps! Thank you for watching. ❤️
@@DawnMichelleTarot thank you so much for the advice I may just do that 🙏🤍 because yeah right now I’m having a very hard time connecting to her, she was unfortunately a love at first sight not thought type, and then I realized all the tarot study books required knowledge of the rws originalé lol.. so I began researching the various styles and types I liked of the rws that I could possible Stand or stomach was the Golden Art Nouveau RWS deck.. but there has been some others now that have caught my eye like the tarot of Delphi oh my 😍 but I haven’t received my Gant deck yet it comes on the 4th and I’ve vowed to myself I shall be faithful and stop gawking at other decks and really put effort into this relationship with Gant 🙏✨ lol i hope that doesn’t sound nuts 😂
To riffle shuffle an unevenly trimmed deck have you tried tapping both parts on the "head", that is separating into the halves and tapping them on the table with the side your thumb goes on pointing down? That way that side is smoother, and may give you a better shuffle.
I haven't, but I will for sure give that a try! 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️
Hi, thanks for this! Yes, the card stock is very glossy and thin... What year and which publisher is your first deck done by?
I just picked up the first St. Martin's Press edition 2004/2005 second hand with the 192 pg big book. Seems to have the more card board feeling card stock.
Might be a tricky trim though, not only is the white border not even side to side....but it's actually crooked/at a slant....any tips to fix that using that same paper trimmer? Or just going to have to cut extra off at the slant? If that makes sense....not going to try to hold every single card at the same angle to cut exactly along the white border....
Generally I just try to set my measurements so that it'll cut off that slant. You might lose a tiny bit more of the artwork on some of the cards, but that's the only way I really know to get them all even. Good luck with it! 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️
@@DawnMichelleTarot Thank you!! 💙💕
do you know who edited that particular deck? it has a green tint that I don't like and am trying to find one who is less green
As far as I know there are two editions of this deck currently. One by St. Martin's and one by Red Wheel. However, I'm unsure which one would have the coloration you are looking for.
Oh boy, I want this deck but now I really want the OLDER cardstock because I really don't like shiny cards. :\ No idea how to find an old one.
You can sometimes find them on the buy-sale-trade groups on Facebook or on eBay. That's about the only places I know to hunt for older editions. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
What publisher is the new deck?..I'm wondering if a different publisher has better quality like your old ones, not so glossy, slippery, fingerprinty etc.
The new big box one I have is St Martin's. I have heard different publishers use different stock, so it might be worth a look. 🙂 Thank you for watching. ❤️
@@DawnMichelleTarot Thank you! ❤
Dawn what edition is your project deck?
I’ve had several of them, but I think the first one I got was the smaller box one. Unfortunately I don’t have the original box or booklet for my first one anymore. I only kept the big book. Sorry I could be more help! 😊
Which type of tombows are these? Thanks!
The number of the tombow I used should be in the description box. I hope that helps! 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
Is it okay to use a scissor? I don't have any of those fancy tools 😅
Yep totally ok to use scissors! Lots of people do. 😊
💥💥💥💥❣️❣️❣️❣️👍👍👍👍❤️🔥❤️🔥
Again, a great mod. I also love cards without borders but the thing with borderless cards is that after some time shuffeling, the images start to get damaged on the edges. 🤔😔
That is very true, they do serve a purpose for all we sometimes like to poke fun of them. I don't mind a little fraying around the edges on my cards tho, gives them a aged feel. 🙂 Thank you for watching! ❤️
👏👏👏👏👏👍
