Everything you need to know about creating your own card deck
Whether it’s an oracle, tarot or inspirational card deck, this Ecourse covers how you can go about conceiving, creating, designing, printing, packaging, self-publishing, selling and marketing your deck.
No matter which phase you are currently in with birthing your deck, you can find out what the best next step is for you. This course will dive into everything you’ve wanted to ask.
Some of the challenges you may be facing:

• You have the artwork but you’re stuck on how or where to get your deck printed
• You’re not sure whether to self-publish or find a publisher

Testimonials

When I first set out on my journey to create my own oracle deck, I had a vague idea of where to start. And then I came across Jo Klima’s Oracle Creator Course. To say I was blown away by the amount of information I didn’t know I needed would be the understatement of the century. Jo shared not just a clear breakdown of the steps to help you along the path but options for multiple avenues to take depending on your own vision for your deck. This is not a cookie-cutter guide to create a deck. This is a course to learn and decide what your deck is and bring it to life. If you are going to take one course, this I promise is it.

I have been a fan of both Jo’s stunning artwork and her Inner Star Oracle deck for sometime now. She has an amazing skill set – paired with a sensitive and intuitive nature. I have always dreamed of creating my own oracle deck, so when I saw Jo was offering the Oracle Creator course, it was just what I needed to make my dream a reality. After completing the first module, I knew I had made the right decision. Jo’s course is beautifully delivered and full to the brim with inspiration, guidance and all the technical know-how you need to create your own deck – even if you don’t have much art or design experience. If you have felt a wish to bring a deck into the world – Jo will show you the way.
