Hi Everyone, On Black Friday (Nov 24th) we are hosting a 25% off everything sale on our new site (https://talkingpointcards.com), AND releasing 2 new decks! The first is a super detailed, literary-inspired work by the talented Peter Voth: PP 1 (Large).JPG PP 3 (Large).JPG The second is a truly beau...

Hi Everyone, Elephant Playing Cards will be having a 25% off everything Holiday sale between Friday 24th and Thursday 30th over at our new site: Talking Point Cards . It includes all of our most popular previous decks (Including the Christmas deck!), AND we will be releasing 2 new decks which is pr...

Custom playing cards as a product are generally in decline (looming recession, cost of living, increased material cost, new decks launching every week , etc…). I find it somewhat hard to equate the two parts in orange. Or is this like Ellusionist saying 'Decks are Dead' - as in the too many supplie...

Hi Everyone, It has been a while since my last post (a few years?!), and you will soon see why. I wanted to share an announcement that is going out to the Elephant Playing Cards list soon - sort of a 'first look' and an opportunity to clear any questions on the forum (if any). Elephant Playing Cards...

My 2 cents as someone who watches the card market closely - T11 very recently spoiled a Pirates deck with #soon. It has not been their style to release 2 new projects at once, so I assume they saw JR release date, realised they could be beaten to the punch and switched out the product to go in the l...

I feel like writing this post to tell the stories of all the characters and the chapters in the Bible to understand the artworks on this deck. Wow, that was an incredible contribution, thank you so much for that! (In case anyone was wondering, I didn't ask @laitostarr777 to do that!) You have reall...

... I think Ben is a great guy, and he has built up a lot of good will with how he runs his business and his design sensibilities. I have loved many of his projects in the past, and I sincerely want his company to continue to be around for years to come, assembling creative and fun decks of cards. ...

Aaand we're live.

and funded!

Thanks for reminding me!

Hey Everyone, The Alpha & Omega: Bible Edition Kickstarter project is going LIVE tomorrow: 7am PST / 10am EST / Thursday 2am Sydney - 4 Decks in unique wood-cut style illustrations - Super detailed, faithful illustrations - The same gorgeous box as the first project - Thousands of past customers...

Is there any chance that backers of the first campaign will get their gilded decks before the next campaign launches, or at least before it ends? Yes, I am working on the gilded decks at the moment - each day another dozen or so get done. I expect that I will be able to start shipping them out in l...

Hi Everyone, In a few weeks we are launching the 2nd set of Alpha & Omega cards: Bible Edition! Hero 2 (Large).jpg These are 4 decks full of original illustrations of characters and scenes from the Bible: - Creation (the book of Genesis) - Law (the rest of the Old Testament) - Gospel (The Gospel...

isnt there an issue with Mosaic being used by Elephant Cards? In this case, I don't think so. It appears my team reached out to these project creators with our standard IP notice because the name matched without consulting me. Once I found out I got in touch with purelyidea and confirmed the name w...

FYI the title of that page is from the Circuit cards page :ugthink: Thanks, had a few issues with the tech side of this web page, hopefully ironed them all out now. Just curious: who is the printer/manufacturer? WJPC. I was hoping to print with USPCC, but a bunch of factors (most notable production...

Aaand it's live on the website, check them out!

Hi Everyone, I always get excited when announcing our newest deck, but this one has been well over a year in the works and I can hardly express how excited I am to put it out there. At a time where everyone is slapping price-increasing taglines like "new", "never seen before", &q...

Full images + videos for all 6 cuts are up on our IG page: https://www.instagram.com/elephantplayingcards/

Check them out, and vote for your favorite!

This is a big reason why I wish P52 were so much more than it is. It ought to be and needs to be the Discogs or MusicBrainz of playing card info Unfortunately that level of data aggregation is only justified when professional marketers move into a niche, and there are almost no real marketers in th...

It's finally time: DECK CUT CHALLENGE! I have recieved the final submissions from 6 awesome deck cutters and now we will have 2 weeks of public voting to see who will be crowned the 'Deck Cutting Champion'! I will be posting more pictures / videos of each submission this week so don't feel like you ...

I'm glad you like it, and though while it was the final deck in this series it was never meant to be an entry point deck like the others. Given the cost of Cartamundi's double sided cold foil, the full suite of features and the display box, we couldn't have done it for much less while still offering...

I'm surprised there is such pushback about different CA shipping rates to the US. The decks are warehoused in the US, shipping will occur from the US, and Canada is international. Pretty simple. Not many people want to go through the headache of personally fulfilling their local orders when they cou...

Hey Everyone, To celebrate a milestone in our Cyberpunk Playing Cards (release of our 7th and final Cyberpunk version and printing of our 100,000th Cyberpunk Deck), we are sponsoring a deck cutting contest! Deck Cut Anouncement-min.jpg We are giving 6 of the top deck cutting artists all 7 Cyberpunk ...

Hey Everyone, We just passed 900% Funding, which unlocked the last stretch goal - gilded decks with hand-pressed real gold wax seals. Pretty cool :) Here's a full list of awesome upgrades that these decks have now! Campaign Upgrade.jpg If you want to pick up a deck or two before the campaign ends, n...

Hi Everyone, We have just passed 500% Funded, which unlocked the foil interior box print (the stretch goal I was most looking forward to!) To celebrate, I have organized a giveaway with Intricuts for a 1-of-a-kind Reformation cut deck: Cut deck 4.3 (Large).jpg Super simple to enter to win: just go t...

I shared this on my Facebook which has tons of friends in the ministry/church community and seminary education in Taiwan, and a good number is getting into groups to get bricks as far as I know. Hopefully more will be backing these, and a lot of them are first-timers using crowdfunding platforms an...

Got a full brick for these, first time in my collecting career. These are so well design and depicted it would be MAD STOOPID not to pick them up and use them as teaching tools/aids for seminaries and church groups! I'm going to use this in marketing forever. "MAD STOOPID"... Genius... In...

Alpha & Omega Playing Cards are now LIVE! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fATiFAE6nkc Come grab an Earlybird reward while they are still here! - 3 Decks - Early Church // Reformation // Great Awakening - Hand-illustrated woodcut design - Metallic golds inks throughout - Embossed gold tuckbox - ...

Last teaser before the launch on the 30th! The 3rd deck in the Alpha & Omega series: GREAT AWAKENING The Great Awakening (or the first among three evangelical revivals) swept through Britain, Europe and North America in the 1700's, giving birth to the strong traditions of Anglicanism, Methodism ...

This might be your best deck(s). Thanks! If you're using really shiny metallic gold inks, that will go a long way toward making these evoke the styles of iconography I've seen done well by others. As shiny as USPCC can do, I guess. I was a bit on the fence before with the empty-looking tuck, but th...

Absolute YES for me as a theology student, and you've got the three periods correct. Hopefully the three decks have different courts and backs! Awesome! As an MDiv, I certainly hope I got them right! And yes, courts are specific to each deck, 1 deck per period. Same style of back, but different ele...
