Unicorn Playing Cards by Vanda

Unread post by davegk »

Hey all,

I'm excited to announce the official launch of a deck that's been in the works for a long time: Unicorn Playing Cards! https://vandacards.com/products/unicorn

Unicorn Playing Cards feature a bright rainbow color palette and, of course, unicorns! Designed for cardistry, the back border features a 360 degree rainbow stripe which produces 4 different fan colors. The court cards showcase a unique larger-than-life full-bleed style and the pip layouts are also original and unique to this deck.

This deck was printed by USPC on Bicycle stock with embossed finish. The tuckbox is unsealed allowing for easy access and no sticker residue.

And, to celebrate the launch, save 20% this weekend only with promo code UNICORN.

Picked one up. My daughter is going to lose her sh*t over these. Glad to see them go live and thanks for the heads-up!

I picked up 4 of these. Love the use of colors! Only thing I didn't like were the court designs, but eh... the back colorful design trumped the back design!

But do you even fan, bro? 😂
Okay, okay, I'll stop now. I just love that part of your reviews 😅.

Really like the art design on the tuck. Deck is borderline for me, might've picked one up if embossing and/or foiling on box.

Honestly if these didn't have the unicorn theme and just focused on the colors, this would be one of my favorites :D

the tuck, while kind of plain, looks neat though.

lol. it happens sometimes.

i tried a few times voicing my opinion on the cards and design, but... it's not working out. maybe i can just say i wouldn't buy this kind of design.
