Owl Mystic Playing Cards

Owl Mystic Playing Cards is an illustrated Kickstarter. project by aboutcardistry celebrating traditional pen-and-ink craftsmanship. Created in collaboration with illustrator Xiaohongshu, every card has been meticulously hand-drawn, with intricate linework and detailed owl-inspired characters that embrace the warmth and personality of handmade art.

The deck is available in two editions: a regal Purple Edition with a classic aesthetic, and a nature-inspired Green Special Edition featuring a brighter colour palette. Both editions are presented in premium tuck boxes made from specialty coloured paper and finished with embossed foil, metallic inks, and UV printing.

The cards feature holographic finishes and metallic inks on both the faces and backs, highlighting the intricate illustrations while maintaining a vintage-inspired look.

During the campaign, backers can also opt for a limited Four-Deck Gift Box, limited to 300 sets worldwide. The premium pull-out box includes four decks: two with gilded edges... along with a signed art booklet showcasing the original black-and-white artwork.

Printed on 280gsm imported Japanese paper stock, each 56-card poker deck is limited to 1,888 standard editions and 888 special editions. Pledge starts at $10 on Kickstarter.
