Guys and Dolls Poker Deck, Published!

A custom deck of cards created for the Snowline Players production of Guys and Dolls
Snowline Players Guys and Dolls poker deck!
This deck of cards was created for the Snowline Players 2014 production of Guys and Dolls!  My original idea was to publish about 30 decks of cards so that I could give them out as gifts for the show.  But something cropped up that I just couldn't get around.  Cost.  Printing these cards doesn't cost a fortune, but 30 decks add up quickly.  So I scaled back the idea and just made 3 decks.  One for our director (of course.  I want to be in future Snowline plays after all), one for my babe and one to use as gift tags for my other idea...
The Big Jule Dice Bag.
 
Big Jule's "Lucky" Dice
Now I'm not going to be modest here.  The dice bag idea worked out fantastically and I thought the idea was pretty awesome.  Blank dice!  I mean, that's hard to top!  But still, it would have been so cool to have been able to give full card decks to the crew.  Especially when they worked so hard.  With that in mind, I've gone ahead and flagged the deck for sale at the Game Crafter.  This means that if you would like to purchase a deck of cards for yourself, you can visit this page and get as many as you want.  I will donate all profits to the Snowline Players because I want to be sure they make more plays in the future as well!
One tip.  I recommend that if there is any chance at all that you will want more than one deck that you buy them all at once.  For example, if you think that you might want to give out three decks for family members, than buy them all at once.  I've noticed that shipping takes a bite, but only for the first deck.  If you buy multiple decks then you save a lot on shipping charges.
When did shipping costs suddenly go through the roof?  OK, I'll save that complaining for another post.
