October is the month for my favorite convention, ZebraCon in the western suburbs of Chicago.

For 2001, I created a calendar for one of my dearest fandoms, Stargate SG-1.

But by 2003 I had a new darling :^) So this year, I wanted to create something special for my beloved Magnificent Seven.

This page displays the major part of the result--a set of Magnificent Seven Playing Cards.

These are the jokers, face cards and aces. The pip cards were created by cutting tiny little faces of the Seven out in the shapes of the four suits. They were pretty cute LOL!

Here are my thoughts about the assignment of the aces and face cards:

Ace of Spades		Ezra, of course. This is his card.
Ace of Clubs		The only other black ace has to go to the Man in Black, Chris.
Ace of Hearts		Who could possibly get this one but good ol' Buck?
Ace of Diamonds		This one is for our delicious Diamond in the Rough, Vin.
King of Spades		Orin Travis gets the only ace or king not given to one of the Seven.
King of Clubs		JD, that Chris acolyte, gets this one.
King of Hearts		Another obvious choice--Nathan is the King of Hearts
King of Diamonds		Josiah, who is in his way a rather rough-around-the-edges gem, gets this one.
Queen of Spades		This is for Mary, for her connection to Travis.
Queen of Clubs		JD's charmer, Casey, is our Queen of Clubs
Queen of Hearts		Who else but Nathan's lovely Rain?
Queen of Diamonds		Vin's Nettie gets this one.
Joker		Ah, nobody came close. One performance earns this card for Ezra.
Joker		Vin, for his ATF-born penchant for practical jokes, earns the second joker.
Jacks		Ah, serendipity. I didn't know what to do with the Jacks, so I decided I'd use nice western scenery. Then I noticed what a nice collection of pretty horsey shots I had. I think these are the prettiest cards in the deck.

Below are the faces of these cards. Enjoy :^)
