Sedona AZ (February 2, 2015) – Ronni Ann Hall, local designer and author, has been regularly visiting the Oak Creek Canyon for the fourteen years she has lived in the Verde Valley, and it was there where her whimsical Healing Fairy Alphabet deck took form.
The I is for Indian Gardens card stars the blue heron that regularly visits there. It took five years to make the deck, as life intervened, and she ended up leaving the valley for Prescott, cutting short her visits. When she returned to the area several years later after a couple of rough years away, and especially after the recent fires that threatened the area, Hall was determined to finish it, and bring it into form to honor the place she loves so much. The published deck made its debut on her website in October of 2014 with each card representing a lesson learned to share.
The Healing Fairy Alphabet deck consists of 26 cards following the alphabet–each a whimsical illustration featuring Nature–and seven bonus cards of fairy-inspired dresses. The deck comes with five description cards to make giving a reading for self and others easy. Preorders sold quickly. Hall, who has an online business teaching Fairy and Empath Online School, has students from far and wide, so several decks went to Russia, Australia and the United Kingdom. Customers included therapists using the deck to help clients, and teachers using the deck for alternative nature curriculums.
Hall has been a designer and a teacher for over twenty years and loves to teach through her whimsical products. She taught book design and animal communication at the local Yavapai Community College for many years, and recently completed Graduate Certification training at Full Sail University in Education Technology and Media Design. She is a published illustrator with Bachelor’s and Associate’s degrees in Design and Fine Art. She is the author of Help! I’m Sensitive, and Word Swirls. Her goal is to teach through fun curriculum in many engaging forms and loves to create products that help animals and Nature.
The Healing Fairy Alphabet deck will be available in The Zona Gallery in Scottsdale, Arizona, and can also be purchased online on her website’s product page: http://www.thedesigningfairy.com. Decks sell for $29.95 retail.
