The artists who created the individual motifs on the playing cards were Chrissy Musgrave and Palmer Lee Cheu, members of the Laura Rangers and traditional owners for Kuku Warra, Kuku Thaypan and Kuku Possum lands in southeast Cape York Peninsula. The style of the motifs designs are drawn from local Quinkan style of rock art, which can be found painted in the 1000s of sandstone rockshelters around the township of Laura.
