Here's a video of me using this same method to make a simple cut autograph card! ruclips.net/video/UtFGLIWaKxM/видео.htmlsi=iVe-FgTaP17VEIi0
So I have made my own custom cards for years but your template has been a game changer. Usually I just left the backs blank but now the sky is the limit. Thank you!!!!
This is great to hear! I hope you get the results you want!
Tried my first customs today. It was a little messy for a first timer, especially with the spray glue. I definitely recommend printing extra copies just in case. I think next time I might try using a glue stick instead. Overall, a pretty cool turnout once you get the hang of it
Awesome, congrats! It takes a little practice and I always print extras. Sometimes my cuts don't turn out quite like I want.
I always wondered about the process for making custom cards. Great tutorial. Thank you.
Smart idea with the prints if you only want a few customs, cheap, easy, fun to do. Great tutorial!!
Thanks for watching!
👍Great video, I've been doing them almost the same way besides putting a piece of paper in between them and doing the 2 cards back to back on seperate prints not folding them.
That might be something to consider. That probably makes them the same thickness as a standard card.
@@waxmuseumpodcast plus, I'm having a hard time lining up the front and the back. Other than that, great job!
@@laurasautographs if you print it on the right photo size and fold it over the edge of the poster board, it usually lines up. I've had a few that were off, but you can slide the sides around a little when the glue is still wet.
Thank you for this guide I’m planing on making custom basket ball cards for everyone on my team this is important information
No problem! Feel free to reach out to me on IG if you have any questions. A lot of it will be trial and error.
Thank you so much for this video! I'm only 13 but this guide is amazing for me to get WHL and NHL signatures so far I have gotten 9 autographs and 4 cut cards!
Wow awesome! Glad I could help!
Never thought to have prints printed out as photos as a photo store. Higher quality then what my home printer can do also cheaper when you factor in inks and special paper.
Sometimes they come out a little blurry, but like you said, way better quality than what I can do at home
That Tyrese Halliburton card looks legit and as good as anything the pros are making right now. Well done.
Thank you!
This is awesome. I have a collection where I have a player card of every player to play for my favorite team. But since some players only played a handful of games, no card exist for them. This would be great to fill in the gaps of players with no card. I can have a complete collection now. THANK YOU!!!
No problem! You also might check out my video about custom cut autos. That way, if you never get your player to sign in person, you can use an existing auto for them still!
Thank you for making this video. Very clear and easy to understand instructions. And I loved that it was for my hometown Pacers team!
Thanks for watching! Good luck with any customs you might make!
Such a timely video. A few hrs ago I was thinking about making custom cards with a jersey. Might have to use some kind of foam board with holes cut out to make the cards I was thinking of. Signed number piece as well as nameplate, logoman, laundry tag.
You might take one of the old decoy cards and adhere it between the photo pieces.
Great job! You made it look easy :) I am sure it will take me a lot of trial and errors but I look forward to that.
Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,
Julien
Takes a little practice, but you'll get the hang of it! Good luck!
Those cards are so cool
Thanks for this video I make custom cards all the time with this template now and I have mastered it. I owe it all to you ❤❤
Thank you! I hope you've been able to make them even better!
@@waxmuseumpodcast I’ve also been giving them as gifts to family members who love different sports and hobby’s and they’ve been a huge hit 😁
I need to learn how you designed the pictures in the 1st place I think.
@@willjay921 that all depends on what program you're using. I use Paint3D but a lot of people use Photoshop
Can you show us how you designed the pattern on the cards? Great video by the way.
That's something I will consider for a future video - thanks!
Thanks for the great tutorial. Are there any specific thickness of the poster board that you would recommend?
I just used the standard stuff that you might find in a multi pack at Walmart. Nothing fancy!
Manila file folders worked for me!
Very helpful video! Thank you
What size is the poster board? Great video!!!!
@@thegalaxysmark8271 I don't remember the exact dimensions but it's just the standard thickness. You can really use any size as long as it's standard. Sometimes I cut them down so they're a little easier to work with
Dude. Thanks so much for this video!!
Thank you for watching and have fun making your own cards!
Love these for personal use
It's come in very handy over the years
First off, thank you so much for posting this. I create my own custom cards on photoshop, however, it hasn’t always been easy for me to find local print shops to print them for me. I’m definitely trying this soon. My question is this. You said you print them in a 4x6 size. Does this mean they’re not the standard card size? Or do you have them printed 4x6 and then cut them to size?
I print the front/back template in the description on a 4x6. Then I fold it over/adhere it to posterboard. It cuts down to the size of a normal card. Shoot me a message on IG if you need more help. I'd be glad to help
@@waxmuseumpodcast awesome, thank you! Can’t wait to try it soon. Keep up the outstanding work 👍🏼
amazing video thank you very much but how you handled that custom made AND AUTOGRAPHED Haliburton card was bothering me xD
What is the first paper that you used for paint 3d? Thanks
I had these printed out at Walgreen's, so it was just their standard glossy photo paper.
Thanks
How would you suggest making a jersey card? Also, great vid thanks!
You just do what he did on one of those cards there.
A jersey would be a little more tricky. You would probably want to use a thicker stock in the middle and hollow part of it out. I've got a piece of a floorboard I want to try this with, but I can't get it cut thin enough for now. Some day I'll try this method with some sort of relic. Thanks for watching!
Using your template, how many could be printed on computer paper?
I've never tried that. It's not really scaled for that either. I have it set up to print on the photo size so the cards end up a standard size. You'll have to experiment a little with the standard paper. Good luck!
So with template, I am having trouble getting the right sizing with the images fitting inside the template lines. Could you post a video or explain how you got your image to fit perfectly within the template?
It's a little hard to explain here but you have to keep it to scale and try to use the template as a frame. Feel free to reach out to me on Instagram and I can try to explain further
Where can I find your template?
Hello! I downloaded the template and then opened up Paint 3D. How do I access the template in the program?
You can right click on the file in your downloads and select, "Open in Paint3D"
@@waxmuseumpodcast Hmm.. I didn't have that option. It kept making me download different extension for search engines. I honestly think it didn't even download the template. I got two search engines instead after I clicked download.
@@stephstremp Try this link instead i.ibb.co/d2Hv3Y2/4x6-Template-white-border-Copy.jpg
great video and very helpful, but i keep clicking the link for the canvas and just get a photo that I cant use. Can you tell me how to get there in the app?
Have you tried from a desktop browser?
@@waxmuseumpodcast No just a laptop
Thanks for this great video. How do I create this templete in Paint 3d?
Save the file to your computer, right click on it, select Open With, and choose Paint3D. I hope this helps!
This is an amazing video! If I may ask..how do you upload the template to paint 3D. Also when you save it and upload to a printing company does it automatically become the card size? I’m sorry if you may have already answered this.
If you save the template file to your computer (it's just an image file), you can choose to open it in Paint3D (either right click on the file wherever you save it or use Paint3D menu to find it). If you upload the photos to Walgreen's site and have it print as a 5x7, it should end up the correct size. Good luck and thanks for watching!
How and where do you even make the picture to paste on the template? Or is it just a copy of another card brand
It's based on a Panini Next Day auto design. I took a picture of an old card and edited it in Paint3D on my computer.
Do you have any issues with Walgreens/CVS/other not printing due to copyright logos? I'm about to start the journey of custom cards and I'm basically looking for the best place to print.
I haven't so far, but there's always that risk.
Thank you for this awesome video. If you could help me print some custom cards please lmk. Or if anyone can help with printing, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and God Bless
Great video. The question is now, how do we make refractors?
Ha that's beyond me
Buy foil laminate and apply to the top is 1 way. If you do cut outs and want the background you could also do foil cardstock and layer the cut out print on top of the foil cardstock. All on RUclips. Items found at Walmart, craft stores and Amazon.
@@mikeferretti7422 u have video?
hi sir, this is a helpful video. just like to ask, what paper did the printer use? is that printed on a photo paper , it look glossy /shiny.
I had them printed on standard photo paper at Walgreens. It has a more glossy finish to it.
Hello! Amazing video, Just one problem, When I save the image from my computer and put it into the image thing in the wall greens app, it is super zoomed out. is it supposed to be like that or is there something I can do to fix it. and another, can you possibly make a video on how you crop the pictures. I dont know how you get them to look so fit. Thank you!
Maybe you could try uploading it from a computer instead of the app? I'm not sure if that will fix it. As long as the image is the right scale, it should conform to the resizing on the Walgreens app.
So with the print, does it have more of a sports card feel or is it just photo paper? I’ve been trying to get the right feel for years, unfortunately I don’t have the technology to do it 😂
It's just a basic glossy photo paper
Okay thanks! Those cards are sick dude!
Do we have to print the design with paper or poster boards :)?, since I don’t think my printer can print poster boards :((.
You don't need to print posters. As shown in the video, you get the design printed on photo paper and then you adhere it around the edge of a board.
ok thank you!
@@waxmuseumpodcast
How hard would this be to do on a iPhone? And what material do you use? Do you just print it from Walgreens or Walmart as a 4x6 photo? Please let me know thanks for this info
I don't have an iPhone, but I figure it would be really tough. You could download the template I put in the description and possibly frame a picture in it on your phone, but I don't know if you'd be able to make it look like a card. I print these from Walgreens as 4x6 photos.
loved it thanks
Thanks for watching!
Have a question? Just thought of this today while trying to figure out what to add to a "player pack" that I am assembling to give to all the players that register for a "Disc Golf" tournament i am holding this summer, and I thought how cool wouldn it be to see the smile on the player's faces when they realize that they have a trading card of their very own? How can I get them to send me a photo of themselves that I can use to make their cards with without getting suspicious? This looks really difficult to do
Does it have to be an action shot? Seems like you could probably browse their social media accounts (or those of their significant others who post pics of them). Or just tell them you're thinking about putting together a program and need a nice looking headshot.
@@waxmuseumpodcast yes that might work Thanks :)
I print my cards on photo paper, but I’m having trouble with the ink as it keeps smearing when I touch it. Any tips on how to fix?
You probably need to get them printed at a Walgreens instead
if your printing on photo paper and its smearing then that means its A.)wrong side of paper , B)your printer settings arent correct c) the paper is meant for laser printer and your using an inkjet.. Im assuming it might be the printer settings arent being switched but i could be wrong.
I wanted to make a custom basketball card for my team. This is my last year of playing college basketball and I just want to make a custom collection of my team. This is agreat help but I never realised how hard this process is😅
If your in America you should try to enter the draft!
can you share the link for the card holders that you use?
Sure! Are you looking for the photo corners I use to mount them for autographs, or the plastic toploaders I store them in after they're signed?
You may not think your that talented but you're better than i am !
After i get the template on paint 3d how do i make front and back of the card to insert into the template?
I don't want just a plain photo but a little more like a real card like yours .
Can you do a video tutorial on that ?
You might have to open a separate Paint3D window and make an image you can copy and paste onto the front/back portions of the template. It takes quite a bit of practice.
@@waxmuseumpodcast thanks, I was trying to figure out how you made the template with the name tag etc.
I would love to be able to put a few bio facts on the back
Hey, awesome video! the link for the template was just a PDF Editor so now iam confused?
thanks!
It still works for me when I click it. I had to click on it as it was loading and eventually it showed up.
The link in the comments does not work. Can you please updated the link so it is accessible?
Are you trying it on a desktop? It still works for me. If you can't get it, send me a message on IG and we can try that way.
Yeah I am but I dont have IG is there another way I can do it?@@waxmuseumpodcast
Hey, i loved you video. You inspired me to make my own cards! Would you mind sharing which font you used? :)
Unfortunately I made the mistake of not writing it down. I've made quite a few mistakes through this process...trying to learn from them along the way!
@@waxmuseumpodcast Don't worry. I'm sure I'll find a solution. Thanks for the quick response! Do you remember any favourites you like to use by chance?
@@stefanstangl7545 I don't. I know it was one of the standard fonts on Paint3D though. I didn't have to download any fonts online or anything like that.
@@waxmuseumpodcast ah ok, thanks for the reply anyways, i really appreciate that. I hope life is well for you, you seem like a kind person☺️
What is that app or program you use at the beginning those two card frames?
I design the card in Paint3d
What kind of puncher is that? All the ones I see wouldn’t even reach that far in the middle
It looks like it's out of stock right now, but I used this one here amzn.to/4bKCC1z
What did you print it out on?
It should all be in the video. I had the photos printed at Walgreens (glossy) and I adhered them to a piece of thin posterboard.
Ok, thank you
What were your dimensions? For the digital image and the physical cards?
The template image was 1200x800 pixels. I had that printed as a 4x6 inch photo at Walgreen's. When you fold that template over the edge of a piece of posterboard, you can cut the trading card to a standard size. If you have more questions, feel free to reach out on Instagram. I'll get messages faster there.
So I used the template you provided, and after I cut the grey border off the card was still slightly bigger than normal cards. Did I do something wrong?
No, it was made that way to account for cutting errors. Just cut it a little smaller until it matches up with other cards. Let me know if you have other questions!
@@waxmuseumpodcast you're a smart human lol that makes sense, thank you so much! The template is awesome
@@thedogface502 Thank you and good luck with your cards! I hope they turn out awesome!
@@waxmuseumpodcast they did, thank you!
What is that app
Can you print them at your house and if so what should I print them on
I've had some people tell me they printed them at home and the ink smeared. My guess is it really just depends on how nice of a photo printer you have and the quality of the paper. You would still print them as 4x6s.
@@waxmuseumpodcast ok thanks
I tried this and the glue just does not come out as smoothly as it did for you😭it keeps going through to the other side of the photo or leaving moisture
It sounds like you might be using too much. You only need a thin coat.
@@waxmuseumpodcast I try, it just comes out like that
What size do the cards actually end up being?
If you cut them correctly, they're the size of a standard trading card.
Any template idea for Mac users?
That's a world I'm not very familiar with. But I imagine you could open the same file on some sort of Apple editing program.
how do i download this link? it just opens in a browser with no download option.
You can probably right click on it and save us. I just responded to your email and I sent you the file there as well. Good luck!
What kind of poster board is that?
It was the most basic version I could find. Sometimes they sell them in multipacks of 5 or 10. I've found them at both Walmart and Walgreens.
Will they fit into slabs?
You can cut them down to standard size, so they should fit in slabs, toploaders, etc.
What is the legality concern if there were sold.
I'm really just making them for my own collection, so I'm not sure.
Do u have the pix numbers for canvas.
I don't. I just make it fit the template I put in the description and then print as a 4x6.
@@waxmuseumpodcast I'm have hard time finding template.
Where’s the link
It should be in the description
What do u use to design the card
Paint3d
What app is it
I use Paint3D on the computer and get them printed at Walgreen's.
Where is the link I can’t find it
It should still be in the description
How do you download HD photos?
I think I found this Media Day stuff on Twitter or Google images.
can this be done with an at home printer?
I suppose it's possible. It just depends on how well it prints photos.
@@waxmuseumpodcast will it be able to print like yours did. Yours looked glossy in the video
@@christiannunez1472 You will have to use glossy photo paper.
Trying to learn how to print myself. It's really tough since I am so tech deficient lol. I would love to learn or have some one help me out with printing. Thanks and.Gid Bless
Do you have to use the spray or can you use regular glue
I've always used the spray because the application is quick and it's distributed pretty even. You could probably use a different type, but you'll have to do a trial run to know for sure.
@@waxmuseumpodcast ok ty
Where is the link
Should be in the video description
This does not look like a horrible method. 2 Decades back I tried making my own trading cards from home and I did a similar method but this actually looks like a great idea but I will change just one thing. That’s adding a little bit of extra room on that finding edge that you can use a paper cutter to cut that edge off at all sides of the card look at uniform. Since then I have actually been getting my cards printed add a printer on demand place.
Yeah sometimes I cut them a little larger because it gives me more flexibility if needed. If I changed anything else, I would probably also use an acid-free adhesive. I don't know what these will look like years down the road.
@@waxmuseumpodcast thank you for that suggestion. I will be putting NFC chips in mine so that’s probably important.
