I Created a New Trading Card Product Line!

[mouschi]

Old Magazine page + signed index card = Custom High End ALF!



Signed Post Card + Trading Card = Mickey Mantle Cut Signature



Magazing + dog chewed trading card = Al Kaline cut signature



Wedding Picture + Invitation = Keepsake that may actually get your wife into cards (Hey, we can dream, can't we?)



Here they are all together:



This is my first "invention" so to speak, and I'm very proud of it. I look forward to hearing what you all think about this as well! I hope this will be a bit hit for folks this Christmas, as I've gotten loads of requests to create personal cards as gifts.

Oh, and what a better way to kick off my first invention than with my first infomercial?

For anyone who does pick up a kit, I encourage everyone to post what they have made online. I'd get a huge kick out of seeing what other people use this for.

As always, thanks for reading! I look forward to hearing what you all think.

Very cool stuff, wish you the best of luck with these.

Cool idea!

I like it and may be purchasing 1-2 shortly.

I have a picture of my Dad playing baseball in high school and this custom card of yours has given me an idea what to do with it.

Oh and....No moustache on the microphone? I'm disappointed!

I think this is absolutely an incredible idea and wish you the best of luck on it. You could market these to little league teams as a giveaway at the end the season.
Great way to use your creativity and allow others not so creative to enjoy the process.

My only question is how good is the adhesive used on the card backs. As someone that has built several multi layered cards I am sure i could easily put your awesome new cards together. On the other hand I can see someone with no experience having real problems getting the back even close to lined up properly.

That is a good question. It is basically a sticker. I think it would be easy to line up, but ultimately, I suppose someone could even just glue the back on w/out taking the backing off.

There is a little bit of getting your hands dirty, so to speak, but I think this is well within the realm of ease for the everyday consumer when in line with any other type of do it yourself kit...probably even much easier!

I use a lot of Avery shipping labels for fronts/backs on items. I know they also make a removable version. I have never tried them but maybe it would be worth looking at in case someone does not get the back lined up the first time they have another chance.
