    How do you turn index cards into Custom made cards???

    I have a good amount of autographs on index cards that I would like to turn into custom cards but have no idea how to do it or the best way too. Any suggestions?

    I've considered making essentially a faceplate for some of my plain white autos since I don't want to cut them... I haven't done it yet but it seems like that'd be pretty simple to find a pic of the player print it out and then cut out an area for the auto to show through...lots of people on here have made some sweet custom cut cards though...you should be able to find some examples in the custom thread on here.

    Here is a tutorial I made showing how I make cuts .

    Items I use
    1:the photo to cut the autograph from

    2: clue stick

    3: photo paper

    4:printer (Lexmark X5470)

    5: blank card from packs (A Decoy)

    6: ruler

    7:Paper trimmer


    1st thing I do is I make the card in photoshop (3.5 X2.5 and 300 DPI)

    Then I measure the autograph to find out what size I need to leave the space to be cut out on the card, I resize the space to leave enough room for the auto.

    I print the card.


    I cut out the card and the window with my paper trimmer (I would suggest making a couple of cards just to get used to cutting with the paper trimmer.)

    I use the paper trimmer to cut out the autograph I cut the auto bigger than will show in the window.

    I use the glue stick to glue the auto to the blank, I set it aside and let it dry for usually 30 minutes.

    I apply glue to the card and stick it on top of the auto and blank and then let it dry.
