How I Make TRADING CARDS! + Creature Re-Design
Since I started making my creature cards people have been asking HOW and WHERE I make them… well time to spill the beans, here is how you make them (sort of) + a bonus redesign an old critter!

Materials:
Printer is printed.com
I use InDesign for adding bleed and exporting image to CMYK (from RGB)
For this video I used Ipad + procreate to design the card and creature
normally I would use a watercolour sketch + Krita on my PC
A Pokemon card is 63 x 88 mm, but it’s easier to test print with business card sized cards and A7 postcards.

Um. I have a question, what marker did you use when drawing the creature? Just asking bc I couldn't find any useful markers in procreate xD also very cool art :O
Can you draw realistic animals?
my sister had bella sara cards which I then tried to get her to play yugioh it didnt work lol
I'm doing my own TCG and this video is awesome.
Imma follow you bc I've be doing this for a while and your stuff looks amazing 👏🏼
Hey Dina, what Ipad would you recommend for beginners? I just getting started to draw, like what would you say is the bare minimum?
hi, how can you do the background of the card?
Can I hire u for a project ?
i must say i love detailed backgrounds they invoke wonder and wanting to know more about where the creature is from 🙂
Wow! Amazing!
this video gave me lots of inspiration! thankyouu!
I just felt in love
PLEASE tell me where I can buy those cards?
very very nice video
thanks
Love love LOVED this!! (Side note, if you're on a Mac you can use "screen record" with Quicktime to capture your computer a lil better. Hope that helps!) But this was amazing to watch!
Me seeing the video: this is cool.
Also me: I NEED TO MAKE IT!!!!!

Funny thing is you overlooked something when it comes to card sizes, sleeves and binder sheets. Pokemon and other games have a specific size for the reason of products that support them, if the card is too small, it'll fall out, and if it's too big it just won't fit.
Just thought it was important to point this out.
