Card Creation

[Rene]

What medium do you create your cards?
How do you cut your cards?
Do you cut them before, or after creating your art?
How do you round the corners (if you round them)?

Overall, what is your card creation process?

I love hearing all of the different ways cards are created!

I cut my Cards in advance so they are ready to go , at the moment i have square cards but i have ordered a round cutter LOL

I also cut mine before drawing. I use a manual die cutter, but sometimes I use a razor when I don’t feel like pulling out that heavy ass machine lol.

I want an electric die cutter, like a silhouette, but that’ll have to wait.

Most know my favorite medium is graphite lol. I love the slick feeling of pencils. Helps that I have a soft spot for black and white art.

I like to use pastels. I am not that good with them, but I do try. I cut my cards out after I have already done it, because I don't want to waste the effort cutting it if it turns out like crap. I don't round the corners, though. Maybe I can do that. I just like the look of the crisp edges.
