Hacking Random11's Credit Card Sized amiibo cards

Page>Copy ... source page doesnt matter, input how many pages you want to add. They only down side to doing it in one big pdf is if you have messed something up, or the printer settings aren't right if you print a ton at once its just going to cost you more money if there is something wrong. But as long as you are sure everything is good one single pdf is fine.

okay thanks for the advice, ill porb just stick with 4 cards per pdf (front/back), don't wanna mess things up in the long run.

hey guys sorry about double post, i tired printing the cards on sticky photo paper and they came out good, downside is I kept messing them up when it came time to cut it out and paste it on the pvc,

decided to get this printer https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AVWKUJS and this tray https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00P25H0BA

but their website keeps turning my templates black/white, i saw that someone had posted that they also used this method to print on the cards directly, so I was wondering if you could help me out with a template.

@ninjistix If you do get this working I would like to see what a printed card looks like.

Also, are you using the Inkjet printable cards or just the regular PVC cards. I got a bunch of regular ones and from what I can find they wont allow the ink to stick.

I have the regular NFC PVC cards, and I just Ordered some of these, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072FK4RZD waiting for my printer to come tho, it got delay. it turns out the images are in cmyk and need to be converted to rgb in order for me to use the tool on braincardid to make the printable template.

can't fix the white lines, dont really care anymore, also the tray sucks ass... wish their was a better option, it doesn't hold the card correctly and i have to keep putting it in the printer several times to get it to print

Hey @Random11 I love your work! It looks amazing and its great! Thanks for sharing it! We made it with my siblings and we are enjoying them a lot.

I know it's a lot of work... but there is a chance you could make this ones (or some of them) with bleed as well?

These are from @CompC too.. If you can make them, at least megaman and kirby that are my little brothers favourites it would be amazing... and if not, thanks anyways, we will enjoy what we already have!

Thanks again for sharing your work

did you print directly to the cards or print to paper then cut/paste?

I printed them in a sticker-like paper... then i folded the paper in the bleed lines to mark where the card goes, stick one side, cut the rest and then the same on the other side. the only issue i had was some little air bubbles that sometimes get stucked in the middle... but it only bothers if you look the cards closely...

a few of mines ended up with white corners, i prob need to change the artwork, but i think its the stupid tray, i can't be bothered anymore anyways lol.

The Second batch looks nice even with the white lines.
Glad to know the non printable cards don't work.

I'm new to this idea but I love it and would love to collect and make my own. After getting a pack of blank CCs with Tags in them, what's the best place to go and print sticker versions of the character arts? Sadly I do not own a printer atm.

slowly... I will work on smash... Im less likely to do the super mario ones though. There isnt high resolution artwork out there for all the amiibo in the set. Maybe at some point but not right now.

Hi @Random11! Love your Splatoon 2 Amiibo Cards! I was wondering if you could send me the template? I'm planning to create all 11 cards. Thank you so much!

I need art for 28mm circular NFC tags but have no idea where to start when it comes to arty stuff. I can't even figure out how to get a pic and size it correctly, never mind look good.

Did you use photoshop to do the cards?
