Personalized Custom Playing Cards

Here’s some good news (and we’re not bluffing, either): playing cards are one of the easiest products to create and customize on Zazzle. Not only do you have just the one template to work with, but there’s only one surface area to worry about; the front of the card, obviously, needs to be reserved for numbers, symbols and the characters on the face cards. With that said, however, if you really want to go all in, then it’s worth reading the following step-by-step guide:

• Step 1: First, navigate to the correct custom page. For playing cards, you’re already there, but you can access any other product by manipulating the URL: in the browser bar, after "www.zazzle.com," add "/custom/" and the name of the item you want to order, e.g. "/custom/playing+cards" or "/custom/notebooks."
• Step 2: Normally, there would be several templates to choose from, but with personalized playing cards, it’s just a single, classic variant. Click on the ‘1 result’ that’s displayed and you’ll be redirected to the product page.
• Step 3: Again, other Zazzle products have drop-downs to experiment with on the right-hand side of the page, but with playing cards, it’s very straightforward. Hit ‘Customize This Design’ to open the design tool and then you can input text, upload photos, add background colors and so on.
• Step 4: Click ‘Done’ to finalize your design and return to the product page. If you’re happy with your work – if it suits you, in other words – then add it to your cart, where you can ready the item for purchase. And that’s how you make your own cards with Zazzle!

Earlier, we mentioned our community of Independent Creators and the designs they’ve been uploading to our playing card hub. While custom cards are the focus of this page, we feel like shuffling things around a bit, and introducing you to some of the designers that have stolen our customers’ hearts. We’ve organized their work into a couple of exclusive ‘clubs’:

• Photo Playing Cards: Furnish your home casino with cards bearing your own image! Wedding photos, holiday photos and pet photos are also welcome!
• Monogram Playing Cards: What better way to proclaim yourself the king – or queen – of card games than with a signature deck?
• Wedding Playing Cards: Personalized decks of cards make for a fun, versatile wedding favor. You could slip them into your guests’ gift bags, or pass them around to your bridesmaids at your bachelorette party.
• Kids’ Playing Cards: While you’re engaged in the ultimate poker tournament in one room, you can have your kids learning the rules of Old Maid or Concentration in another.
• Logo Playing Cards: Playing cards branded with your logo, slogan or contact details can be a distinctive way of marketing your business. You could even build your logo from scratch with the icons, images and colors available via our design tool!

As we’ve suggested above, there are a lot of different uses for custom playing cards. You could hand them out as promotional materials at a college fair or recruitment drive; deal them in as poker cards for your next game night; immortalize precious photos and memories on their backs; drop them in as stocking stuffers for Christmas; and finally, if you’re feeling particularly creative, you could even create your very own game, and the cards to play it! It should be noted that our playing cards are printed on smooth, high-quality card stock that’s easy to shuffle and will withstand even the most frantic game of Snap or Crazy Eights.
