I'm looking to create a card game for a friend's birthday and while I've got the idea mostly ready, I'm struggling on how to actually do it. I obviously want the price to stay as low as possible, but I don't want it to be terrible.
I'm thinking of buying blank trading cards and just drawing straight onto them, which would add to the uniqueness - would ebay be a safe bet or is there anywhere else that would sell them with good quality? I'm from Ireland so the P&P will also come into play, which is why I'm also working hard to try and source what I need locally, but so far there's been no joy with that.
Where I'm really struggling though is to find a box for them. Again, I'd want a blank one that I can draw the design directly onto.
As for the rule book, my computer and printer should do.
So can anyone help me find a good place to find these things? I'd be happy to buy in (relative) bulk as I intend to do this for other friends too, so I'm open to single or multiple purchases. Any help you guys could give me would be great, I'm fairly new and lost in this! Gone are my days of stick men on napkins...
Thanks for all the responses, guys.
I'm looking at thegamecrafter.com and it looks perfect for what I need. Is the quality of product good? Compared to a game you'd buy in the shop, what's the comparison?
