Wild Card custom card with an original anime kid and a small winged creature

"I created a few AI cards for my kids. I started collecting back on February and the boys love the Kaboom cards. My daughter loves princesses so I made her a Disney card through AI. I looked for a company to actually make the card and found Snapshots. Very easy to use, very fast, excellent price. They actually called me to verify some of the information on the picture and offered to make any changes. I received them very quickly. I rarely leave reviews, but I felt this company deserved to hear that they are doing it right and I will definitely be using them again very soon."

"We had my son’s senior pictures taken at Target field so I wanted to put those images on a baseball card to give out at his graduation party! I had so much fun creating them on the website! I ordered them on a Wednesday night and they were at my door that Saturday! Very quick! I couldn’t wait to open them! They are awesome! Better than I could have ever imagined! The quality is well worth the money! Amazing job! Will definitely recommend to anyone looking for a unique way to capture a forever memory!"

"I ordered cards on a Monday so they would be shipped and arrive by Friday. The next day through a series of unexpected events and missed communications on my part, I discovered my order was delayed. I reached out to see if there was anyway my order could still be processed and shipped out on time. Graham (CTO) reached out to me personally via email and phone to fix the issue and ensure my order was processed and shipped out on time. I received them on that Friday as I was originally hoping. Upon opening they were better than expected. The card stock is sturdy and the printing was high quality! I would definitely recommend this company and will be making more cards to order."

Your character. A real card to give and keep.

Start with your own photo and choose a framed portrait in Wild Card or a larger art area in Wild Card (Full Art). Both use AI portraits and require a free account. Personalize the name and card details, review the preview, then choose your print options. Print for as little as $0.90 a card in a 100-card Bulk Box of one design, or $17.99 for a single card with a magnetic display case; physical printing is a separate purchase.

Choose the layout and printed-card quantity below. A free account is required for the AI portrait workflow. These are custom Pokemon-style keepsakes, not official TCG cards.

Wild Card or Full Art: compare the actual layouts

These are the current public template examples: an illustrated football player in Wild Card and a basketball player in Full Art. Personalize either layout with your own photo and character details.

This choice sets the number of copies of the first design you save. To make a set of different Rookie designs, start with one card, add each design separately and check its copy count. Bulk boxes repeat one design.

The holographic option above is one complete printed card. For a larger holographic order, select a box and review its finish upgrade in the builder.

A physical holographic card. This photographed baseball sample shows the reflective finish and magnetic case. The pattern changes with the light; a metallic-looking template preview alone does not add holographic printing.

Plan the person, the character and the gift

A birthday hero

Use one clear face, a familiar nickname and a move based on something they love. Start with a portrait where the face is not hidden by sunglasses, deep shadow or another person.

Writing idea: “Birthday Boost — makes every game night better.” Replace the example with your own words in the available move fields.

One standard card: $17.99 USD

A matching pair

Create one design per person, using the same frame and complementary move names. Two individual portraits are two designs. Add the second card separately in a two-card Rookie Box.

Writing idea: “Adventure Partner” and “Home Team.” A single shared portrait is a different composition: check both faces in the result before deciding to print it.

Two standard cards: $21.99 USD

Plan a couples card gift

A pet character

Choose a sharp photo at your pet’s eye level, with ears and markings visible. Check that the illustration keeps the features you recognize; use a favorite habit to inspire its move.

Writing idea: “Treat Radar — detects a snack from the next room.” These are suggested words, not a promise of a preset or an example of a completed order.

Check the reverse before you order

Wild Card and Full Art currently use fixed Snapshot reverse artwork. Put your personalized character name, move and message in the fields available on the front. These templates do not provide an editable dedication on the back.

These previews use the current published template backs. They are Snapshot-branded designs, not official Pokémon TCG backs.

A single holographic card is $20.98 USD including the card and its magnetic display case. Choose the physical finish in the order; shine in the illustration does not select the upgrade.

Start the first card of your pair

Start with one copy of the first person’s design. Add the second person as a separate design, keep one copy of each and review the updated two-card total before ordering. One magnetic case is included per Rookie Box.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I personalize the back of Wild Card or Full Art?

These two templates currently use fixed red-and-black Snapshot reverse artwork. Wild Card includes the Snapshot wordmark; Full Art uses the patterned reverse. Personalize the available character name, move and message fields on the front. These templates do not include an editable back dedication or an official Pokémon TCG back.

Can I make my own Pokemon card?

Yes. Choose Wild Card or Wild Card (Full Art), sign in with a free account and use your own photo to create an illustrated character. Personalize the name and available card details, review the design, and order a physical card separately. The standard printed card is 2.5 x 3.5 inches. This is a personalized keepsake, not an official Pokemon TCG card.

Do I need an account to use the card maker?

Yes. Both Wild Card and Wild Card (Full Art) use AI portraits and require a free account. Check the current generation limits in the builder; a free account does not mean unlimited AI generation or free physical cards. Review your design and purchase total before ordering.

Are these official Pokemon cards?

No. Snapshot is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to Nintendo, Creatures Inc., GAME FREAK or The Pokemon Company. We print custom, fan-made cards from artwork and photos you supply. They are not official product and are not legal for tournament play. We cannot print copyrighted characters or artwork you do not have the right to use.

What size are the cards?

The standard printed card is 2.5 x 3.5 inches (63.5 x 88.9 mm). Check your sleeve, binder or display dimensions when choosing how to present the gift.

Which frames can I use?

Choose Wild Card for a framed art window or Wild Card (Full Art) for a larger artwork area. Both use AI portraits and require a free account. Open each template to compare its preview and available personalization controls.

How much does a custom card cost?

As little as $0.90 a card in a 100-card Bulk Box of one design. A single standard card is $17.99 and includes a magnetic display case. Additional cards, larger formats and optional upgrades change the total; review current box pricing in the builder before ordering. Free US standard shipping on orders $30+ — $5.00 flat under that.

Can I print a whole set?

A Rookie Box holds up to 18 cards with different designs, so your set can mix frames. Bulk Boxes of 25, 50 or 100 repeat one design. Choose the product that matches whether you want a set of characters or multiple copies of one card.

How do I personalize a card as a gift?

For a birthday, use a recognizable photo and a character name based on the recipient’s nickname. For a friend, turn a shared joke or favorite hobby into a move name. For a pet, choose a photo with the face clearly visible and build the character around its personality. These are design ideas, not prewritten product options; review the actual template controls and proof the final card before ordering.

How long does it take?

Allow time to create the portrait and review the name, spelling, character details and crop before ordering. Check the current production and delivery options at checkout for your destination. If the card is a gift, choose your order timing around those estimates; no fixed arrival date is promised here.

Pokemon and Pokemon TCG are trademarks of Nintendo, Creatures Inc. and GAME FREAK inc. Snapshot is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by them.

Make their next favorite keepsake
