If you are looking to create Sports Card style photos, you can use our Green Screen feature to allow for custom text inputs, so that guests can enter their specific information. Follow the guide below for details.
Additional items needed:
- Die Cutter
- Cardholder Sleeves
- Holographic Stickers (optional)
Below is an example:
This example is composed of:
- A custom background (jpg)
- A custom overlay (png) with transparency
- Two custom text fields (Name and Field Position - users will input these fields prior to capturing their photo)
Step 1: In your Green Screen tab
Create a new Green Screen, and assign your background and overlay files:
Tip: You can assign a thumbnail for guests to see if you are offering multiple choices (user-select). This can be a jpg render you have created, or you can use a photo already captured with these settings.
Step 2: Add your text fields
Click on Text and Layers:
Click the + sign, and type your custom Text Holder name into 'Title':
You can also customize the Font, Style, Color etc in this section, for each Text Holder:
Step 3: Use the green handle to position and size your Text Holder where you want it to appear (such as the Position or Full Name field in this example):
In this example we have also added a second Green Screen for the back of the card (without any Text Holders, although you can choose to do so), so we can capture a second photo for the back:
Step 4: Create your Page Design:
In our example, the first Photo Holder has the first (front) Green Screen applied, and the second Photo Holder has the second (back) Green Screen applied:
Once the 'Photo' button is pressed, guests will be prompted to enter the desired information:
Your resulting photo will include your Green Screen settings (including your text fields):
Front:
Back:
Use a cutter to split the two images, and place in your Cardholder Sleeves accordingly.
Below are examples where a photo is only captured for the front, so there is only one Green Screen created (to enable Text Holders and the Background), and the back of the card is part of the Page Design Overlay:
