What you can do

Two studios: a trading card maker with real frames and symbols, and a free design page for every other kind of card.

Questions

Is Cardwright free?

Yes. Designing and exporting is free. You only pay if you order printed cards from NeuralProxiesMTG on Etsy.

What is bleed, and do I need it?

Bleed is a little extra picture around the edge of a card, so a tiny shift when cutting never leaves a sliver of the wrong color. Fronts don't need it: Cardwright exports them at the exact card size and keeps a 1 mm safe zone so text stays clear of the cut. Card backs get 1 mm bleed by default, because a solid or patterned back shows any drift most. You can turn bleed on or off for fronts and backs whenever you like.

Do I need an account?

No. Your work is saved in your browser. If you want it on another device, use Save to cloud to get a private link, or save a design file.

Where do my photos go?

They stay in your browser. Background removal and pop-out run on your device. Photos only leave it if you make a share link, a cloud save, or send an order pack to us for printing.

Are these official Magic: The Gathering cards?

No. Cards made with Cardwright are fan-made and not for tournament play or resale. Cardwright is not affiliated with or endorsed by Wizards of the Coast or any game publisher.
