## Basic Materials
- Yugioh: 59x86mm (Aspect 0.69:1)
- Pokemon: 63x88mm (Aspect 0.72:1)
- Things you need:
    - Card to be covered
    - Self-adhesive, non-transparent glitter foil
    - Cricut printer
    - Card image and transparent version
    - Spray paint (light?)
## Helper
- Color all non-transparent pixels `convert 2.png -alpha extract -background black -alpha shape 2_2.png`
- Make all uniform pixels (here white) transparent and color the transparent ones `convert input.png -fuzz 10% -transparent white output.png`
## Instructions

## Steps
- Get the card image (without glitter)
- Adjust the card image size (so you can print it out and the image is as large as the card)
- Flip the card image horizontally
- Print on transparent foil (possibly inkjet printer - but laser printer should work too? Photo paper plus glossy II)
- Then open the card image with GIMP or similar.
