instruction

1. Take the trading cards.

With Yu-Gi-Oh! trading cards, the motifs are already squre. That's why you can simply cut them out. Tip: Make sure that the motifs are all the same size. Yu-Gi-Oh! trading cards have two different motif sizes.

You can find out how to draw on non-square pictures in my tutorial memory game with stickers.

2. Take the cardboard. If you use different cardboards, make sure that the thickness of the cardboards is always the same. Glue the cut-out trading cards onto the cardboard.

3. Put a clean sheet of paper on top of the cards and books over it so that the cards don't curl. Let the whole thing dry.

4. Cut out the cards with the cardboard. Or continue with step 5 and then cut out the cards. I leave that up to you. 

5. Stick the adhesive glitter foil on the back and cut off the overlap.

Your memory game is ready. 

Note: Children who collect Yu-Gi-Oh! trading cards are totally enthusiastic about this memory game. Of course, you can also use other trading cards, such as Pokémon.
