Use Customized Trading Cards to Host Events for Pets in Your Community

Your love of animals can be a great asset when it comes to meeting people in your neighborhood. You can create different activities that will allow the pets and people in your community to have fun and get to know each other. Our custom trading cards can help you with these activities.

Dog Walking Groups

Dog walking groups can be fun and helpful. You can spend time with your friends and get yourselves and your animals the exercise you need. You and a few friends can take turns walking the dogs in the neighborhood when their owners are at work. Use our customized trading cards to give everyone important information about the dogs they are walking.

Pet Parties

By hosting a party that includes pets, you are giving your neighbors a fun day out that doesn't include having to leave their pets alone or finding a pet-sitter. Provide treats for the animals and the owners and a backyard where the dogs can run and play. This will not only create a relaxing time for you and your friends, but it will also give the animals time to socialize and wear themselves out before going home. You can even use our special occasion invitations to give your friends and neighbors the party information.

Host a Fundraiser for a Local Shelter

Animal shelters can always use more funds and more publicity, so why not create a big fundraiser that will bring animal lovers from all over the community? Maybe you could rent a park with a leash-free area so that everyone can bring their dogs if they like. You can create custom trading cards for the shelter animals and hand them out so that everyone can see the animals that are available for adoption and decide which would be the best fit for their family.

These are just a few options for community pet activities, so try thinking up a few of your own. Become a part of your community through the use of our custom trading cards. For more information, please contact us.

Cam Newton: A Testament of Sportsmanship

Cam Newton: A Testament of Sportsmanship

We here at Custom Sports Cards really appreciate a solid inspirational story. It's always nice to hear or watch inspirational happenings with all the negative stuff going on in the world. We think we've found one you might just need to follow.

It's hard to know much about Cam Newton unless you really take the time to research his life. It looks like we won't have to do that because of this miniseries starring Cam that looks to be shaping up to be quite the story. We say you might need to "follow" because we are only 2 out of 5 episodes into the series, sponsored by Under Armour. The first episode bounces back and forth between his busy schedule, rehab for his current ankle injury to get ready for the NFL season, and his foundation (The

Cam Newton Foundation) hosting it's annual 7 v 7 high school football tournament. We begin following Cam build his All-Star team.

Episode 2 digs much deeper and we begin to see what this story is really about. Cam's ability to overcome and teach others. This episode includes tribulations in Cam's life including an arrest. We don't want to go any further and spoil anything, we think anyone would benefit from checking out this series.

To check out the first 2 episodes and put it on your favorites list to access when the 3rd episode is released click here. It is appropriate to watch with your children, especially if they are into any type of sports. We're going to follow it until the last episode airs in early September.

Don't forget if that little one is in fact into sports, you can turn your photos of them into customized sport cards!

Celebrity Status for Pets that Work as Therapy Dogs

If your pet serves as a therapy dog, then your pet is a celebrity.  They create experiences that provide comfort, laughter, and contentment for the people who need it most.  Now that is something to celebrate! 

Whether you and your dog love visiting the elderly in nursing homes or enjoy getting to know children in hospitals, custom trading cards are a fun and effective way to both advertise your services and leave something meaningful for the people you visit.

Customized trading cards with your therapy dog's picture on the front are unique, making them perfect for advertising the one-of-a-kind service your dog provides.  The cards give smiles and inspiration while being practical by spreading the word and providing your contact information.

When a visit comes to an end, leave a photo card with the people whose lives were brightened by your pet to help keep the memories alive.  Include a message from your pet or an encouraging quotation on the back to turn it into a keepsake that will be uplifting for them every time they refer back to it.

And it just might come full circle when that person shares the card and their experience with a friend who decides they would like a visit too, furthering your reach and impact.

Our custom photo cards will help add to the good work you and your dog already do in the world.  And they'll help you treat your therapy dog like the celebrity they are!

A Way To Save The Memory 

You will never forget their time in youth sports, but they may want to remember the time more accurately too. Creating sports cards for them allows them to reflect back on that time and remember how much fun they had. Sports cards are also a great gift to family members who may not have been able to attend the games because they live out of town. 

Invite Friends To The Games 

The sports cards can be used as a way of inviting others to the games. They may want to see what it is like to enjoy one of these games in person. The card allows them the opportunity to know that they are invited to join in the fun and cheer on the young athlete.

Personalized Pets Trading Cards Are Going to The Dogs

Personalized Pets trading cards are going to the dogs! What a great way to honor your dog and promote canine sports. Pass them onto family, friends, neighbors, even people you meet when walking your dog. Hand them out to spectators at canine sporting events. Presenting potential event sponsors with your pet's trading card may make the difference in getting funding. Personalized pets trading cards will start a conversation. 

Our trading cards come in the standard sports card size of 2 1/2 by 3 1/2 inches and can be completely customized. Share your dog's athletic statistics. Choose a stats box for agility jump scores and rank in trails. List his top flyball heat scores. Highlight her favorite disc freestyle moves. Tout your dock dog's iron dog ranking. Show awards and achievements.

Create a more personal trading card by adding your dog's weight, breed, date of birth, sire, and dam. Let people know your dog is a mutt, a rescue, or adopted with amazing athletic abilities. You can also add a hometown, human partner, and a website if you want to be contacted. 

Tell the world how special your dog is in a brief paragraph or sentence. What is your dog's favorite toy, treat, person, game, activity, place to go, or best canine friend? How long has your dog been participating in her sport? Add a fun fact about the sport. Every trading card needs a photo. You can have one or more great shots of your dog on the front or back of the card.

We have several templates in different colors and styles that will make it easy for you to design your dog's trading card. Can't find what you want? We can create a custom template design to meet your needs. Contact us  and let's design a beautiful trading card for your canine athlete. 

Special Occasion Invitations Reflect Your Love Of Sport

When it comes time to celebrate something special, it's nice to have it reflect the personality of the celebrants. A great way to do that is to create special occasion invitations that express your love of the game.

Invite guests to a graduation party for a high school or college athlete with invitations that feature the guest of honor on a trading card as a star at his or her sport of choice.

Baby shower invites with a sports theme are a great way to make an event couple friendly. Use the team colors of the new mom's favorite team as a way to tie everything together. Then, follow up with birth announcements that are a "rookie card" with a picture of the future sports star.

Bar mitzvahs and bat mitzvahs can be a way for the honored young man or woman to show off their fondness for a favorite team, or to share their passion for softball, hockey, or soccer. The invitation can set the tone for the event, and can be followed up with party favors like mugs or mouse pads that share the image from the invitation.

What birthday isn't more special when it's personalized? A sports card invitation is great for the young future all-star, or for the person who's reached a milestone birthday and is an all-star in the minds of their friends.

Get engaged at the stadium? Getting married on the field? Or just wish you were? Start with save-the-date cards, and carry through the invitations with pictures of the happy couple in the midst of hard play, dressed for a "team picture", or just posed for their own collector card.

When you set the tone for your team or sports-themed event with the invitation, there'll be no doubt what kind of fun will be in store for your guests, and you'll be sure that invitation won't get lost on a desk somewhere.

If you want to create an invitation that will be unique and eye catching, as well as a lot of fun, contact us and we'll help you choose the perfect look for your event.
