Playing Cards Mockup Set v.4

For Custom Playing Card Designers and Kickstarter Creators

Your Kickstarter campaign or crowdfunding page needs product images that convince backers your deck is worth supporting before it exists as a physical product. This 6-file set gives you enough compositions to fill your entire campaign image gallery with professional mockups showing card faces, backs, spreads, and stacked deck views. Backers want to see the full design system - how the face cards relate to the number cards, how the back pattern looks across a fanned spread, and how the deck presents as a finished boxed product. Use the dark background compositions for dramatic hero shots and the light background scenes for clean detail views. Swap between design iterations in minutes during your pre-launch testing phase without reshooting anything.

For Board Game and Tabletop Game Designers

Card components are central to how players perceive your game quality. This mockup set lets you present game cards in realistic arrangements that communicate both the artwork quality and the tactile experience of handling the cards. Use these mockup images for your game page on BoardGameGeek, your publisher pitch deck, your Kickstarter campaign, or your retail product photography. The multiple compositions let you highlight different aspects of your card design - ability cards fanned for overview, single cards zoomed for readability testing, and stacked decks for packaging shots.

For Graphic Designers and Branding Agencies

Client presentations for custom playing card projects need visuals that sell the design concept in context. This 6-file set provides enough variety to fill a complete pitch deck section showing the card design from every angle. Present the hero spread, the back pattern close-up, the stacked deck, and the individual card detail - all in one meeting with consistent, professional photography quality. The organized layer structure means you can swap between design concepts in seconds during live client reviews without rebuilding the mockup files.

For Custom Card Sellers and Print Shops

Selling custom playing cards on Etsy, your own website, or through specialty retailers requires product photography that shows both the artistry and the production quality. This mockup set gives you 6 professional compositions per deck design without photographing physical samples. Build complete product galleries, create comparison images between different deck themes, and produce seasonal promotional content - all from the same PSD files by swapping artwork and adjusting backgrounds.

Technical Workflow

Open any of the 6 PSD files in Adobe Photoshop CC 2020 or newer. Locate the card smart object layers in the layers panel - face and back designs have separate smart objects for independent editing. Double-click a smart object to open it, paste or place your card artwork, save, and close. The main canvas updates automatically with your design, applying paper texture, perspective mapping, and shadow effects specific to that scene. Adjust the background color through the dedicated background layer. Repeat across all 6 files to build a complete product image set.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Photoshop version do I need? Adobe Photoshop CC 2020 or any newer version.

Can I use these for commercial products? Yes. Your Creatsy license covers commercial use including e-commerce listings, Kickstarter campaigns, crowdfunding pages, social media marketing, client presentations, and printed materials.

Can I edit card faces and backs separately? Yes. Each card surface has its own smart object layer, so you can customize the face design and back pattern independently across all compositions.

What are the export dimensions? Each PSD exports at 6000 x 4000 pixels at 300 DPI, suitable for both web and print applications.

Are the cards standard poker size? The mockup shows standard playing card proportions. Your design maps onto the card surface with accurate perspective for the specific arrangement in each scene.

Why Creatsy

Every Creatsy mockup is built from real product photography - not 3D renders or AI-generated composites. The paper texture, card edges, natural shadows, and studio lighting you see are captured from actual playing cards in professional photo setups, which is why designs placed into smart objects look genuinely photorealistic. Creatsy files follow a consistent layer structure across all products, so the workflow transfers directly to any other file in the library.
