Oh I forgot about that detail! Thanks for reminding me, I was about to cut open some cards...

I may attempt it on some dgm cards since I have too many of those commons.

This is what I made, beads I bought were too big to put 10 so I had to wing it.  There are 5 total gates, 3 are cut slightly, last one not at all and first one everything but the outside so it adds extra depth.  All are foiled so it shines really nice.  Hope u guys like.

Looks good! The beads I bought were too big also, I found beads of the right size in Walmart in the Arts and Crafts section. They are glass beads and come in a a little hard plastic rectangular prism.

Yea, I looked at all my Walmart had, but wasn't a big selection so I just went with that.  Wasn't horrible but hey.

What are you using to add height/create the depth? And how many of a single card are you using to make these?

You don't have to use all of the same card, as long as the front and back are the same card. To find out how much height you want, take you bead and hold it to the side of a stack of cards then adjust until the stack is a little thicker than your bead. If you want to just wing it, that's what I did, use about 20-30 cards.

^pretty much, I picked a card that had several layers so cutting each separately added extra depth.  I think anywhere between 4-6 "extras*" in between is a good number but if you only have like 1 layer obviously any will do.

* useless cards (usually lands) just filling the space between the "art" cards.

Don't use that, use proposal, the card Richard used to propose to his girlfriend in a magic game.  Only 3 copies ever printed.

Wow,I didn't know about that one, maybe ill pull the two out of my trade binder then...

But seriously only 3 ever? That is kinda cool though.

Yea was a cute gesture, needless to say she said yes, so he kept the card, gave her one, and let the man who printed them have one.  Funny thing is, the printer guy eventually lost it.  Cool story to talk about though.

Made a new counter of elspeth.
