How to make beautiful cards. Instructions: how to issue a card with an individual design from Sberbank. Basic conditions and requirements for a card with an individual image from Sberbank

When you need to indicate on the map the real location of the office or some object, then the service Google maps provides you with a very wide range of possibilities. It is very often that the style of the map that is inserted into the site does not match the style and color scheme. But this service allows you to change the standard view of the map, adjust the saturation, brightness, add your own marker icon to the map, and so on.

Below are the articles where you can choose interesting effects when scrolling your landing page:

Practical implementation

Stage 1. Structure

Here you only need one common container in which the map itself will be placed, the increase / decrease buttons and the line with the address:

Stage 2. Get the API Key

Go to this page and get the API key - Get API Key.

Then we insert the given API key into HTML instead of words "YOUR_API_KEY":

To get longitude and latitude, you need to be in the right place google maps right-click and then click "What's here?" Below you will see a pop-up window where longitude and latitude will be indicated. You need to transfer them to this file.

JAVASCRIPT CODE

Just by changing the values, experiment and find the kind of card that suits you.

1) We drive the cat away and take a sheet of drawing paper (it's good when it's not just a Whatman paper, but paper with some kind of texture, for example, watercolor).

2) To make it convenient for us to draw, and the pictures are even and not warped, we stretch the paper onto the tablet. To do this, we soak it well with water, put it on the tablet and smooth it so that no air bubbles remain.

3) We bend the edges of the paper and glue them to the tablet with PVA glue, Moment-crystal or Titanium. First we glue one side, then the opposite side (pulling slightly). Then, in turn, glue the two remaining sides.

4) Gently fold the corners and glue them too.

5) The tablet is stretched and now it needs to be tinted in a pleasant shade of old parchment.

6) To do this, we go to the bathroom, so as not to dilute the dirt on the desktop. Again we drive out the cat, which managed to get over there and is numb on the warm floor.

7) Dilute a concentrated coffee solution in any container. The cheaper the coffee, the better (there is more dye)))

8) We can take a sponge and gently blot all the paper with coffee, but we are real artists, so we just splash the coffee on the paper and spread it with our hands. Doctor, in this spot I see ...

9) The paper on the tablet will go in small waves, but do not worry about this - after drying, they will be smoothed out. Our coffee can flow into these waves, so from time to time you need to tilt the tablet in different directions, dispersing these puddles.

10) I was too lazy to do this, so the coffee dried out with drips. Sometimes they are even beautiful, but this time I don't need them and I smear them with a wet piece of cotton wool.

11) Haha! then we draw the tablet into rectangles (I chose the size 85x125 mm) and draw maps (for example, you can take real maps and draw from them, you still won't succeed in the same way and will have your own author's interpretation!) First, the most difficult thing is the pictures. We draw with black ink and pen, paint with pencils (or paints, as you like). With a white pencil, you can highlight some areas a little (it looks very advantageous on tinted paper). Draw freely and calmly, do not hesitate if it seems to you that you are drawing some kind of nonsense. Believe that neatly done, flat cards will look good with ANY pictures, if only the king can be distinguished from the lady))) Although in this case there is a letter designation in the corner of the card.

12) In order not to suffer with the second half of the cards - I photographed them and printed them out. Next, we transfer them to the tablet in a known way: shade the reverse side of the picture with a soft pencil, and outline it with a pen on top. A print is left from the pencil.

13) To make it more effective, draw a gold stroke around the edge of the card (with acrylic paint, marker or gel pen). We MUST fix the pencil drawing with a special spray varnish.

14) After the varnish has completely dried, cut off the paper from the tablet.

15) And the sheet turns out to be perfectly flat!

16) Again we stretch the tablet, we need to draw cards with numbers. I am sure that you have never paid attention to how the suit icons are located in tens-eights-sixes and other small fry))) We are studying this issue, drawing schemes for memory.

17) We create a kind of modular grid to help ourselves. By the way, here all the peaks are drawn in the same direction and this is a mistake. One half of the peak should be turned in the opposite direction (crosses and worms too, but tambourines are all the same, they are symmetrical))).

18) Again we take out the black and (mmmmm!) - warm red carmine ink and draw all the digital maps.

19) Next, using a knife and an iron ruler, we separate all the cards from each other. No matter how we measure, they will not work perfectly even, do not strive for this.

20) For a card shirt, you can either draw a picture (then scan and reproduce it) or find a suitable one on the Internet. I found a suitable picture in the patterns on the wallpaper of my kitchen)))

21) We print it on a printer in the amount of 36 pieces (four pieces fit on a sheet).

22) The size of the shirt should be slightly larger than the card itself - this way we can better glue the edges. Convenient to glue with a glue stick. But it is better to take glue of a more expensive company, so that over time the glue does not dry out and the backs of your cards do not fly around like autumn leaves. Then cut off the excess edges with scissors, at the same time rounding the corners of the cards.

23) ALWAYS put our cards under the press. It is desirable for the whole night.

This is one of several drawing tutorials geographic maps that I am creating for an amazing group that I am helping to develop.

If you used this lesson, tell me, show me, I would love to see what you did! And feel free to ask questions too!

For this tutorial you will need a font. Booter Zero Five(see the link at the end of the lesson).

This map making tutorial assumes (invented) maps that look more like fantasy or pirate maps. They have no environmental elements. If you want to create a map for your world / just like that / or for something else, you will receive it, in just one hour of work!

Before you start ... you need Photoshop, a map file and a font (see the link at the end of the tutorial). It would also be nice to have a scanned photo of some landscape on your computer that you would like to depict. I used Photoshop CS3 Extended to create my map. I also used brushes for some of the work steps.

STEP 1

Take a close look at this screenshot. Don't forget to Save as ... and create a background layer.

STEP 2

Click on the picture to see the image in full size and 100% quality.

If you have a sketch, scan it or open a photo. Open it in a separate PS file, increase its brightness if necessary (Image - Correction - Brightness / Contrast) (Image - Adjustments - Brighten / Contrast). Insert the image by dragging and dropping it onto the map file. You can resize the image in two ways: either by clicking Edit - Transform - Resize (Edit - Transform - Scale), or holding the SHIFT key, pull the diagonal arrows that appear at the corners of the image.

STEP 3

Regardless of whether you imported the image or not, create a new layer on top of the Map layer, grab a brush and start painting your landscape. Better to make it slightly larger than the image itself.

STEP 4

After completing the sketch, grab the Eraser and go over the outer edges of the sketch. They will be crooked and out of bounds, so you will need to walk along these lines several times to clean everything up. If you want to make islands, do them now.

STEP 5

Click on the picture to see the image in full size and 100% quality.

Now you can grab the quick selection tool and select everything outside of your landmass. After that, we start to wash even more; no continent or country is perfectly straight, round or angular. Let's add debris, depressions and cracks all over our map! = P Also, add some non-ideal rivers and lakes. Your people will definitely need water to survive!

STEP 6

Click on the picture to see the image in full size and 100% quality.

Population! Open the Cities group, and make the Capitol ... or rather the Capital (capital turned into capitol by mistake) and the town visible. The capital is circled in red. You will probably have more than one settlement / city / village / etc., And here's how to duplicate them: click the second mouse button on the layer with the town (town) and select Duplicate layer / Duplicate layer in the list that will appear. New town will appear on top of your original city. Remember this for the next step!

STEP 7

Open the landscape group. You have a choice of more realistic and freehand-like objects. To keep the picture from looking ridiculous, use only one of these styles. You can place these objects wherever you want, you can also duplicate (multiply) them. When you "plant" trees on your site, place mountains, rocks and forests, consider environment if you haven't already. Civilization and vegetation, for example, usually appear where there are water sources. If you need to resize something, use the technique described in STEP 2.

STEP 8

Click on the picture to see the image in full size and 100% quality.

Open the Text group. It contains the following layers: river / forest name, town name, and continent name. You can use a wider variety of fonts (eg Calibri for forest names, Juice for country names, etc.). The easiest way to make the font fit in is to create a duplicate original text, and change its font. Next, play with the effects. In this case, the outer glow and drop shadow look very good here. Don't forget to give names to all worlds, continents, countries, regions, states, villages, settlements, cities, capitals, oceans, rivers, lakes, mountains and plains. You don't have to name every detail on the map, but it will hurt your eyes.

And you're done! WOW! Well, at least not unless you really want to make your card something one of a kind. If you still want to ...

ACCESS TO A NEW LEVEL IS OPEN !!

Scroll down to see the most interesting, but completely optional, effects you can apply to your map.

SUPER DRUPER EFFECTS

The following is optional, but it contains some information to help you improve your map.

Card Paper

If you want more focus and texture on your map, you can change the background! First, create a new layer on top of the map layer. Take a brush, pick white, and go. Personally, I like scattering brushes for this business, but you can use any other, for example, with coins, ships, animals, plants, etc.

Take a look at the screenshot below, where you can see the changes after brushing. If you are using a scattering brush (or any other brushes with unusual patterns), paint over the entire surface of the map with it so that there are no empty spaces.

Add Brightness

Is your map not bright enough for you? Click Image - Adjustments and you will be presented with the following options: Hue / Saturation, Brightness / Contrast and Curves, which are the best adjustment options for our map. Go ahead and experiment! Please note the difference between this screenshot and the one above. Thanks to the Brightness / Contrast correction.

Direction Arrows

No decent map is complete without a compass!

Place the compass layer under the landscape layer group. Place it in an area where there is no sushi, resizing if necessary. I also like to add all kinds of effects to the compass. Experiment! In the screenshot you can see my favorite settings (the words highlighted with a "marker" are the names of various effects).

Click on the picture to see the image in full size and 100% quality.

Watermark - protection from paranoids (me, inclusive). Watermarks can protect your work from theft. If you have your own signature - or even if you want to use your name, e-mail, page address on dA - you can add it. Create a new layer (regular or text). All you have to do is add the watermark to a new layer, resize it and lower the Opacity, or leave it however you like. Speaking of watermarks and likes ... this whole tutorial is watermarked ... don't even bother stealing it!

Also, if you want to create paths and signs on the map to give it an ADVENTURE flavor, just add a new layer on top of the land layer, grab a paintbrush, select a color close to the map color, and paint! You can also use humorous brushes like the sea dragon on my map.

Beautiful and effective mixing of cards allows you to surprise the audience even before the start of an illusion show or game. Every trick will become even more exciting if you perform unusual actions with cards. Do you want to become a successful illusionist? Be sure to figure out how to beautifully shuffle the cards.

Faro - spectacular and interesting

New cards are required to complete the shuffle. If done correctly, a kind of frame of pictures and their beautiful drop from one hand to another .

Faro looks like a waterfall. This effect is not difficult to achieve.

Like a waterfall, the cards should shimmer, creating a disturbing picture. How to do something so difficult? As easy as pie!

You will need:

  1. Take the deck in your left hand.
  2. Hold exactly half the deck with your right hand.
  3. The two parts of the pack should be properly aligned and placed vertically, placing one on top of the other, applying light pressure.
  4. Slightly loosen the grip, after which the cards will begin to diverge.

After painstaking training, you can achieve perfection. Careful preparation will help you mix the deck quickly and in an original way, creating unusual waterfall... The main thing to remember is that the quality of the feint performance depends on the number of repetitions and your efforts.

Flipping

Flipping is a fairly simple way of mixing. At the moment of execution of the florish all fingers involved ... The stack should be well fixed. Stirring by swiping looks extraordinary. So it is possible to mix the stack not only before the start of the focus, but also before the usual ones.


All fingers must be used to flip

Would you like to learn a new way? Repeat each step:

  • Use your right thumb to split the bundle in half.
  • Flip through both sides effectively so that the cards lay on top of one another. Pictures from both packs should flash alternately.
  • Bend the bundle into a "C" shape and loosen your fingers. This simple movement will allow the cards to easily enter a new pile.

For a successful florish better to take a new pack. Cards in good condition lend themselves easily to various tricks. Old cards are not malleable enough to do the shuffling nicely and easily.

Beautiful volt

Volts is a special shuffling method based on the high-speed movement of individual stacks of the deck in your hands. Volt from the side looks like juggling... It looks very good, but it's easy enough to learn.

Volt is similar to juggling, but much easier to implement

What do we have to do:

  • The stack here will need to be divided into three roughly equal parts .
  • Hold the bundle in your left hand with three fingers for the parts that are shorter - the large one on the outer edge, the middle and forefinger - on the inner.
  • Then, with your index finger, you raise a third of the cards, take them to the side.
  • The index left is fixed on the outer edge of this half, on the inner edge you put the same finger with the right and lead it in the opposite direction from the handle.
  • The foot rotates on two fingers, rotates 180 degrees and falls into the right handle.
  • Further from what's left you bend your index part, holding it with a large .
  • Put your right thumb on the outside and twist the half on the two thumbs.
  • And then place your right index finger next to your left thumb and twist the last part on two fingers in the same way.

The most important thing in volts is speed of movement. Of course, you won't be able to do it right away. Most likely, you will have to spend more than one day to make the feint look beautiful, although it all depends on your efforts.

It is worth noting that if the two previous methods really mix the cards well, then the volt is more likely aimed at making an impression on others. You are unlikely to succeed in stirring the deck qualitatively in this way.

All three are the simplest shuffle methods... There are really many effective ways to interfere with cards. Train your fingers, develop dexterity, and then any method will become subject to you.

Video tutorials will help to teach you how to shuffle cards beautifully:

Good afternoon everyone. Today I got up and since I haven't written anything for a long time, I decided to write an article in which I want to talk about the methods of shuffling cards.

Players who play simple games at home may not even wonder how to shuffle the cards, because they usually shuffle in the classical way and this is enough for them.

Let me remind you that the classic shuffle is when the deck is in the left hand, and the right hand picks it up and begins to move up and down, periodically dropping small piles in the left hand. While shuffling in the classical way, such tricks are used as jogging, injog, and peeling. This method is common at home among people who play folk games like "", "Drunkard", etc. Although those who like to play poker at home buy shuffle machines for themselves.

All ways to shuffle cards

What is shuffle?

Shuffle - translated from of English language means shuffling or shuffling. That is, in fact, this is any action aimed at shuffling cards before the start of the game.

There are several types of shuffle - overhand, riffle, faro, strip, chemmie, weiss and Indian shuffle.

Overhand Shuffle (Classic shuffle) - this is the usual shuffling of the deck, when the piles are simply thrown from one hand to another.

(Faro Shuffle) - the shuffling of cards is perfect and fast, because the cards are mixed one after one. This shuffle appeared thanks to the game of the same name. In this game, it was necessary to collect paired cards, and after the next round they had to be broken. Faro was best suited for this.

(Riffle Shuffle) - This method is also called the "American method" of shuffling, Riffle, Tie-in. It is performed either in the hands or on the table. The shuffling is fast and the cards mix well with each other.

(Strip Shuffle) - a method of block shuffling of the deck. In this type of shuffling, the deck is shuffled in blocks. From 3 and up.

(Chemmy Shuffle) - during such a shuffle, the cards are shuffled randomly. The deck is usually laid out on the table either with a ribbon in two rows, or in the form of the letter "M", or the deck is cut in half, and the packs are placed next to each other and begin to twist, after which the packs are also mixed in a chaotic manner.

There is also a kind of shuffling. It is called . The essence of the shuffle is that the cards are also mixed block by block, and they are mixed block by block in the hands, unlike the Strip Shuffle, where they are shuffled on the table.

Vice Shuffle - shuffle invented by the famous Daniel Madison. Not for a beginner.

What after the cards are shuffled?

After the completion of the shuffle, the deck must be leveled by the shuffler (dealer) and trimmed. At home, this is usually done by the player to the left of the dealer. In the casino, there is a cut card for this. It is usually red or yellow, but security experts say it is best to use a black trim card.

They are convinced that when good eyesight and with proper lighting, through the yellow or red map, you can see the map adjacent to the undercut.

A cut card is placed under the deck so that the bottom card does not light up, and also serves to divide the deck. In fact, this is the same card, the same size as the cards from the deck, but it is not played with it.

After the procedure with a trim card, the cards are placed in the "shoe". This is such a special device for distributing cards. From there, cards are dealt during the game. The played ones are added to the side. As soon as the scoring card appears from the “shoe”, the cards are mixed again.

In the casino, special shuffle machines are used to shuffle cards. They automatically shuffle the deck, thereby completely eliminating the interference of crooks in this process.

Well, that's all friends. I hope the article "How to Shuffle Cards" will be useful to you.

Sincerely,
