Design a split card, or two or more separate but related cards, using art from the cards below.

The art is deliberately cartoony (albeit questionable) to hopefully support multiple interpretations.

As an example, I made: Offense // Defence

Created Wisdom // Folly. Also, I made the card a Double-Faced card so that the artwork was the right size. It's a split card, though, not a DFC. Otherwise, I would have gone back and added flavor text. ;)

­Frank // Beans

I took the liberty of saving, resizing & reuploading the art. I hadn't actually realised that on normal cards including DFCs, the art is fitted widthwise but cropped vertically, but on split cards the art is squashed both widthwise and lengthwise.

You had to choose to provide exactly 10 pieces of art, didn't you? That made me want to make 5 split cards, using each piece of art once. But split cards are famously constrained by their names. I've spent rather longer on this than I should have done, but behold:

­Bark // Bite
­Dungeons // Dragons
­Duck // Cover
­Risk // Reward
­Fire // Rescue

And I know, they're not colour balanced. Making a neat symmetrical cycle of five split cards where all the art was drawn from those ten was a bit too much of a challenge even for me.

LOL. Wow, those are awesome. I was scared none of them would work as a split card; I'm really impressed you found five pairs that worked really well, even if you had to fudge a little on the mechanics sometimes. I can't believe I didn't think of dungeons and dragons :)
