Custom Shaped Playing Cards are some of the most unique playing cards we have ever made.  One of my favorites is the chicken leg shaped playing card shown here.

One of the more common special shapes is a circle – and I particularly enjoyed the pizza shaped playing cards we created for a client.

One of our favorites is the  Hexagon Shaped playing cards.

I would like to say the sky is the limit when it comes to card like this – but we need to review all proposed shapes first with the plant to make sure they can work.
