Drawing A Blank?

If you ever want your own blank card for a beloved card game (say, for making a custom card, "popping the question," etc.), you can usually take an extra card from the set and rub it lightly with nail-polish remover to remove the ink.

Make sure not to be too aggressive with the amount of remover; you don't want the liquid getting on the other side of the card and wrecking it.

Of course, that destroys the card, so be certain it's one that you won't want in the future or that you have an extra of . . . or play it safe and buy another copy you're okay with destroying.
