Create-A-Card Competition!

PokéCommunity Create-A-Card Competition

This is PokéCommunity's first official Create-A-Card Competition! There are two categories you can enter, those being the Graphics-Based and Text-Based categories. You can even enter both if you wish! No previous experience necessary! You will have 2 weeks from the competition start to design a fake card for the category/categories you have entered and post them in this thread. After that, you have 1 week to submit your votes to the host (in this case, that's me) via PM, using the following ballot:

Graphics-Based:
1.
2. (optional)
3. (optional)

Text-Based:
1.
2. (optional)
3. (optional)

Now to lay down some rules:

• You may not vote for yourself.
• You must submit a vote or you will be disqualified.
• If a card has any visual component other than text, it must be submitted in the Graphics-Based category!
• The card must be created by you. We staff members are not fools and can easily use reverse image searching to find out if you stole the card image from elsewhere.
• Fake card generators are allowed for use, but you still must have created some aspect of the card other than just throwing it all together.
• You may vote even if you are not participating in the competition!

Important Dates:

July 22, 2013: Contest start date!
August 6, 2013 11:59 PM GMT -6: End of submission period.
August 7, 2013 12:00 AM GMT -6: Start of voting period!
August 12, 2013, 11:59 PM GMT -6: End of voting period!

First entry!

I know it isn't a reprint, but I prefer gold frames over silver ones.

Part of the bottom of my drawing got cut off, but the random green thing is seaweed and there is a Staryu resting on a rock to the right.
...maybe I should've entered the text-based competition :)

Thanks Fenneking for the link!
