How to make foil proxy MTG cards
Making foil proxy MTG cards is pretty fun and not super difficult! First thing you need is a transparent sticker paper. Print the card image you want on this sticker paper. Then, you need a foil MTG card you don't mind repurposing. Strip the original ink off the foil card using acetone (nail polish remover works). Once it's clean, apply your printed sticker on top of the foil card. Voila, you've got yourself a shiny proxy!

Honestly, just print the image on regular paper and slide it into a sleeve with a real foil card behind it. It's way easier and less messy than the whole acetone and sticker method. Plus, you can swap out proxies without any hassle!
I've tried both methods, and the sticker+acetone one definitely looks cooler but takes more effort. If you're just looking for functionality, go with printing and sleeving. But if you want that wow factor, take the time to make a proper foil proxy. Just be careful with the acetone!
