Looking for somewhere that will allow me to make magic item cards, that I can then go onto to print and hand out. - Something that's not too much hassle, maybe even has standard magic items pre-generated.
Well for one this sounds like a lot of work but... just use your printer and get some card stock around the size you are needing. Make sure you use the correct template for the card stock and cut and past/fill in the needed info. Keep in mind that you can use both sides of the card stock as well. Trying to use a print house can be costly and they will not print one of each card in most cases. You might get lucky and find a small local printer that might work with you but thats a slim chance. Another option is just printing on standard paper then cutting and laminating them as you finish. Keep in mind that you can still use both sides of the paper here also. Just get the proper format/layout you want to use for given software. Want to do a cheep laminate job providing that the cards will be about the size as a business card. Just use some clear packing tape. Really though there really is no reason to go spending a bunch of money. Most who play D&D love homemade arts and crafts.
I am sorry to say I cant remember the name of the website I used, but there are places that let you print custom decks of cards. For mine, I was making custom Cards Against Humanity cards as a gift for my friends. I generated pictures of the cards using a different site, then uploaded the image in the printing website to make my deck. After that, I could order the deck to be printed and delivered.
So there are places that will do this for you, but you will have to pay for it and youll need to find the images for the cards yourself. That being said, the cards I ordered came out well and were of nice quality

Morning All,
Looking for somewhere that will allow me to make magic item cards, that I can then go onto to print and hand out. - Something that's not too much hassle, maybe even has standard magic items pre-generated.
Any suggestions for tools / sites would be ideal.
Cheers,

Thanks folks,
Printing / Laminating myself is looking like a better option, so maybe I'm just after some nice templates.
