My sister and I used to make our own cards by chopping others to pieces. Kinda makes me cringe now but it's the best card in my collection.
Other than this, I found a shining gyarados and mewtwo that I'm excited to grade just to keep. Also ended up having 1/3 of neo destiny and about half of base set and jungle so I might try to finish those. I didn't realize this was an inflated time to get into the hobby so hopefully filling out those sets won't be too hard.
