Photoshop is very much my friend.  I'm very familiar with the softward and 
all I really had to do to get a useable canvas (read Fluxx Blanks) was scan 
a blank in and save it.  From there, I gathered all manner of images from 
internet searches, pasted them in, adjusted everything to look as uniform as 
possible, and then printed them onto off.  Ideally I would have laminated 
the card after printing to extend a deck's lifespan, but I finished the 
printing about half an hour before I was to teach the lesson, so I opted to 
do lamination later when I had more time.

I was hoping to find a font that was a little better than the one I used, 
but I think it looks pretty close to what is used on a regular Fluxx deck.  
I tried to make a very distinct but subtle varience from a regular Fluxx 
deck in that I didn't but the names of the cards on the side of the card in 
all caps.  I figured this could help the students tell between cards in the 
different decks.
