I spent the last days remembering photoshop, and I decided to create a card template for SE. Now, keep in mind I'm not a pro. I'm not even familiar with most capabilities of the application, but I hope some of you will find it useful.
***************** EDIT: Ignore this. That link is dead.
EDIT: To go to the post with the v1.2 of the template click here .
*****************
You can download the latest version (v1.5) here.
Keep in mind that this template still uses the old layout for the cards (shorter text space, larger health and atatck icons, ...), but it should be ok if you just want to show your ideas.
*****************
I have included only values which I found on existing cards, so if you want attack-7, you won't find it. Below, you can find in each parenthesis the values available for each type. The only thing you need to type is the name and the text/flavor.
How to create a new card
You can start from the lower layers and go upwards.
1. Add the card artwork.
2. Select the Rarity (Common, Uncommon, ...).
3. Select the card type (Hunter Ability, Human Hero - Warrior, Hero Armor, ...)
4. Select class icons (Like those on the upper right corner on the ability cards.) If a card has a 2nd icon, you'll need to move it yourselves below the top icon.
5. Select a casting cost - (Values:1-6)
6. Icons for Armor, Attack (Sword/Bow/Claw/Magic), Durability-left (Armors), Durability-right (Weapons).
7. Values for Attack/Armor/Durability. - (Values: 0-6)
8. Resource cost for hero/ally abilities. - (Values: 0-3)
9. Shadow Energy cost for hero/ally abilities. - (Values: 1-5)
10. Health Points. - (Values: 1-6, 8, 26, 27, 28, 30)
11. You can fill up to 4 lines of text or 3 lines and flavor text. Of course you can add more yourselves if you choose smaller text size.
12. Card Name.
***If a moderator think its good, he could sticky it in the card suggestion sub-forum, so the members can find it. ***

EDIT 1: A clarification: In the last image you see a ~Finish icon in the icon folder. In case you're wondering, that adds a finish to the title area when you add a class icon.
EDIT 2: You can find an example card I created here.
