Trying to turn Re-ment pictures into Yes! cards

Back in the 90's I was super crazy about collecting Yes! cards from Hong Kong. They were almost the size of baseball cards w/ rounded corners. Each card would feature mostly Hong Kong celebrities on it. The cost was $0.25 per random card if purchased from the Yes! Card dispensers. Otherwise, the price can range anywhere from $0.50 to several dollars if you would like to select a specific card from the shops. I've sold most of my Yes! cards several years ago but I still kept the ones w/ Vivian Chow. There stored somewhere.....

I usually use Picnik to edit my pictures, usually just cropping and adjusting the brightness. Then I discovered that you can round the edges of each image so I though it might be really cool to turn my toy pics into Yes! cards. Played around with 2 pics but both pics are sized differently. The Mickey Mouse steamed pork bun and the ramen bowl are actually key chain charms. I purposely cropped out the key chain tabs so they blend in better with the miniatures.
