I unfortunately didn't have enough characters to put in the last line on the bottom left

Most likely my final card... these things are a pain to get the spacing right with.

One more entry?
To begin, an honourable mention: @Fantastickill7's Wandering Knight. The concept and flavor of the card feel good, but it was let down by the fact that both Adventure and creature feel somewhat underpowered for their costs and rarity, and how it feels like such a flavor miss that it's a Knight finding food rather than a creature type like Scout or Peasant. The latter might have needed slightly different art, admittedly, but Eldraine's Knight cards never had any direct association with food (one or two had indirect ones). Ah, I don't know.
Regardless, you win 1/4 of a Circuit Point (unless you have another entry that ends up placing higher in the custom frame category, in which case that Circuit Point score will override this one) and a favorite on the card.
Now, on to the podium. In third place is @shadow123 and their entry of Boneyard Explorer. The concept is a good one and nicely executed, and the card just generally feels like something that might have seen print in Throne of Eldraine.
You win favorites on your entry and one other card of your choice along with 1/2 of a Circuit Point (unless you do better in another category, as stated before).
Second place goes to Stampede Vanguard, made by @Faiths_Guide. Deciding which of the categories this actually fitted into was something that I had to put a lot of thought into, but I decided that it belonged here as a variant on level up in the end and also because I'm disorganised and forgot about trying to establish which one it was supposed to be for immediately. The idea of re-purposing level up style frames for other types of counter is one that I like a lot, and the overall flavor of the card is fantastic.
You win favorites on Stampede Vanguard and two other cards of your choice, along with 3/4 of a Circuit Point.
And finally, in first place...
is...
Tales of Heroes by @TheCenterOfTheUniverse!
The way in which this card works is just generally wonderful. The balance seems good, the interactions between abilities are well thought-out, the idea of an additional passive on a Saga card is nice, and the flavor of the little 1/1 "hero" beginning the journey, growing in skill and finally going forth to do battle against the foe is wonderful.
You win a favorite on Tales of Heroes, along with favorites on four other cards of your choice. You also win one Circuit Point. Congratulations!
Thank you to everybody who entered this category! If you want a slightly more detailed explanation of why your card did / didn't get where you hoped it would, feel free to either send me a direct message on the subject or just ask about it here. Thanks again, and I'll try to get the custom frame results up as soon as possible!
