you can do both.

do the usual resume, then attach your portfolio to the resume.

be conscious of bulk and style. it cannot be bulky that it's hard to manage. it will only irritate the person handling it and might throw it away.

make sure the style is of great appeal. don't just do anything. think it through. imagine the person handling your resume and attachment and make sure the design is fitting.

some do blogs as well also. do a blog, upload your work and also give the link to the companies you are applying to,
