So, yesterday I got a call from the son of one of my mom’s co workers, asking me if I could print his business cards. So, I saw no problem and asked him to send me over the design. The email was a big one… Not what I expected from a 3.5″ x 2″ business card. He sent me a JPEG file with the design, then I checked the size: 8.5″ X 12″. I quickly I put together a JPEG for him to work with, and that’s my freebie today!
It’s a very basic guide for clients that want to design their own card: It shows them the bleed size, real size and actual design space available to avoid having type or important information cut off when cutting the cards. I did it in English and Spanish, so feel free to download both.
English Freebie:
