INSTRUCTIONS: Download the .PDF file in the link after each card title. Print the front page on the white card paper that fits on your printer by telling Adobe Reader to just print the first page on the printing menu. Flip your paper on the printer paper tray once the cover is done, then tell it to print the second page, be sure to check the side your printer releases the paper so you don’t screw each side of the card.
Once this is done, you’ll need a ruler, a cutter, and a surface to scratch. Align the ruler using the cross marks printed on the edges of each side of the card, cut from side to side. If you have problem with cutters, you can trace a line with a pencil from point to point and use scissors too! There is some space bleed on the print so you won’t miss. And that’s it! Enjoy your cards!
