Default stamped card kids class

I am activity leader for 8-12 year old girls for our church. I would like to show them card making and make a simple card with them. Is there any place that has the dimensions for the card kits that demostrators have ready at the make and takes? I am just looking for easy dimensions to create 16 make and take things. NE1 help?

Thanks

I make cards with the kids in my 4-H club a couple of times a year. I usually modify a design that I have seen at an SU workshop (I just became a demo this week) or from the card gallery here at SCS. I just start trying things until I get something that's easy, cute and may or may not resemble the origional. Whatever you do, the kids will be thrilled.
My best advice is don't get too complicated. I have tried embossing with them but I would not start that way. 2 cards in an hour and a half is probably enough. My best experience recently was when I pre cut and stamped everything. The kids just have to put it together however they choose. It went very well and was stress free for me, other than the work to get the kits made.
Good luck!
