Trading Card

[tiny bubbles]

I'm not sure if this really goes here, but I'm looking for a pattern for the most efficient way to cut trading cards from an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of cardstock. TIA!

This is the template that I used and it worked great.

This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

I thought trading cards were the size of a sheet of paper cut up 8 times - each quarter sheet cut in half. :oops: Are there two sizes?

I only know about the ones that are 3.5 x 2.5. Like baseball trading cards or pokemon cards or any other trading card that is popular and fits into a sheet protector for trading cards.
The link posted above is the pattern that I used to cut mine for a Tc swap.

The 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 is what is considered a trading card. They are the same size a baseball, pokemon, etc. I have heard the 4 1/4 x 2 3/4 (eighth of a sheet) cards being called "mini cards".
