Make a Business Card Template in Photoshop

This was made for my students, but you could make almost any for-print template this way. This project is specifically a full-bleed two sided business card template for a class presentation.

If you're creating a business card that you will be having printed for you by a commercial printer, follow the tutorial up until about 3:44. After that, it's specifically for my students. You would make two files like this, and save them as Front.psd and Back.psd.

The information you need to know to create a template like this is 1) your final trim size and 2) how much bleed there needs to be. 1/8" is pretty standard anymore the "safe area" for text is typically 1/8" inside your trim line. So for a standard 3.5 x 2 inch business card your measurements are:

Safe area: 3.25 x 1.25
Trim: 3.5 x 2
Bleed: 3.75 x 2.25
