[@bandclyrics8144]

[@keelywright-ogren2736]

This was so helpful! Thank you so much!!

[@pinkcharms]

What paper do you use to print your cards? Thx for the tutorial!!

[@n8sgr8adventure]

This is Fantastic! Just one query the links aren't working for some reason to your website. Thanks!

[@ronronrevolution5248]

Thank you Teela! You saved the day. :)

[@ramukumbha4996]

Really Nice Work

[@traao5606]

this is extremely helpful, thank you so much!

[@EveryTuesday]

Trà Đào awesome :) Thanks for watching!

[@kabeshdarlyon1814]

YOU ARE SO AMAZING!!!

[@ashleyscott8130]

Thanks, Teela! Question though: when you lasso select the trim marks, how do you make it so that you don't select the guide lines also? I have to select it all, then shift + click each guide line so that I don't copy and drag them as well.

[@EveryTuesday]

Hey Ashley! You'll just need to lock your guides to avoid selecting them - go view > guides > lock guides :)

[@Nic-xu9pu]

Thanks Teela!

[@DominusFeles]

I really like Teelas tutorials but I'm still waiting for the day when US joins the metric system (their military and some other areas is already there). Seriously, "half of an quarter of an inch" that's also our standard bleed but we call it 3mm. ^^

[@EveryTuesday]

Gustav Holmström haha I hear you! Can't help what I grew up with/what I'm surrounded by every day. I hate that I can't think in metric enough to do it on the fly - I'll make an effort to come more prepared with my measurements - thanks for the 3mm head's up!

[@DominusFeles]

Teela Cunningham I certainly can't do inches, yards and feet on the fly either (not that I have to too often) but when I need it; google has a pretty handy built in conversion function :)

[@fairpearart]

I REALLY appreciate you thank u!!

[@cassandrasmith1417]

thank you soooooo much for this. 💜

[@johnreid9673]

This method works but try with transformation and distribution tool. It's much easier and quicker.

[@MinhNguyen-zr3mn]

Thank you. Keep it going! Best.

[@bismillah_brush]

Not able to find this template... instead watercolor texture sheet is available there

[@biancagurgel9239]

Thank you, Teela!

[@amilaperera951]

Thank you! this helped me :)

[@amandagroney9279]

Loved the tutorial. Quick question, I created business cards for my mom (who doesn't have Illustrator) and now, I'd like to send them to her so she can print them herself. How do you recommend doing so, i.e. would sending them as a PDF work? Or must these be printed from Illustrator?

[@JulianLovesIt]

Very helpful and thanks for the template. There is one error with the bleed-guides though :) the upper one in the third row should be on top

[@EveryTuesday]

Julian Schnaars Hey Julian - I just rechecked the template and it looks correct to me - can you be more specific?

[@JulianLovesIt]

Teela Cunningham Sure, if you look at the third row, you have the horizontal cutting line for the top of the card and the guide for bleeding. The cutting line is right, but the guide for bleeding is below the cutting line. Should be on top right? :)

[@WhiteyGraphics]

Julian Schnaars is correct the third row of cards the top bleed is inside the crop mark and all the others are outside. Crop being you little tick marks on the sides and top.

[@EveryTuesday]

WhiteyGraphics Julian Schnaars File has been updated, thanks so much for your close eyes!

[@MrAlbertodelacruz]

Thanks, it helped a lots

[@mamapod2]

thanks for the file. this will be very useful.

[@Gutsu]

[@EveryTuesday]

+kseniAlivalife thanks for watching!

[@karenhilsinger8737]

how would i do this to make a silver metallic texture?

[@sanjeevchandrasekaran2315]

Print it and then do silver lamination.

[@emoshoes333]

you saved my life tonight lol

[@tolivich]

How do you save this file for print??

[@kellyjy5000]

Thank you for the tutorial that just made my life easier ;-;

[@tt4759]

OMG thank you so much!

[@keithrincon]

I love you!

[@mariameyer1302]

you are amazing, thank you very much

[@sonyiallee7425]

Hi what printer did you use?

[@EveryTuesday]

+Sonyial Lee For at home printing, I have two printers - one's a basic, standard paper size printer/scanner combo: amzn.to/1mEu9nO and the other is a little fancier (and my favorite) medium format printer: amzn.to/1mEug2R

[@marijhorn]

to make trim marks you have tool in illustrator now.

[@FunDumb]

This is all fine and dandy but if you're ever in a rush to print I would skip the lines and just use Step and Repeat to populate the page. Then you only have to link once and repeat the Step and Repeat.

[@emanuelornelas1819]

ok this was awesome!! would be great to have a you created. would make it so much easier lol like with a download, that might be considered a bonus. MAN wouldn't that be awesome *cough cough* *hint hint*

[@aaa-rip]

why you convert to jpg? why don't print all in vectors? better quality

[@martinthumbi7335]

wow! Be blessed

[@lexracquel7708]

Anyone watching know how to properly cut these out? I have tried several different ways and keep cutting my lines off. I'm guessing I have to get out a pencil and ruler?

[@frozenpancakes]

Thank you

[@MrOzzy241]

Thanks so much yes you are an angel :)

[@GaborCsergo]

Good tutorial but you dropped the 3rd row bleed line in the wrong position ;)

[@erikalevy1]

Thank you!

[@EveryTuesday]

Erika Levy thanks for watching!

[@wonkim593]

Thank you so much...

[@EveryTuesday]

+Won Kim thanks for watching!

[@theterrible6666]

There's got to be a faster way to do this, like in CorelDraw with print preview, there's got to be something similar in illustrator, this just takes to much time....

[@edwickson]

Agree. I'm looking for that kind of tutorial. Is there any?

[@davidtube1492]

Thanks a lot!!

[@Crismoseswaweru]

thanks a lot

[@klaassmit2567]

so i just took an whole hour trying to copy her and at the end she just gives it?! bamboozled boi

[@markartist7014]

thank you :)

[@amdiata]

Do u kno that you come to save a live :)

[@ferdinandtugano]

i can fit 10 cards in there. no bleeding. you dont really need it

[@Amanda-co1tj]

if you use the masking tool you would not have that design running off your page

[@EveryTuesday]

The design running off the page is intentional so you'll have artwork that runs straight to the edge when trimming 👍

[@DonnDadda87]

CAN YOU MAKE ME A TEMPLATE FOR 13" X 19" PAPER? ILL PAY YOU (VENMO)

[@maia969]
