What size card to you make most?

[mommy to b and p]

I am just curious if you have a standard size that you make most of the time? I also wonder if you do, do you keep a bunch of card bases to get started when you are ready to make cards??

[Knutsen24]

I usually make a standard A2 (at least I think that's what it called!) card which is just an 8.5x11 piece of paper cut in half and then folded. I don't like to keep cardbases on hand because the color depends on what type of card that I feel like making at the time. I also do different sized cards from time to time.

I, too, typically stick to 4.25 x 5.5. I don't keep card bases per se, but since each full sheet of cardstock gives me two bases, I try not to cut the second one. I usually make two cards with the same color base or I'll add the other sheet to a small stack of half sheets that I keep. I don't usually have very many at a time. And I tend to reach for those first and plan my color combo around it.

Same here. Every so often I'd do the 4.25x4.25. It's so cute at that size. When there's a challenge I'll do something different but mostly the standard or the 4.25x4.25.

I usually make my cards in an A2 size, but I really like the 4BAR size as well. That one measures 3 1/2 x 4 7/8. It's really nice for short notes and it doesn't hurt that it's a super cute size.

I usually make 4bar and 4.25" square - love them!

1. Most common A2 (4 1/4 x 5 1/2)
2. Close second 3x3

[curias]

I also make 4 1/4"x5 1/2", plus a lot of 3"x3" cards!

I just started making 3 x 3 and I love those, they are so cute. But I mostly do the standard half sheet of paper.

[AmberDawn]

A2 and 4.25x4.25 -- Those are my favorite!!!

[MnM]

I make alot of 4x9 and 5x7 cards.

[wendalyn]

Normally A2 or 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 ones

[RJP111]

A2 or 3x3.

[greetingsbydebra]

Lately I've been very into 3 x 6" cards. You can also get a 4.25" square card AND a 2.5 x 3" love note out of an 8.5 x 11" sheet.

[lwhelan]

4.25x5.5!

[ebeart]

Standard A2. I think anything else throws me off when I go to get or make a envie.

For those of you that do the different sizes (like 3x3 etc) do you have to pay extra postage to mail it?

I do the standard A2 but I have been inspired to do a 4.25x4.25 for my next one.

And where do you get the envelopes for 3x3, I'd like to make some notecards I think. I normally make A2.
