EZ Printing and Assembling

Flashcards and I Have - Who Has Game Cards are designed to be printed on letter-sized paper with an even white border. Cuts along the light grey dotted line(s) will produce cards with an even white border. No additional cutting is needed to achieve a uniform border.

Flashcards are designed to be printed double-sided with terms and definitions matching the same card. If access to a double-sided printer is not available, print single-sided and glue the terms and definitions together.
