Many people like these cards which are simple to make and very effective. This is how to make one in Design Master - but remember the idea is the same whichever program you use:
make your word - weld it then either:
duplicate your word, flip it and weld - this way you get a card where both the back and front are the same word
or
make a mat for your word and weld that to a rectangle ( as in the tutorial), your original word can then be cut in contrasting paper or card.
Try and see- obviously this works for letters, words, dingbats and combinations - play around and see what you can do, change the sizes of the letters and weld different sizes together, use a side fold instead of a top fold etc. Don't be afraid to experiment.
Have fun
