Samples of bleeds

A bleed is defined as ink going to the edge of the card and "bleeding" off.
A bleed should always extend past the trim size (page size) by 1/8". Failure to do so will result in a white edge. The samples below show the artwork as it would look after the bleed had been trimmed off.
