Creating business cards the easy way (Linux)

Last year I needed some new business cards. Although I’m pretty computer savvy I could never get the right size of business cards while doing them at home, they always end up too big or even in different sizes. 
So, I just went to a store to get them done.
But, for Linux (Gnome specifically speaking) there is a program that’ll help in a great way getting my next cards ready. gLabels makes the job easier to create labels and business cards by having just the right size ready. So, you create design for one card and it’ll print out a nice sheet full of your business cards (or labels).
So, you’ll worry about the design while it helps with the visual formatting.
There is probably a very easy way to do this also in OpenOffice or maybe even in Gimp. But, so far I haven’t found anything. Ideas?
Linux always had a way to make things easier for you without asking too many questions, it’s also much safer and you don’t need internet security software if you’re running Linux.I made some great cd covers in openoffice and with business cards i didn’t tried but i’m sure that you can make them in the same program.Search some tutorials on the internet maybe you’ll find what you need.
Thank you for providing this interesting and useful article.I am using Linux for some years and I am very satisfied of it.It is a great operating system and is safer than others.I’ve used the business cards application and I had great results.
