Need Help & Sample File For Namecard And Letterhead

Q: I'm into learning Adobe applications. I would like to create a name card and letterhead for myself to practice. Below are some queries.. Q1. May I know what's the ideal or productive way to create name card and letterhead? Can someone elaborate me the Professional best practice. Q2. Is it best to do in Photoshop, Illustrator or Pagemaker? Q3. How to start off the creation, I mean to create what size, what resolution, what's the right approach? Q4. Can someone send me a sample namecard and letterhead layout to start off? I'm using IL ver9 & PS6.

A: For letterheads and business cards, I design the logo in Photoshop or Freehand (similar to Illustrator). I do the page/card layout in Freehand. Business cards are 3.5x2" (in the US), letterhead paper is 8.5x11". I use 300 dpi resolution in any tif-s on the page.
