As a color-blind amateur game designer with negative artistic skills, I sometimes have a hard time picking colors for printing on cards and other game components, getting colors that are too similar or not the color I thought they were. So, I created a set of 12 cards, each depicting 8 colors with their RGB values. RGB because I'm usually using JPG or PNG for image files, and because I use nanDeck for card creation, which also uses RGB values.
This zip file contains all 12 cards. Print them on your own printer and you will have a handy reference for what these 96 colors look like in print. I also uploaded them to Artscow, so you can order a set from there if you want to have an Artscow RGB color reference. I intend to order 2 of each card to facilitate comparing any set of colors.

The hex RGB values are written in normal (first octet), italic (second octet) and bold (third octet), 14 point. The "friendly name" of the colors are in 6 point; these names and values were taken from:
