From the research I did online it appears that recipe cards are a way of jotting down your favourite recipes to either keep them or pass them onto a friend. They could be seen as a social tool. Online they seem to be mostly blank cards for you to fill in and pass on.
I did find a pack of cards online for Tagines which was a whle deck of cards dedicated to different Tagine recipes. Here is what one of the customer reviews said:
"The recipes are well-written and easy to follow and the results tasty. I thought cards would be easy to use and they are, but it's hard to find the recipe you want because the cards are not numbered - indexing or colour-coding the sections would make it easier. So I wouldn't particularly recommend recipe cards, I'd go for a conventional book next time."
This falls inline with the other recipe/cooking cards that I found being sold online. Most merely explain the recipes, ingredients and quantities. We need to integrate our cards into a cooking system that can adapt to what you have at your disposal.
I also found this kids recipe card deck selling on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Kids-Kitchen-Cooking-Card-Deck/dp/1846861764
Although this is based at kids it divides foods into groups using colour coding and food groups. I feel that there are going to be similar things out there at the moment but we need to have a USP (Unique Selling Point) in order to ensure we are doing something brand new.
