Is there like a template I need to download. Do I have to use microsof

Business cards (like most Avery products) are considered "labels." Go to
Tools | Letters and Mailings | Envelopes and Labels. On the Labels tab,
click Options. You will probably find that "Avery standard" is already
selected for "Label products"; if not, select it. In the "Product number"
box, scroll down to 8371 and select it. Click OK to close the Options dialog
and click New Document to close the Envelopes and Labels dialog. The new
document thus created is formatted as a table, so be sure you have table
gridlines displayed (Table | Show Gridlines) so you can see the card
boundaries.

Oh, I missed that. It is *much* easier to do this in Publisher. Select
Business Card as the publication size and change the number per page to 10;
you'll get the required margins automatically.
