I think you need to be more explicit about what you want to do.
Are we talking Gambit w/ explosive cards on a delay?
A rigged bomb for when the target pulls it out? Or that you trigger?
Does the card need to pass as a playing card one might slide out from a deck into their pocket?
As Mathmuse noted, Plant Evidence works for "trapping" them with a card as if maybe the target had been cheating at poker (or its Golarion equivalent), but unless you're inventing a new magic or alchemical item, I don't think there's a way to trap small objects except Glyph of Warding.
The trouble with GoW is the object would have to be a container, not a card.
So yeah, if you're a GM, make a specific item for this.
If a player, it's a bit too convoluted to work. Most damage is more direct and immediate.
Unless the trap can be more subtle, in which case you could use a contact poison for when they pull it out. Or a sharpened edge for an injury poison (though that scheme's iffy).

The ideal trap on a card would be the 3rd-level Pathfinder 1st Edition spell Explosive Runes or the more obscure 1st-level variant Incendiary Runes. The target pulls the cards out of his pocket, reads the rune, and it blows up in his face.
Alas, Explosive Runes and Incendiary Runes have not yet been ported to Pathfinder 2nd Edition.

Or be ten feet on a side, which doesn't exactly fit easily into the pocket :P
