Best. Business Cards. Ever.
Designing business cards can be a headache. The ones that look minimalist and artsy often tell you nothing about the company. Cluttered, TMI (too much information) business cards look like a trifold designed for ants.
36 Cool Business Cards You Should’ve Seen (and the earlier 27 Creative Business Cards You Should’ve Seen) are indeed must-sees if you’re designing business cards. Items like these may cost more at the printer, but they really make cards pop:
- Die cutting a shape out of the card (cute on a restaurant card with a “bite” shape)
- Embossing to add a 3-D element
- Cardstock alternatives, like transparent plastic or metal
- Handmade or recycled papers
- Elaborate artwork and photography
- Fold-out cards that allow plenty of space for information
- Non-rectangular cards with custom shapes
