I'm making me some cards this morning and I am looking for something easy yet attractive. So I need some ideas...

Can I see your business card?

here's mine :0)

front

& back-

I like the simplicity of the back and I leave it without a UV coating on it so I can write things on it if I need to :0)

That's really good, I really like it. My guess is that you do a lot of weddings???

Ben I really like yours too but for something like that I would have to have printed for me, seems like it would take alot of ink and would need a think card stock.

Looks really good though.

Nice work Phil I like that too. You guys are making this hard for me.

Did you guy just use a picture or did you shoot the picture for the card?

Hehe yeh I wouldn't print it myself - I'd just end up with a load of soggy card! I got them printed at Vistaprint.

Yeah I've had Vistaprint print other business cards before. They do some awesome work.

Thanks so much :0) Yep, I do a lot of weddings but I probably do more portraits. The thing is that I absolutely love weddings and I generally make more money on them so that is what I show- the stuff I want to do more of!

I like this one better

but I gotta say I don't like the text running into his face. Maybe you can do something about it without reducing the size of your text? Maybe put your contact info on back instead?

I think I prefer the other one. The one mentioned already I think has too many different font sizes and seems a bit cluttered. Also the "Photography" seems squashed to me - I think people will recognise the font and know/assume it isn't normally that shape. Also I don't think it's entirely necessary to have an email address on there as well as a website? But I could be wrong on that one. I just wouldn't email someone without looking at their website first if I knew their URL, and the website should have a visible "email me" link on it anyway :)
