My
husband is a graphic designer
and one of the most common
requests he receives is for him
to make business cards. He was
recently asked to make business
cards for a local builder. He
designed some really nice cards
that looked similar to a playing
card, since the company name is
John-of-all-Trades. One side
featured a jack character
holding a variety of tools. The
reverse of the card has the
contact information. The corners
of the card are cut on a
squared-off angle to mimic the
look of a playing card and the
card stock is of the same weight
and texture as well.
Another friend of ours asked my husband to make business cards for her. She wanted to use these cards for networking and for personal purposes. He designed some really cool cards featuring a diva-type character in hot pink and purple. Our friend was so happy with the result and pleased that she decided to have him make business cards for her, that she recommended him to others as well.
In the past my husband was asked to make business cards for a local musician. He took a photo of her face and converted it to a line drawing. Then he colored it in a shade of lavender and ran the face along the side of the card. The results were very artsy and proved to be a great success. The musician was very pleased with the results and happy that she'd asked him to make business cards for her, as well.
My husband runs a small, part-time, home-based graphic design business. He recently decided to make business cards for his own business. He took photos of the surface of a tambourine and zoomed in on the grain. He used this texture as a background for the card. The results were beautiful.
There are machines that you can find located throughout malls that will make business cards for a fee. However, the results are very plain, boring and unprofessional. If business cards are needed, it's highly advised that you go to a professional to make business cards for you. You have much more control over the process and you have a much better chance of being pleased with the results. So too, it's not recommended that you try to make business cards for yourself, unless you have professional graphic design training. Business cards speak for your company when you aren't there, and represent the image that you want to project. If your business cards lack professionalism or breaks the rules of design, this will be noticed and will not project a profession image or garner respect. You are much better off paying a small fee to a professional graphic designer and having them make business cards for you.
