Design Inspiration: Innovative Business Card Designs

Posted by dlstl in Design Inspiration, Graphic Design on 01 5th, 2010 | 7 responses

Looking for some alternatives to bland business card designs? Sometimes a great background or illustration is just the ticket to a memorable and clever business card. Using vectors and images from Graphic Leftovers, we designed a few cards that demonstrate that “wow” factor for just a few dollars. You can recreate these designs by clicking on the art links.

These are nice but I am curious why I keep seeing cards with tiny print. If this is your cheapest form of advertising wouldn’t you want all ranges of people (boomers especially) to be able to read it?

Thanks for showcase. I also recommend http://www.cardonizer.com for inspiration.

Very nice business cards concepts! I like the First two and then the Sailor Bob tattoo business card.

I think that’s a good point, ann. If this were a real design project, we would definitely take that into consideration when we go into a few rounds of revisions! :)

Love the designs they are a great inspiration. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good place to get business cards printed with rounded edges.
