Business Card Inspiration

I've found some lovely business card designs lately, so I wanted to share them with you! It's always interesting to see how diverse and intriguing business card designs can be. You can do a lot with a 3.5x2 inch space.

The first one is Callie Kant's business card. I love the beautiful cursive type (reminds me of this project by Jessica Hische).

The black and red color combination is fun, too: striking and a little bit vintage. I love the fact that Callie hand-letterpressed these cards as well! And her play on words with her last name is quite clever. The bold font for that text contrasts nicely with the cursive type.

I also really like these business cards for UTA, the United Talent Association. The freehand brush splatters are so artistic, and I love that there are numerous different patterns for the backs of the business cards.

I would frame a series of these business cards. They are so neat! I love the variety in patterns even though they are all black and white brushstrokes.

Javier Garcia's business card is nice, too. I like the letterpress.

The typography is really nice, especially the font he used for the numbers. Very cool! I also like the idea of
coloring the sides of the business cards. It adds a little more color in a subtle way.

These cards for Dilly Dally are some of the most unique cards I've seen.

The bright colors are so fun and happy, and I like the white text. But best of all, these cards convert into a toy you can build with! I love the idea of making your business card more than a business card. I also think it's interesting that the cards aren't exactly rectangular; they curve a little bit.

One more before I go: Adam Hill's business card. The way he created it is so interesting. Instead of having it professionally printed, he had two stamps made and "prints" the cards himself using the stamps on whatever paper is handy. And they look great!

I like the handmade look to these and the irregularity of the stamp placement. There's something fun about not making everything just so.

What do you all think of these business cards? I'd love to hear your thoughts.
