Design Suggestions

  • The Minimalist

When a client takes your card, they should be able to easily identify who you are, and what you are selling. While any information about your business is relevant, a card is too small to print the contents of your website. So we suggest you limit the size of your logo, business name, and only add two lines of contact information, including your social media name and your official website. Aesthetically geometric elements and bright colors come together beautifully, so if you are an artist or a graphic designer, we suggest this type of design.

  • Artsy & Fashionable

For people who are going for something equally fashionable but with a few more decorative elements, we suggest a modern and clean look that establishes the designer’s eye for color and composition. Cards that are dense with text and images can look desperate and unprofessional. If it suits your brand, choose a sophisticated color palette and floral elements. You can accent that with foil printing, for example..

  • Energetic

For the extravagant, we suggest energetic designs. It is reminiscent of sophistication and elegance, but also optimism and energy, and is a beautiful solution for business cards. If you print vertically, you will definitely make an impression! Forego the flimsy inkjet cards and select a thicker card. If it suits your taste, opt for color palettes like black and gold, black and orange, black and neon, etc.

  • Natural

People looking for an eco-friendly vibe, rustic designs might be the right choice for you. Kraft paper business cards do the trick. Although the paper is earthy-colored, you can always opt for real recycled materials, if it is textured and much better quality. It perfectly communicates the idea of sustainability. The design is perfect for clothing stores and other industries that utilize eco-friendly materials.

  • Bright & Daring

Playful citrus-colored cards are ideal for people looking to project a youthful, vibrant image. You can use yellow, green, pink, or whatever other colors you find interesting. The creative use of scale and selection of bright colors will make the brand name bleed off the page, and also communicate out-of-the-box thinking. If you are starting a clothing brand for young sports people, this might be the best choice for you.

  • Royal

For those looking for a particularly refined design when investing in business card printing, royal & luxurious designs are expertly crafted to give off a one-of-a-kind classy vibe. The combination of gold over a black background, for example, with elements that stand out, create a lasting impression. You can also use gold foil to accent on the details. This might be the perfect idea for art aficionados and auctioneers.

  • Vibrant Patterns

Creative letterpress business cards that combine small patterns in similar colors over a cream-colored paper are perfect for creating optical art and the illusion of movement. Vibrant patterns will stand out from a pile of other ordinary business cards. Guaranteed! You can create a print big as the card itself, but leave a small blank space where you can add your information in simplistic text font.

Business cards are a chance for small businesses to make a good impression on potential clients and partners. With a simplified design, the proper use of colors and specialty use of foil and other elements, you are sure to stand out from the crowd and be the talk of the next business convention.
