Watercolor Business Cards



Today I attended my first local event and last night I realized I didn't have any business cards.  I wanted them to be like a paint chip you take from the store so I went with a square design (2.5"x 2.5").  Water coloring them was so much fun and very easy.



I like how they each look different and I hope they are memorable.  There is nothing worse than a lame business card.  That might be a slight exaggeration, but you should stick out from the pack so people remember you.  A good test is if people comment on your card when you hand it to them or can't stop starring at it or feeling it... good paper will go a looooong way!

Deb,

Your business cards were gorgeous. It was my favorite card of the day. It was nice to meet you at the MN Blogger Conference. I look forward to following you here.

Thanks,
Jackie

These are gorgeous cards! Now I'm sad you didn't hand one to ME at the event. Come to think of it, none of the new people I met handed me cards.... what's up with that? :)

It was great meeting you at the conference - hope to see more of you!
