Creative Business Cards

Business cards are an important part of an illustrator's professional presentation and a crucial signature that says EVERYTHING in a nutshell...or a tiny piece of printed matter.

The size of the card, the information you put on it, the quality of paper are all important. Do consider font style and size, composition and what you will put at the front and at the back. But most importantly, what do you want this business card to say about you?

I include here business cards I have collected over the years. Many come in all sizes and shapes. Arguably,  a good business card is in the pocket size/ fits-in-a-wallet size format.

But I have noticed designers like all sorts of things; postcards and other larger formats can be good samples to leave behind after visiting a client with a portfolio.

I have both, postcards and my business cards as I find the latter more handy over networking opportunities. Tearsheets are a good way to make a lasting impression too. But more on these in another blogpost!
