Post by summers4seasons on Wed Oct 26, 2011 11:38 am



I plan to print list event ideas and removal instructions in black on the back.

What do you think?

what area do you paint in? this card could float around out of your area and nobody would know.
do you have a website?

Just two notes from me, you may not even want that info on a card. otherwise I like it. busy for my use, but effective on showing your goods.

I really like it (love all the pics!), but like Taradoodles said a location might be good? I decided to put a location on my cards buts thats because I can't really travel too far from home Smile

What program did you use to design this??

Is this tag line ok?
Here is the back


I use Publisher, then save it as a JPEG to share here and send to my local printer.

Throwing my 2 cents in as a photographer & designer.

I thinks its too busy. Your clients will be more likely to be drawn with one or two WOW images rather than a bunch of them that start to blend together. A business card is really small. Eye contact is always good. My current card doesn't have pictures but it does make people want to check out my work. I think one really strong image will peek their interest enough to find out more.

The font on the back is hard to read. I know it has the "feel" you are going for but its hard to read in small print. Stick with times or helvetica. Use the fancy font to highlight pieces on the card.

If you want to have all that info on the back I would suggest getting 3 different cards- one with each care on the back and one general one with the different types of events. Vistaprint cards are cheap and if you find a email w/ a free upload code you can upload everything and order.

Also if you are going to put facebook on it you need to put your facebook page name. Make it easy for your potential customers.

This is my current biz card for my photo studio. I have gotten more people take these than any of my other cards. They are square and did cost a bit more but they are doing their job.

I often provide different services for different kids in one family. I would really like to just have one easy card. So taking to heart what you suggested, I tried to simplify the back some.

better?

Cheri, I ADORE the "you need me" - awesome!

Summer, I agree that it's crowded. Look up Lonewolf's card - she too has "slices" but ends on the right with a larger, full design photo.

Also, I think you need to switch out Wolverine. Copyrights, etc.

Don't think you need to worry about location - the area code helps with that, generally Smile

Thanks Kristal. I figure the clients who like it or are intrigued are my kind of clients. If they are offended or don't get it they wouldn't like my style anyway.

I do like the reworked version better and looking at the front I think your tiger or princess mask look the sharpest and most eye catching.
