Make Awesome Business Cards

I designed some Peace Corps name cards that are very basic and can be used for the next two years by me. I based them off of a similar poster made for Barack Obama during his Presidential campaign. It’s simple but still informative. On the backside I just have my email.

This is pretty much where I’m at with this goal right now: observing impressive cards that other people have made and taking notes on why they are so awesome. I love simplicity, as well as many other things such as color, texture, shape and layering on cards featured here. I will keep observing for now, there is a lot to learn from: http://cardobserver.com/

I read about Calling Cards on TheArtofManilness and thought it was pretty cool : http://artofmanliness.com/2008/09/07/the-gentlemans-guide-to-the-calling-card/
