I have my new business cards, just in the nick of time for Alt Summit! My old cards were cute, but it was time for something new.
Shiny gold foil printing on thick pink card stock. I designed them, then redesigned them, then overdesigned them, and in the end I redid the whole thing and ended up with this simple layout. I had them printed by Eagle Printing, here in Chicago.
And that’s my new logo on the cards. I think it’s a nice update, and not a radical departure from the logo I’ve had for the first five years. The cards will match the blog once I launch the redesign next month.
p.s. I rounded up 10 of my favorite business card designs right over here.

Oooh, love the new font! Have a great time at Alt.
Those are really pretty! I need new business cards maybe I should do something fun to help mine stand out from the rest.
I love it. What is that font? It’s gorgeous.
I love it. It’s got a cool glamorous retro feel to it.
Lovely. They remind me of lipstick and convertibles.
Beautiful in their simplicity. Love.

So simple and pretty and very fitting to the site. Love them!
Nice work, and combination of colors. The foiling gives it a ‘de-bossed’ look as well.
These are so beautiful…I absolutely love them and it looks like the good, thick cardstock, too!

That logo is perfect and the colors could not be better. They made me giddy. So giddy, I had to comment!
I got married this past October and pink and gold were the colors I used throughout (who says I have to use brown and green because it’s the fall?!). Absolutely gorgeous combination. Always classy and just a bit feminine and sweet.
Love the gold foil and light pink!
I think these are so beautiful! I was wondering if you would be willing to share what font you used?

Girly and pretty..yet very professional.

I know I’m a bit late to the game in replying to this, but I love these cards! They’re so beautifully balanced in every way. Excuse me if I’m drooling just a little bit.
Excuse me if I’m drooling just a little bit, but those cards are just scrumptious. So perfectly balanced in every way.
