Creative Business Card Ideas

Each time I run out of business cards, I hem and haw over the purchase of new ones until I’ve missed the deadline to order anything truly brilliant and am just doing my best to get something, anything, in hand. It’s a vicious cycle really, because I don’t want to order “too many” cards in hopes that the next ones will be amazing so I frequently find myself in need of new business cards.

What’s the big deal? Well, I want creative business cards. I want cards that are beautiful, unique and leave an impression all at the same time.

I suppose that part of the pressure comes from having encountered so many pretty ones. You can see all of the unique business cards I’ve pinned…

But, today I thought I would share some of the cards I picked up at SNAP!

I definitely found myself drawn to bold colors like Lani’s card, the happy hello on Abbey’s card,  glitter, the crayon on Ann Marie’s card and {sigh} the heavy weight of both Kirsten and Heather’s cards…

I love how well some bloggers brought together fun and great branding…Jamielyn always has a cute handout, but these little ice cream cones were so fitting. I love that Sara passed out pirate’s treasure. If your name is Burlap and Denim, I don’t know that you could possible go wrong with a card made of burlap and denim! Last, but certainly not least, check out Lindi’s awesome kit of goodness…

There were some cards packaged up with little gifts…

I am itching to buy some of Jessica’s awesome stamped home decor pieces after receiving this one…

Cute cards with charms…

Cards with treats and snacks…

The color and variety were simply wonderful…

Of course one of my very favorite’s was a card I didn’t even pick up. Check out these cool fringed cards from KoJo.

What’s the most important thing to you when picking out your business cards? Are you a headshot kind of person, or graphics?
