Hey guys, I'm making some business cards and I was wondering what you think of this design. Should I also make a back that lists some of the services I'll be offering? Any input is appreciated, thanks!

Awesome , your address and phone# is not readable. Was that intentional for the forum?

Yes, it's not because of privacy issues, but I just want to break forum rules which state no advertising. Thanks for the feedback so far, you guys are quick.:xyxthumbs



I'm just wondering if I should add a back side to the card listing the different services or will that be overkill?
 
I like it a lot! :2thumbs:



As for the back... I would just leave it blank. Some people say that if you are going to be handing them out you do not want to waste the space, but my opinion differs. It is more expensive to print on both sides and it also leaves the back open for hand written notes/comments if you need (which I have done many times).



Also, I don't like price shoppers and can sell white gloves to an old lady with a catchup popcicle if I can talk to them in person. If they are really interested, they will contact you and ask.

I hadn't thought of the fact that I couldn't write on them if they had a back. That is definately a huge plus, and it saves me money. I'm gunna go with the single side. Thanks for the help guys.:2thumbs:

I think the rule is rather silly since a lot of the posters are advertising their business just by their screen name, and their sig. Anyways, cool card, just keep the card simple and not too busy.
 
Some things i might do would be to get ride of the black border because to me it seems to draw your eye away from it or you look only at the edges of it, unless it is there for croping reasons. Then it seems too much focus is on the left hand portion of card and the right side to me needs something there. Thats just the graphic designer in me and all the stuff i learned it school, but i love that image.

This is one design i did for my cousin, out of many and still working at it, that he really liked. I just kept it real simple.
