In today’s short article I would like to take you through process of creating business card for Darc Vanilla Design. Having in mind rules what make a good business card I came up with simple but original design for my business. When printing my project, I chose 400 gsm matt laminated paper. When deciding about your business card, always go for the thickest paper – it looks more professional and it’s more durable. Today’s printing techniques allow you to print on plastic, wood, and many other materials. If you want to stay with paper only, you can enrich your project with spot UV varnish or cut out (shaped) techniques. The possibilities are unlimited, choice is yours.
