    • February 18, 2008 at 6:07 pm

      Simply amazing set of business cards!

    • February 19, 2008 at 9:08 am

      Those are some cool business cards. I wanted to go with the transparent plastic for my own design, but either it was too expensive or there was nowhere that provided that kind of card.

      Here’s my design:

      I like very much your business cards. I will like to order. I will apreciate if you can tell (help) me how can I do that.

      Thank you

    • September 15, 2008 at 1:49 am

      Funny I’ve seen two of those, because my mother is a graphic designer in vegas. Nice collection.

    • October 7, 2008 at 9:56 am

      I want to know if you would be interested in an idea I have for business card holders.

      I know there are no other card holders, but this could possible help increase your business.

      Right at the present time you can only reach me by e-mail.

      Thanks,

      Pat

    • October 8, 2008 at 5:28 am

      These are the cards posted on flicker by daily poetics.

      Great collection. It must have taken so time to create the list. Well done.

    • October 14, 2008 at 1:44 pm

      cool collection thanks

    • October 23, 2008 at 9:41 pm

      I was wondering where do you get these kind of media printed.

      Please contact me at

      dezignetc@gmail.com

      Thank You

    • October 28, 2008 at 1:49 pm

      Although all of these cards are definitely cool, I’d imagine some of them are fairly expensive to produce. This is the fourth such list I’ve seen today and yet none have shown a dollar bill business card. Now, those are really cool… and they’re not expensive either!

      Best Regards,

      John

      Does anyone know a good printing company for cool papers?

    • November 6, 2008 at 6:56 pm

      Some weeks ago I found this page and I was inspired! H-oouu-h, I’ve found these designs again, I really like it, thank you inspiredology.com. superb collection!!!

    • November 7, 2008 at 4:48 pm

      I don’t get it.

      Most of these business cards (such as the connected matters card at the beginning) are really simple and basic, nothing “cool” about them.

      At least, in my opinion.

    • November 15, 2008 at 3:20 am

      Hi – Can someone email me the company websites that actually do these cards… oslaue@gmail.com …I would love to have my own business card. Thanks

    • December 1, 2008 at 5:45 pm

      I like the Estetic Cabinet cards – how one side kind of bleeds over to the other is great. Two-sided business cards are becoming the norm now, as these examples show. Many of the business cards here are simple in design, but use color very well. I don’t think the odd shaped ones will be kept by many people because it’s been shown that business cards of traditional size are more easily slipped into the wallet or Rolodex. This Design & Print blog post has good info about mistakes to avoid when designing business cards.

    • December 9, 2008 at 12:37 pm

      very cool designs…

    • December 26, 2008 at 8:30 pm

      good works!!!

    • January 4, 2009 at 2:33 am

      waw…great design…
      love it!

    • January 14, 2009 at 4:09 pm

      If you like these designs, you may also like to see my hand-cut pop-up business card.

      When folded flat it is the same size as a standard business card.

      Thank you very much.

    • February 9, 2009 at 12:51 am

      Gorgeous stuff – very inspiring! Thanks.
      I’d like to have seen a description for some of the non-English ones, but still, it’s great to see them as they are.

    • February 22, 2009 at 8:29 am

      Some very elegant design,
      but a printer’s nightmare!

      Thank you for your time & trouble,

    • April 2, 2009 at 4:18 pm

      Best list I’ve seen yet. These are real cards instead of some of the ‘objects’ you see that are more like trade show giveaways. You’re really showing a great deal of creativity here!

    • April 5, 2009 at 9:02 am

      Awesome list! It seems like there really is no limit to what you can do with business cards. Only limited by a designer’s imagination.

    • April 23, 2009 at 3:20 pm

      Looks like I’ll have to work harder then eh? Fab designs!

    • May 1, 2009 at 5:02 am

      Nice! It’s good to see the world of print design is alive and well.

    • May 5, 2009 at 12:26 pm

      Another great business card round-up.

    • May 13, 2009 at 6:52 pm

      As I read somewhere else, no matter how clever a business card is, if it doesn’t fit into a wallet or a filofax, then what is the point?

    • May 18, 2009 at 4:07 am

      Excellent compilation. Inspiring, but how much do they cost to produce!

    • May 23, 2009 at 4:35 am
