Business card

I wanted to get myself some business cards made up to help with my freelancing a bit, so here is what I made.

I wanted something simple, and to match my websites color scheme.

The tops the front and the backs the back right? If so, I think this is hot. Definitely recognisable if you saw it again somewhere. Also quite unique, havn't seen many like this before. Nice job.

Ya, I wanted the pink gradient on the background text to be coming from 1 side.

I like it a lot, one thing im not too keen on is the red colour on front of each word/number, i dunno it just looks weird i think. Just personal opinion though :P
Looks great.

Although if you compare it with the website design and the front of the card, it works really well... Awesome job imo.

way cool man. Very minimalist, like your website says. But it works... Good job...

I'm not so hot on the red letters either. Maybe try a different shade of pink?

I would really have to see this one printed before I could give an honest critique. One thing though, I think the typeface could be a bit bigger. The card is about 3-4x bigger than normal size, so the font on the right may seem too small to be noticed. That and the red is kind of obtrusive. Gj though man!

I dont think I'd associate your business card with the website. The colour theme is there, but if you're trying to brand yourself, I'd make the card look more like the site, or vise-versa.

I'd heard word around the forum of you working on a card.
I liek it. it's simple it's nice and it looks elegant.

Nice colours, text and layout. A perfect match if you ask me.

I like the redesign. Because it is more of a match to your website. It's still simple, and effective. The red gives a nice contrast to the large white background. It'll also be cheaper to print ;)

Yeah, the redesign is much better. I don't see why the background is that light gray though--should be fine as white. The contact info seems oddly positioned too. Good work though.

I though I would do 1 more design, showing my art.

not bad pet.

just had to tilt my head so i could see it.

maybe one of your other vectors would look better

Only thing I don't like is that both sides are dark. I like to scribble notes on my business cards, and clients like the convenience as well. Just a note. Looks good otherwise. ;)

Remember you'd be holding the card, so you'd turn that instead.
