Yay! I am so excited about my beautiful new bookbinding business cards! (try saying that five times fast). I LOVE double sided business cards, because you can put an eye-catching graphic on one side and all of your details on the other side. Business cards are the first impression people have of your business, so you want them to be like your work – high quality. Would you trust a hairdresser with an awful femme-mullet?<\/p>\n

Crafters and Artists, take note! The best way to describe to people what you make is to SHOW them. It could be the difference between a gallery owner you meet at a party saying \u00e2\u20ac\u0153oh – what do you mean?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d when you say you make books by hand, and saying \u00e2\u20ac\u0153oh wow! You stitched this by hand?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d when you show them your card. (not to mention \u00e2\u20ac\u0153what a beautiful card!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d and \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I would love to carry your entire inventory in my shop!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d haha )<\/p>\n

These cards are nice, super-thick 16pt business cards (the same thickness as Moo Cards) and they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re matte finish, which I think in many cases looks a little more polished than glossy UV.<\/p>\n
