More Buisness Card Designs

Front - New Design































I wanted to try and create something different upright instead of horizontal and see how the design space worked, if I liked it more. I used allot of the details from the original card, I added diffrent parts and see how they fit. I like how the text cascades downwards, seems to be easier to read and gives the text more room to breath.

There was a big gap in the middle of the text and I created a shiloutte of my character with paint splats around him, I decided to do this becasue as I want to become an illustrator I have to be able to show how I can create illustrations and what better place than on my own buisness card.

Back































I really liked the back of my first design, but wanted to try and make my character really big and outstanding. It really grabs your attention due to the colours but does not really fit the design as good as my first design. It shows off more due to the colour, but could that be annoying to look at or just be too much and too in your face!!

Change of Design




















I wanted to see what my new illustration would look like added to my initial design, I think it was just what the card needed to make it pop more and really grab the users attention. I think this is may favorite version so far, I still need to move around the fonts to give them more space. I really feel I am onto a buiness card that I willl be proud to hand out.

It really matches my website and that was a key feature, making everyhing I produce to promote myself match the same theme. So that it all fits together and shows my attention to detail as a designer and a person.

Hope you like what you see so far ....

  2. I really like the second design for the front of your card too. Still, I think all the elements are quite disorganized. Try to justify the 3 bottom elements (email, website and telephone) with DJR designs.
    Use your cartoon and splats as an icon that goes just beside your name and description and see if all this changes give more balance to the whole composition.
