Which business card?

Options
Hi

I spend a bit of time lurking round this website but I never really post, however I would really appreciate your opinion on my business cards...

I think they all look okay but not sure which one I should use.

Thanks

Hayley :D

    3rd one looks great to me.
  • Hayley,

    As a designer I have taken a look at your templates. to be honest none of them actually depict your wedding services, in fact if i was to only glance quickly at your card I would assume you were a florist

    Sorry to be so negative, but that is my professional opinion

    If you did have to use a design, use the last design but shrink the black line down so it does not fowl the flowers and seriously think about using a plainer font for your business name

    Regards

    Pete

    I agree with previous post about flower logo, maybe search google images for inspiration.

    I agree, think you should ditch the flowers and if you are more weddings than event planner....go for the two bands of gold instead, loads of those images about...the font is a wee bit over the top....perhaps a more plain "handwritten" or "script" type would be easier to read

    Hi

    I've done another, much simpler one. Could you see if this one looks okay?

    Thanks very much

    Hate to say it, but I'm not a big fan of the "caps lock" syndrome, and I don't think it really works with drop shadow on the text and what also appears to be either bevel edge or outline in white...not too sure when I enlarge in Adobe. just out of curiosity, which package are you using to design the card?

    Hi Torby

    I'm using photoshop, as you can probably see I am not too good at this kind of thing but I can't afford to have a professional do it so it's just trial and error until I get a good one. I'll take the shadow off and see how that looks. I think having it all in caps makes it all look a bit cleaner, a bit easier to read.

    Thanks for you comments though, all appreciated.

    None of them are very inspiring to be honest.
