When I have moments of boredom, I create new projects for myself.

As such, I'm creating a new website. I am sure some of you have seen it because I've sent it around here and there but if not, don't worry, I'll show you soon.

And consequently, I need to reinvent my business cards. I mean, I'm already carrying around one for the blog and one for the "real life" job, but what I think I'd like ultiamtely is one card identifying me as all things. 

My SCLB cohorts referred me to Minted.com and the one thing I can say for certain is WOW. They have AWESOME choices. And it takes a lot of pressure off of me cause I always try to make something from scratch and it's never as clever as what I'm looking at here. 

I just love their aesthetic.

The one thing I cannot say for certain is which design I want to get specifically so I turn to you, fair and balanced people, to voice your opinion below. Here are the ones I've narrowed it down to -- let me know what you think! 

#1

MIN-08M-BSC-001_B_PD
#2

MIN-74L-BSC-001_A_PD
#3

MIN-Y35-BSC-001_C_PD
I think I'm leaning toward #1...

P.S. They have a sample business card for Robert Paulson and if you don't understand why that is brilliant, click here. :)

P.P.S. They have a business card with a clown on it, y'all. Not ok.

In the interest of full disclosure, Minted has come on board to work with the SoCal Lady Bloggers and in exchange for this post, they are generously giving me some cards, gratis. They're timing was perfect -- I could not pass up the opportunity!

For my birthday, a friend posted this GEM on my Facebook wall. I have NO IDEA how I've gone 34 years and am only hearing this now for the first time. We are failing at life, people. This is SO much better than Boston's "Amanda" and Barry Manilow's "Mandy," right?!
