Hot off the press are these striking business cards for WHP Creative. The cards are a Cranes Crest / Accent Fresco 700gsm duplex, letterpress printed black and blind deboss on the Cranes, black ink on the Fresco. The black logo on the Fresco was originally intended to be a blind deboss but we advised a black ink to help lift it. We can edge paint a Duplex stock and these were painted in a vibrant aqua green.

Wooden business cards for personal use. Burned with laser to birch. Various types of varnishes gives different contrast and colors to wood, so every card is unique.

I live surrounded by trees, so using birch as business card material was natural to me. I also like to use wooden materials as part of my designs.

One cool thing with this design is that the cards have very nice scent of birch.

Baliwood is travel agency in Bali, so their card had to be a thing associated with infinite summer. What can be better then ice cream! When you see it, you probably want to take it. Also I wanted cards to look like a real things in real world.

Natural Inspirations

Needed a new business card to help Natural Inspirations stand out. They are very traditional and needed a way to continue this, as well as show their creativity. 8% of proceeds go to Susan G. Komen for the Cure so I used the running ribbon as a way to not only promote Breast Cancer Awareness, but also to give Natural Inspirations that “creative kick.”

Dane Holmquist

The DH Business Card was inspired by the style of magician posters produced during the 1930’s. The theme is a fun way to promote Dane Holmquist, an illustrator, painter, graphic designer and overall Art Magician. The card design was created in illustrator by Mr. Holmquist and goes hand and hand with his resume and wicked mustache, which you can view by visiting dholmquistdesigns.com as well as view more of his detailed artwork. The card is two color, and letter pressed on a soft heavy stock white textured paper, which provided for a deep impression for the prefect “pop”. The plates used are made of copper. Copper plates are a must when pressing a detailed design or small text and will bite the paper without creating over bleed of the ink.

When thinking about bussiness cards for me I realize I didn’t want a convencional one, I didn’t want a flat rectangle, I want one that could interact much one than the usual ones and I didn’t have much money for them. So the solution was folding them, that way they get three dimensional and applying a sort of varnish on the logo get it to interact with the touch.
On the inside part there’s a description of services, while on the front the logo and signature and contacts and link for portfolio on the backside.

I wanted a cheap solution but something that had interest, visually bold and something that were interactive.
I was inspired by the recent interactive trend

They’re printed in a small shop but can be printed at home if the printer has quality enough.
Printing about a hundred cards were 9 euros, then I cut them and folded them and applied the varnish myself, that application is what would be the more expensive in a letterpress shop.

It’s printed in offset paper of 100g with and application by hand of a varnish for the napkin technique.
