Default Business Cards!

Spent the past couple of nights designing my new business cards. Had fun but glad they are finally done! Four front designs and one back design.

BC-1

BC-2

BC-3

and the back is below.
BC-back

I had one more front, but I didn't want to over step the bounds of the 4 pictures per thread rule. if you are interested in seeing it you can always see it on blog.ryanmckayphotography.com

Let me know what you think

Thank FoG! The last picture isn't meant to be a show off of my work but more of a background for the text. It will be the back of the card while one of four picture sets will be the front. That way I have the mini portfolio in the front and something other than solid color in the back with the information on how to get a-hold of me. I actually took that picture with that idea in mind lol. Thankfully my parents were accommodating enough to indulge me for the picture.

Thank you KazeFox! I had one more cover designed but didn't want to break the 4 picture per thread per day rule. You can see it here though.

I really like all but the last one. Where did you get them done if I may ask?

I'll be getting them done through Moo.com These are just the jpgs I made the other night. I still have to upload them to moo to get them printed.

Moo is great for business cards. I love using them.

And you are allowed to add another photo at this point if you want.

2. Please post no more than four images in the beginning post. Further pictures (again, no more than four at a time) can be added after a further 24 hours or after at least two other people have replied to the thread.
I think that for the back of your cards that one looks really neat. The middle shot in the second card is great looking! Love the way the colours pop on that.

Very nicely done. Good luck in choosing a front, they are all good.

ah well then in that case, here is the last front I have

BC-4

Thanks for the kind words Nicole! That shot you mentioned is still one of my favorites I've done.

Thanks Mike! That's the beauty of using Moo. I can use all of the fronts, and they'll just make me an even number of each in that batch. If you really wanted to, Moo allows you to have a different front for EACH card. Insane huh?

Thanks, Oldwolf! I'm kinda proud of them. Took quite a while to get to here. Glad they're done.
