Here's my card.

So I just finally got my business cards in the mail today! Pretty exciting!

I designed them myself!
It took me 3 versions before this official copy to decide on a card, here are the previous ideas I was testing out before I came to my final decision on what I wanted to show to people through card form.

[1] was my very first attempt at a business card. Very bland, didn't catch attention, just.. all around boring.

[2] second attempt to be simple and to the point. But still I didn't think it was very me at all. I just didn't like the bright white feel it had.

[3] third attempt I didn't get very far. I just wanted to show people that I wanted more of a vivid, dark, eye catching card. Something flashy in a way.

[Final - 4] the last attempt was is the one I liked best. It came in various colors originally but in the end I believe that purple and yellow go hand in hand. Make both colors pop, stand out, just be there own. I wonder why I didn't think to draw a tablet pen since that's what I prefer to work with over a paint brush, I don't even know how to paint actually! Haha, pretty funny to think about.

I just had to update with my flashy new cards, I'm so happy now I have them to hand out when talking about my artistic career! C: Now I just gotta get into learning how to make prints, posters, cards, magnets, all those little trinkets and goodies. It amazing me how much I still have to learn in order to survive the art world business and I took no consideration before LEAPING into it, maybe that's the best way in the end for me. Paddle vigorously and hope to hell I don't sink.

Thanks for reading everyone!

  2. Where did you order them from? I made one and printed some off on my computer on card stock but then I had to cut them myself and the ink isn't fast so they can smudge.

  3. I think so are super cute Ash! Haha Super sophisticated no? Start handing your business cards out to people you meet, instead of just giving them your phone number.
