I missed having cards in my wallet so I decided to make some for my blog. Now, honestly, one of the reasons I wanted to make them is to test out this particular product from the photography printer I use. These are not your average business card. They are printed on very nice cardstock, and they look fabulous. Sure, I don't have letters behind my name on these cards, but it makes me happy to carry them around in my wallet. Now I can easily pass on my info if I'm chatting with someone about quilting or crafting.
Now for the giveaway. If you want some of your very own blog business cards, just enter to win. I'll design a full-color, double-sided card for you using your photography and logo (if you have one). You'll get 50 cards 2.5" x 3.5" on your choice of cardstock: pearl, linen or watercolor (I used pearl for my cards). This is a $50 value including the product, digital photo editing and design time.
A second winner will receive four fat quarters from one of my favorite lines of fabric--Modern Meadow by Joel Dewberry. I'm so happy it's back in print again, although I have enough leftovers from our bed quilt to last me a long time.
You have three chances to win. Everyone knows the drill. Make sure I have your contact info either in your post or through blogger. One comment for each of the following:
- Your name
- Become a follower (reader counts too)
- Blog about this giveaway or pass it on to friends by e-mail, facebook, etc...
Thanks so much for following. Have a wonderful day. The winners will be announced Wednesday, October 13th.
Ooh, count me in! My husband got some really cool business cards like this for his photography and I've been thinking it would be fun to have some for my hobby too.
ReplyDeleteI love that fabric. When you showed your pillow at quilt group last time I love how luxurious it looked in person, something I didn't see when I looked at it online.
Wow, I would love to have business cards. I also miss having them. In fact, I think I still have 2 of my old business cards in my purse from 10 years ago. Just wanted to hold onto something of the pre-mommy life.
ReplyDeleteFantastic business cards! I love how they really showcase the photo.

ReplyDeleteand i posted the giveaway on my blog under fabrics fabrics!
ReplyDeleteCool cards! I love Joel Dewberry fabric too.
ReplyDeleteI follow your blog.
ReplyDeleteI also miss having business cards. It's like when you become a stay at home mom everyone assumes you are lazy and have never worked a day in your life or that you aren't very intelligent. We just moved and I had a hard time parting with my old name plate and awards I had. There was no point in keeping them though and I needed the space.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't be able to use the business cards but yours are gorgeous!
Those are VERY cute cards!
ReplyDeleteAnd I follow you in reader!
ReplyDeleteI too have no need for the cards, beautiful though they are, but that fabric is making me hyperventilate!

Love the business cards! What a cool idea. This sounds a little ridiculous, but now that I'm a stay-at-home mom, I consider my sewing my "work". (Ridiculous because I don't get paid for any of it. Far from it - money flows OUT instead, with all the fabric I buy!)
ReplyDeleteAlso, I'm a new follower. Your quilts are beautiful.

ReplyDeleteI agree with your perspective on business cards very much. I'd love to win and see what you create, as I think you have far more creativity than I do. I'm sure whomever wins will enjoy your cards & design. I know I would.
