Some pretty cool ideas. I like the crazy poppup cards. I actually work at a print shop, I think I would be pretty annoyed if someone asked me if we could do ANY of this stuff.

I'd like to know how much was spent on the production of these cards, and what print shop did them.

I'd also be interested in rough pricings for these, it's time that my card needed a bit of a freshening up!

Really good and really interesting post. I expect (and other readers maybe :)) new useful posts from you!
Good luck and successes in blogging!

I think you missed the point on the one you said "closes like a self-mailer." The words have been printed upside-down, and you have to look into the mirror on the top flap to read it!!!

Great ideas. I've seen a bunch of these "best business cards" blogs now, but can't find anyone who tells you where to get something like these done, and how much they cost. If anyone needs any cards designed, or any other graphics done, I'm available. Please visit:

All the cards are very cool but where can you order them????????????

all cool, great pics.

Those are some pretty fly designs! Goes to show you that this generation's imagination never ceases to amaze us

Did any of the designers explain where they've got their stuff printed? Any places we other designers should avoid? (I hate wasting my time & money on places that don't produce good quality)

Superb Designs.....Gives lots of inspiration to designs thanks

Great post with some great examples of creativity! Heads up, there is a contest where you can actually win free business cards for LIFE...check it out:

Sometimes it's really that simple, isn't it? I feel a little stupid for not thinking of this myself/earlier, though.
