Rubber Stamp Cards - Create an "old school" hand-printed cards!

In a world increasingly hi-tech it becomes more difficult to create something that is really hand-thing you can "bring your own timbre. The world of cards visit is no exception. You may have designed your current design business card, but I bet you had little or nothing to do with printing physical one!

Judging by most businesses card designs I've seen lately, there is a definite reaction of the mass "products" look and feel of a typical business card. Personally, I like my cards to look smooth and professional, but I realize that this is not for everyone. In particular, organizations of alternative lifestyle, fashion companies and designers are rethinking how they present their cards. The trend towards a more "organic" card is becoming increasingly popular.

Creating a card that has a "print hand "call is not difficult at all. By using a measure rubber stamp, you can create a business card to fashion super (kind of style guerrilla card that does not respect the rules.)

The image above shows a card that has been created using a rubber stamp. The designer who created these wonderful cards wanted to convey a sense of simplicity and style. So he created his unique cards:

He designed a personalized stamp with its coordinates Business on him and moved his design free online

He bought his own card stock as a local stationery store and used a Guillotine Kinko's to reduce the stock size!

Once it has received its stamp of its line of printers, individually struck the cards and sent them to his customers and friends!

The designer was determined to create a card that was original Custom and involving. According to him, is all "old school" on their cards was much more fun than just sending a file to be printed and waiting for their boards to be returned.

Although the response to this article, I came across this business card (above) that was created using two different colored stamps. The contrasting black and red patches have been specially designed to interact with each with others, a difference of negative space in the middle of the black stamp pattern have been omitted to allow the red logo patch to be applied inside the black pattern. This is a very clever use of stamps - a technique that is reminiscent of the impression block of ancient woodland.

Using stamps is a very fun to create your business cards. It is also the personality of many business owners and people who like to defy the conventions that are a little more "advanced" in their thinking. However, it is not only for reasons of style as the rubber stamp business cards are a good idea. You can also save you a lot of money in printing costs. Although the initial cost of stamps may be similar to a typical business card order, once you have the original cost of your stamps covered, you can do your own business cards more and more, and more!
