Whilst in the process of designing my business cards I stumbled across this post from twotimeselliott on Instagram and it sparked an idea of how to word my position within my business cards.
Just having the obvious 'aspiring graphic designer' on my cards seemed not enough, I felt like it needed something more. So I began asking family and friends what they thought of me and I selected words from that to include within it.
The main and most important part of the business card is in black to contrast with the lightly coloured other adjectives that describe me. This design was something I think is different to the typical cards you would receive and kind of says a bit more about me at a glance, which is useful.
The design also shows off the playful and less serious side of me, as much as I serious and focused on my work, there is a part of me that enjoys socialising and having a laugh with the people I work with.
The only problem I had with this design though is that to be at the size of a regular business card ~(75mm x 55mm) the type on there would be barely visible and would feel too cluttered on a smaller scale.
I narrowed down the content so that everything was much more easily visible at a small scale, it also meant that it kept the content somewhat ambiguous in the hope to intrigue people into checking out my website/twitter etc.
