Since you all asked (well, two of you asked), here are my new bloggy business cards. I ordered them from FedEx online (formerly known as Kinko’s), and even though the site said I’d receive them in seven business days, I got them early on Friday.
I don’t love them, to be honest. The paper is not that great, and the size seems off. The design is pretty straightforward – the same image from my blog header, my name, e-mail address, blog address and Twitter address.
The smallest amount I could order was 250. I told Mark that I sure didn’t need that many. He kindly said, “I don’t know. I’m sure all those big bloggers gave away a lot of cards when they were starting.”
So optimistic, that husband of mine.
Have a good weekend! I’m off to finish cleaning the house for my party!
well, since i can't really tell the dimensions and feel the paper, i have to say i LOVE them! really, i like the layout and design. nice, simple, and clean.
and WOW i have a LOT to catch up on your blog when i get home!
I think they're VERY nice! (And Connor says, "that's cool!")
They do look really nice and professional from your picture. I hope you have fun handing them out! :)
ha. I was just sitting here two minutes ago crossing out the "blogspot" part of my web address on my business cards. I am so ghetto. They are the as free as free can get ones from VistaPrint. Yours are cute! And as long as your info is there, it's very helpful for when you meet people!
I love the look of your cards – sad the paper quality isn't what you like – but they are pretty! I like them!
I love these cards…I think your banner is very clean and streamlined. It looks really professional that way. I dig it.
They look really cute (I love your header). I also ordered 250 about a year ago…I currently have about 175 in my nightstand – but I always have them when I go to a blogger event.
I like the cards! No one cares about paper & size, anyway (and I'm sure both are fine), unless you're Christian Bale in "American Psycho"…which you're obviously not, and I assume no one else at your conference is, either!
Okay, so the logo is bigger than your name. Personally, I've always thought your name should be up in lights just because you're you, but I could be a little biased. At least the fruit is apples and not strawberries, right?
Thanks, all. And yes, Mom, we all know my name should be in lights. Well, at least you and I know that. :)
Oh, I love them! I love the design too! I like that it is the same as your blog header. I would love to know how you came about your blog design. Very cute! I am looking forward to meeting you at She Speaks!

I like your cards! I got mine from VistaPrint and they had a great price and they always have great deals! Very fun!
I just got some made at Staples today that look just like my blog header, too. Everyone had them at Blissdom and I was all, "let me write down the blog who's name I'm about to change on this napkin". Yes, it was cool.
I love your business cards! They are cute AND professional looking. And how sweet is your supportive husband.
Thanks, all! I can't wait until I can see each of you and GIVE YOU ONE in person!! :)
The cards look nice in the picture. My daughter, FigNewTon, collects business cards. Maybe we can connect and get her one. I am enjoying your blog. Thanks for stopping by mine. God bless.
