business cards

Hey guys,

Looking for a bit of help...These were part of a uni project to design the logo for a textiles company. I'm happy with the logo but always find it hard applying it to buisness cards and stationary.

Any help/comments greatly appreciated.

Cheers

I think the first one, but with a different font for the addresses - perhaps a less detailed serif face. Like the blue, like the flowers, like the logo. Don't like the orange or the font used for the "flawless aesthetics" stuff, but like that text.

Is it going to be double-sided? Maybe on the other side you could bring that crest in, perhaps centre it with the "flawless" text underneath - could try that blue on a white background.

along the same lines as pat... the crest is nice but needs a bit more work - no need for the asterisk.

Liking the style but small adjustments are needed.

The T in telephone and E in e-mail are left aligned - so the stems don't match...

I say the third one, although you can tell you pinched that cow thing as the background is the wrong colour blue.

Also, floral, boooo

Definitely #3. As they said it could use a bit of tweaking. Looks good to me though.

Wasn't Jelly Baby doing something called "Loom" at some point? Same university?

hmm don't like the leading on the third one. Crest is aight but needs some work doesn't really feel strong i guess. What if you tried some with the logo at a lower apacit and more as a background thing behind the text or something? Also the card just doesn't feel elegant, which the logo seems to be trying to get across. Maybe some kind of border or corner gettup i dunno.

Better mate

you may want to tighten the kerning between the O and M a little? And as somebody mentioned, it could be white on the reverse, with blue detail/text. What info is there to include?

There not ment to be flowers, It's ment to be the mantling from the family shield style logo. Need to include the full logo on the business cards to avoid confusion then, haha.

I'd put the logo up but it's saying my attachments are full, how do I empty/delete them??
