My new business cards

My new business cards by NathanaelB.
Designed by local Canberra freelance designer Ben Cochrane (let me know if you want his contact details for design work) and printed by Hero Print.

I found Ben through a bunch of business cards that UC grad students design and print and the university then sends around to local businesses - and because I was a business last year I received a stack of cards ... which I pulled out a couple of weeks ago, liked Ben's card, asked if he could do some work - and 6 days later I had the concepts and then a day after that the final artwork which I uploaded and paid for online through Hero Print last Wednesday and the cards arrived today. I highly recommend both Ben for his quality work, service and efficiency/speed as well as Hero Print which I've used several times before ... they're very competent at what they do; I've never had any problems with them - they just make it happen and get their orders shipped very quickly. Printing of 250 double-sided laminated full colour cards cost me $91 and the cost of the design work by Ben was very reasonable.

I love the coffee stain - I know I went against the majority with the beige/coffee colour instead of the black background, but the coffee stain is so cool! You can't really see it on the black concepts.

Technical info on this shot: Overhead 40 watt bedside light and an upside down plastic in-tray :-)
