New Etch A Sketch business cards

Hey everyone!   it's really been too long since I've been active here... this is something I'd like to change starting with this here deviation!


So...my new business cards came in! I got them from moo.com which allows you to order multiple images on one side within the same order. The cards are really high quality and well worth the price! The last card in my hand shows the front side which has my info on it. I'm so pleased with these little guys

I had an earlier version of this business card pictured below)

which I worked really hard on (I actually created all of that information that is on the card on an actual Etch A Sketch!) but was logistically a nightmare to print. I made it the exact size as an actual Etch A Sketch, which translated really well, but didn't work out how I wanted because the beauty of a business card is that its size allows you to throw it in your pocket or wallet and not worry about damaging it. I got the original cards printed at local places on thick card stock, and cut them myself by hand. That always took a really long time! I finally decided to take the plunge when I realized that the info I included on my old card was not sufficient (my new cards now have my phone number and email as well). I'll miss my old business card, but I am happy with my new ones and am ready to retire my old design.


It took a few hours to properly photoshop an Etch A Sketch that would fit into the moo template parameters and choose which art I'd like to feature on my cards. Add a few more hours for the other side - I made the banner element from scratch on illustrator and designed many concepts before I chose the one on my card. By the way, you can see all 4 pieces that are featured on my cards below:
