mix of sans serif and serif bugs me.

I got it but my wife had no idea what the straps were. I agree that you should have somewhere to write on.

This was one of my gripes. The logo on the front is consistent with my website…

there' a reason people get paid bucks for designing them things for sure. I would choose a round font that is similar but has its own unique characteristics. Cheap fix -Your logo is fine, just flip the font out on the back for the rounded job and you're all good.

I think the reason the mix of sans and serif bothers me is because on one side it's all sans, and the other it's all serif. Maybe if you had some sans elements on the backside with the serif it might work better.

Or yeah you could just make the backside a sans as well, just make sure the two typefaces end up going together (not too similar or too different).

That could work. My preference is to avoid mixing serifs and sans because it can either work very well and you're a hero or else there's the other 98[HTML_REMOVED]#37; of the time that it looks like ass.

My favourite card was given to me by someone who simply had their signature embossed on one side with "PHOTOGRAPHY" screened in a very clean hand printed way on the front below the sig. On the back all of her details were all in the same neat printing. very personal and the gals printed writing was so nice I was tempted to have her write out an alphabet for me to scan - trace and fontogra-fy. But then it would have lost its uniqueness.

Damn…I really need to blow up my computer and start to paint and draw again. Digital tools have made me lazy and I bore easily these days.

Nelson, to my unprofessional eye, it looks kinda odd that "Website" is the only capitalized word on the back of the card. Just a thought.

I would delete the 'website' wording, and use the gray for contact@. That way it is still obvious what your website URL is.
