Sharing a photo of your work on your next business cards is a great way to show off what you can do.  I have some cards with my lavender sachets on one side and my information on the other.  You can choose tons of designs for one set of cards at Moo.com.

Make your cards sticky! You can create beautiful cards that are stickers…cool idea!  Stick them to your boxes and bags and add another one for them to keep.

I make my cards by sewing fabric on the backside with the various patterns I have used. I then zig zag stitch with gold thread to give the text side a little punch. Good way to use up scraps that are usually too small for many other projects.

We currently use Moo.com and love the expressions on people’s faces when they get a business card with a sampling of our work as well as our information. It is a really neat way to showcase your products as well as get information about your business out there. These other ideas look pretty neat as well so we may branch out. Thanks for the ideas!!!
