Personal Calling Cards
A little over a month ago I stumbled across a video for Evan Calkins showing off his letterpress. As soon as I saw what he was doing I was sold. I have wanted a business card for a while now so this was the perfect opportunity to support his art and come out with an awesome card. Hoban Press from Evan Calkins on Vimeo. |
The decision to keep the card so simple was an easy one after I read Evan’s article about calling cards. Most people I give this card to will throw it away but for those that hold onto it I wanted to direct them to one place, my website. If I put more info than that and it changes I only have to update my website. So keeping the calling card simple will make it relevant for that much longer, no reprints for me.
If you are interested in having a calling card made for yourself or any letterpress project I would highly recommend Evan Calkins, he did an amazing job! He was also kind enough to send me some pictures of the process. Have a look below…
I would love to know what your thoughts are on calling cards vs. business cards, is one more effective than the other? or do they both have their own place?
