business card design: cakes by kirsten

what i did ♥
removed the cake photograph original background, created concepts using a variety of fonts and quirky but cute touches, discussed with Kirsten how different things can work well for her business and business card depending on the way she wanted to portray Cakes by Kirsten.

what Kirsten said ♥
"When I first conceived the idea of my cake business, I knew Abby would be the first source of advertising for the company. She has such a flair for feminine designs, and that was exactly what I was looking for when it came designing my business card (and to be done later – my website!). There are so many companies out there that are happy to offer you complete designs for business cards – which is exactly what I didn’t want. I had seen the same business card used for maybe three other cake companies so I had to stand out from the crowd. Everything had to be original. Abby knows me inside out, and with only a few pointers given to her, she knew exactly how to portray the business – even with such a small space to work with. I had given her a picture to use in the design, and she emphasised the colours used in the picture by implementing them in the text and border. Abby really captured everything I wanted out of the business cards – and so much more than I had expected! Her extremely affordable prices also meant that I wasn’t left out of pocket once I printed them, too. She’s an absolute star to work with, and I wouldn’t hesitate about asking her to help me expand the company’s advertising. Thank you so so soooooo much!!"
