Hey all! I just registered here because I am stumped, and am basically unwilling to pay 75$ a hour (lowest quote ive been given) for a semi-basic business card design

Basically. I am a magician/comedian, so I wanted my business card to reflect that of a playing card
I have my initials in opposing corners, my logo in the middle, with my contact information underneith (see picture)

I am no photoshop guru...so any additional touches are welcomed.

But I am stuck for my back design, Im thinking of having a back design like a playing card, but using my initials. RB

I got the idea from my gf's workplace (bell) who has a tie made up of only the letter B

My very amateur photoshop skills means I am unable to do this :(

If anyone is willing to conjure something up for a back design, I would really appreciate it.

Here is my front design thus far (i wanted some smoke coming from the bottom of it...but no idea how to do that either lol)

I should add

My budget is very limited...I travel a lot (free would be awesome haha)
And need it basically asap...I have a huge non-paid audition gig in Niagara falls on the 30th at The House of Comedy
 
Yea I'll post any work/updates/ideas I have, if he decides to contact me. It's just hard to keep in regular contact with people that aren't on my e-mail :)
 
I actually like the front...ill see what my gf says (shes basically the brains lol)

As for the back...i wish I had a picture of it...but it was only RB'S

Although im totally open for other ideas...
Give you an example of cards that i think are pretty sweet

Once you pay for it(if you want it) I will take that out.

$50.00 USD via PayPal for the Full Rights to the Artwork and the Artwork Files. If that price is too hefty for you let me know and we can negotiate a different price for you.

I have to admit, i think we have a winner.

Only changes
Remove the slash from comedian/magician
have 1 ontop of the other

and my last name is Bennett

2 t's haha

As for the price...I travel a lot for gigs, and my costs usually equal that of what i get paid (horrible business model thus far lol) so im thinking 30$ ish? counter offer :)
Or 15$ and a pic of my naked gf haha
 
actually if possible, could you remove the fake signature from the rear, add a white border on the back...maybe make it look more card light, a thin white border
 
I am not sure if you realise this but printing Black Business Cards is very expensive and only certain places will do it. Most Printers can not Print white so leaves you printing black ink first except for where you want white you tend to get a lot of bleeding. I was recently quoted $300 for 50 cards with a black design.

So if you are going to pay $30 with a struggle then how an you afford to get them printed
 
Reid, take a look at this site: americasprinter.com

I have used them quite a few times. They do quality work and the price is right.
 
I guess this can be closed..i have chosen a design, and sent payment to him already.

Thanks so much for your guys help on this forum, ill be sure to visit it often!
