How to Make Funny Business Cards

When setting out to make funny business cards, it's crucial not to forget the basic purpose of a business card, which is to provide people with your professional information. Often, when people set out to add a bit of humor to their business card, they end up overdoing it and distracting the viewer from the actual information, which results in connections lost.

Consider starting with the important, business related stuff when designing your business card, moving onto the funny elements once you've included everything you'd like the viewer to have. Professionals usually stick with the basic information, such as their name, their employer's name, phone number, email address, and mailing address, but there's always room for more … especially when striving for humor.

When designing your actual card, reserve the first pass for the important information as mentioned above. Think about the layout of the information, the color of the text, the typeface of the text, and whether or not you want to include graphics or pictures. The more elaborate you go, the more expensive the card will most likely be so be careful not to go too crazy too early in the process.

Once you've completed the first pass, then move on to the humor element. Overall your card should strike a balance between professional in terms of what information the viewer will have when receiving it, and funny. It's always fun to keep business light with a little humor, but be careful not to offend potential business associates or clients.
