Default Professional Designs Do-It-Yourself

Hi,

I would like to share some inspirational designs with you.

Creating that professional look for your company is so important in this day and age. For those who are thinking about this but cannot afford a professional designer (like myself ), here is a link to some really inspirational designs that you could do yourself.

I am happy to give any advice on the design layout if you are brave enough to do it yourself.

Just one point - plastic business cards are very fashionable. You will see some in the link. If you use opaque or slight see through material then do not double side them. Pete at PVC Printing - a forum member on here can do these for you. Good quality at a good price.


Link : Be Inspired By Design


Hope this helps.

Kay

Ooo I love the last one, the chocolate brown on plastic - looks so professional and expensive. Thanks for the post - wish I had seen that 6 months ago!!

Kay may I ask a question about designing banners? I am trying to do an avatar in 180 x 110 but my banner logo thing is just too big to reduce down. Is the rule of thumb that they must tie in with your banner or can I go for something different as long as the name is there?
