NY Driver’s license? I think you may have meant to use the NEXT picture on that flicker page, which is a cool business card with cut-outs. But that? is just a picture of a regular old driver’s license.
It’s a business card, look here (click on “My business card”)
Great collection that showcases the designers’ creativity. Being able to turn a concept into a colorful and nice tiny piece of paper bearing contact information is certainly not easy. Great job.
great round up , did i miss the boat ;) ?

Some are very cool, but completely impractical.
Am I missing something? Why is Guy Kawasaki’s biz card unique? Is it made out of real stones? I might be looking at it from the wrong perspective.
Awesome, im going to make some kick ass business cards for myself, branding is numero uno.
@Pink Heels: because for me “best” is not “strange”.
Guy Kawasaki’s biz card is so clean and minimalist, the paper is thick and the style (“huge typography”) is a must for this year…
That’s It
Ciao!
Chris Fisher’s card is awesome! Love the mic :)
Awesome collection. I don’t agree with the Kawasaki card though. Looks amateur, uninspired and doesn’t belong with the rest.
I have to say…I’ve never seen a business card with a plant coming out of it…brilliant!
Amazingly amazing.. just stunned to see the creativeness… and i too got some ideas for designing business cards.. :)
Can I resend a picture of my business cards ? I mean I took a shity picture :)
check more photos of one card selected here “Fabien Penso – Photographer”

Hi Cat,
You want great cards like these? Get them here: http://www.themandatepress.com/
The Mandate Press prints tons of cards for photographers, including at least one of the cards listed above. There may be more, but I only recognize one of them. They print cards for Max Wanger, Pepper Nix, Nate Kaiser from the Image is found, Amelia Lyon (her card is out of this world) and a few of the Mammoth men, just to name a few. (Oh, and mine).
Great Design…
I have read your article and I have done with this articles.Thanking you
thanks for including my Sassen Design business card = )
Great collection! So many inspirational designs.
Also check out mybusinesscardesign.com
I wonder how much some of these cards cost? On my site you can get 1000 Cards for $58 including design and shipping. However we do not emboss or have raised lettering. Yet!
Awesome collection!
I think the stamp one has got to be one of the most unique ones I’ve seen. But it’s really hard to pick just one when everything has it’s own unique feature.
I showcase some really great design on my blog you should check it out sometime!
I love them all! I came up with my own unique business card idea at http://www.PromoBills.com. Instead of handing out a regular business card, I can hand out “Million Dollar Bills” with all my contact info. If you like them let me know and I can make them for you too and customize them however you want
