How To Create A Standout Business Card

Your business card represents you and your business. When designing your business card be sure that it makes the statement you want to send and add that extra punch so it stands out above the rest.

Give serious consideration to the type of business you have and how you want to be remembered. One example is the Verde Boutique which let’s you make a splash. This business card example shows that they are stylish and interesting. It allows you to include your company name, name, title, address, and all the necessary contact information including address, phone, email and website. An extra touch that I just love is that it allows you to upload a photo on the back of the business card. It is a great way to keep your name and face fresh in your customer’s mind.

Depending on the business you are promoting, I would suggest uploading your logo. Some business are truly recognized by their logo. Just putting your logo makes a statement all its own. If you are in the entertainment industry, consider going with a black card and neon print. Be sure to add your Instagram, Twitter and Facebook account information. Another great way to connect to your online world is adding a QR code right on your business card.

My Appreciation for Cards Assortments

Sometimes one card design isn’t enough, or by the time you remember the occasion it is too late to order cards! In these cases, an all-occasion assortment box of cards can come in very handy. With cards covering birthdays, anniversaries and everything in between; you can be sure to be prepared for all last minute card needs with an all-occasion assortment box on hand.

The assortment of all-occasion cards found in these boxes are varied enough to ensure a selection that will please even the most particular card sender. There are also birthday, sympathy, thank you, holiday, get well and congratulations boxes available – if you know the occasion you want to be prepared for. Or if you are looking for a more on demand need, you may consider picking up a religious art or fine art assortment box. These blank cards can be individually tailored for occasions as they happen. Your recipients will surely appreciate the unique card designs contained therein as you pick the perfect design for the occasion in question.

The cards you will find in any of the assortment boxes are the same outstanding quality that Prudent proudly stands behind and knowing these cards cannot be found in stores will give you piece of mind that your sentiment will not be lost in the deluge of cards people often receive on special occasions. Thirty-five cards can be found in each box along with envelopes for each. Many people give an assortment box as a gift for birthday or holidays with positive results. People can always find a use for greeting cards. We appreciate the flexibility and variety found in our card assortments, and we think you will too! After all, variety is the spice of life.

Sending Baby Congratulations Cards

Recognizing milestones with a greeting card makes such an impact on someone’s life. Having a baby is such a special time in anyone’s life so this makes for the perfect time to add light to an already special moment with a Baby Congratulations Card.
The Gallery Collection offers new baby photo mounted cards that are so dynamic with their foil designs and embossed stamping. They are sure to bring on smiles when received.

The Colorful Baby Congrats cards in particular is a simple card perfect for whether the bundle of joy is a little prince or precious princess. The stripes and polka dotted details add the perfect touch to the card.

Lately, I’m a fan of the vertical orientation cards as they offer something a little different. The Congrats Mobile Card is just delightful. The mobile is dangling sheep set against a backdrop of the blue sky and stars.

Another of my favorites is the Welcome Baby Card. The banner across the top with the clothes line below is so different. The onesie, sock and bag hanging from the line are nice touches, but what really makes me smile is the floppy bunny suspended by a clothes pin.

Customize your card with a greeting wishing the new family happiness with their new bundle of joy and best wishes for a fun-filled future.

Birthday Greeting Cards Are Special


Birthday cards are a special way to celebrate someone’s birthday. They are a thoughtful and personal gift that shows the recipient that you care about them.

There are many things that make birthday cards so special. First, they are a physical manifestation of your care and appreciation for the recipient. In today’s digital world, it is all too easy to send a quick text message or email to wish someone a happy birthday. However, a birthday card is a tangible object that the recipient can hold onto and cherish for years to come.

Second, birthday cards are a way to show the recipient that you have put thought into their gift. When you take the time to choose and write a birthday card, it shows the recipient that you have taken the time to think about them and what they would like. Even if the card is simple, the gesture is meaningful.

Lastly, birthday cards are a way to create lasting memories. Birthday cards can become cherished keepsakes that the recipient will treasure for years to come. They can look back at the cards and read your messages to reminisce about their special day and all the people who care about them.

Hooray for the Fourth of July

Family, Friends, Food, Fireworks! What can be better? Every year across America people are celebrating the birth of our country. It’s a great holiday and enjoyed in all 50 states. I wonder how many people stop to think why we are celebrating or is it just another holiday. The Fourth of July also known as Independence day screams to me history. Don’t get me wrong I love the fun and sun, but I also love the reason we celebrate. My company sends a Fourth of July card as a remembrance. I look forward to this every year.

In 1776 the Continental Congress voted on July 2 to declare their independence from Great Britain. The day we celebrate is July 4 because that is the date on the actual declaration and that is when it is signed. If you read history you will note how powerful these words were in 1776. “When in the course of human events…..” stirred the hearts of men in all walks of life. The founding fathers were a courageous group of men. We remember them often. Perhaps you don’t know that John Adams and Thomas Jefferson were two of three signers to become president. They both died on the 50th anniversary, July 4, 1826.  James Monroe also a founding father, died on July 4, 1831. I wonder about the coincidence of that.

I am inspired this year to reread the Declaration of Independence in honor of these brave men. Then it is time for hot dogs, ice cream and fireworks. Make sure to send out your July 4th cards and have a great holiday!
