If you are looking for an unique way to brand your business card, then you’ve got to check this post. I’ve collected over 80 creative and unique business cards from different types of business. Some of them are visually appealling, some have fancy die cut, some are edible, and some are just crazy. The examples in this post proves that business cards don’t have to be printed on card stock in standard size. Business cards can be done on any material in any form.

Thanks to Leah Oripaypay for some of the card suggestions

Great collection, really like the simplicity of the personal trainer business card.
Jeff Gillan
Great collection, thank you for sharing. The divorce lawyer concept made me laugh, and what a brilliant use of materials for the personal trainer. Superb!

Some business cards are just amazing!
Pete Batchelor
Some very clever and inspiring ideas, thanks for bringing them all together.

I love the divorce lawyer card. Hilarious and practical!
Kevin
Fantastic!

Really nice collection! Some of them are awesome! thanks
Kenny
I like many of them, but I do think that some of them are over the top and will barely have their use, except for inspiring.

Thanks for this terrific collection!
The Google one is fun :)
Cheers,

Amazing cards!

Wonderful, although not for people who like to scan in business cards.
ed
Wow. A list made up of other lists. …you even missed some of the better cards that are out there, and featured on those other lists. Also, a lot of these “cards” are prototypes or comps. Meaning they were never actually made on any scale, meaning they never “ran”, which renders them “fake”. Sorry.
Sean
I think the point here is promote the creativity and possibilities even in something as simple as usually mundane as a business card, not where the card was posted elsewhere or how many prints were made.
Krishna
Awesome list, haven’t seen some of these before which makes it really interesting! love the divorce lawyer one!haha :)
@jendyment
Love it – So inspriring – Think outside the box people! It can be done :)

Ninna
So cool and creative!
wilczy
yeah yeah yeah, they are all creative etc, but how many times can we look at the same cards? how about only showing the most recent?
Calvin Tennant
I wonder how many times anyone who has ever googled ‘Trendy Business Cards’ has seen just about every one of these.
How about some original content?
Violet
Wow, some of these are fantastic!!
And also, why such negativity?! TROLLS!
NZ Web Designer
I wonder how Google feel about their logo being used!?
robert
Google feels great. This is what they want and that’s why I don’t think is a good idea to use their logo on your card.
Trish Badger
These are really awesome! I’m still in search of my “dream” card idea!

These are really fun! Recently, I’ve been wondering, where in the world do you get business cards like these printed? I live in Dallas, TX and I’m having a tough time trying to even find a place that will do more ‘creative’ prints and I know a lot about design but not too much on the print aspect… like specifications, bleeds, appropriate dpi, etc. I would really like to see a post like that.
Jenny
Great list of business cards. Thanks for sharing.
Print Pelican
These cards look great! You’ve got some real talent…
ben
Out of the huge list, only handful of those are practical in everyday business usage. The rest are only useful at the trade show atmosphere to be handed out like a treat.
John
These cards are incredible! The cassette tape design is probably my favorite for simple tickle of my sense for nostalgia. Who prints these things!

I like how we got variations in the methods of creating bus cards. It has ignited my design psych beyond my imaginative limits. Give me more. Lol.

football
Nike Mercurial Vapor Superfly II Football Boots at Pro-Direct Soccer.
Ultra light for ultra speed, leave your opponent trailing as you burst past!
Superfly II is tougher, faster and smarter than ever.With a new adaptive traction plate features two pressure-activated studs for superior grip and instant acceleration no matter what the conditions.
The revolutionary carbon fibre outsole, enhanced forefoot zonal spikes and direct injected studs means greater speed on the field and bigger nightmares for defenders. The game just got smarter

The balloons are brilliant – a bowl of those on the table would go down brilliantly at a corporate event. Though I’m not sure how great it would be to take it away with you if you actually wanted to use the contact details in the future! you would look a little silly walking down the street with one!

You left out USB Business Card. They’re not only unique and cool, but very useful as well. You can preload all kind of content into the USB flash drives such as product catalog, videos, Powerpoint presentations, etc.
Additionally, they’re slim enough to fit neatly in your wallet or pocket.
