Fashion, House of Moruka Handbags, Natural Hair, Lifestyle, Events: Photoshop Touch

A couple of months ago I ran out of business cards and needed some for YouTube Unplugged. You know, when Google had the first ever YouTube Music Awards Show in October? Since it was 2 days before the event and too late to order from Vista Print because I was unwilling to pay next day air I decided to do it myself. I just got on my Samsung Galaxy Tab and started designing my little heart out.

This is the first version. Quite busy right?

I was kinda feeling it but something told me to consult with my design
team over at Bloggers Like Me on Facebook and thank goodness I did! I busted open Photoshop Touch again and went to redesigning as my blogger booskies guided me through the land of newbie graphic design.

I used the same social media icons that are on my blog. My goal was to make the card look as similar to my blog as possible so I used the same colours and copied the social media images from my blog side bar and added them in Photoshop Touch.

This thing comes with a built in stylus!! AWESOME!!

I then got some perforated business card paper from Kmart. I opted for the Avery brand. I've used it before with great results. All I had to do NEXT was go Avery.com and download the matching template to the 8731 paper. It yields 10 2''x 3.5'' standard size cards on one 8'' x 11'' sheet of paper. There 10 sheets so I got 100 cards. I LOVED that it was perforated because after everything I went through that day designing I DID NOT want to sit and cut cards.
