    Hi Designers

    Thank you so much for all your hard work. I really had a hard time choosing between all your wonderful designs.

    I do switch business card designs from time to time , so i encourage you to not withdraw your top designs. As i can always award a second winning design when i need a new design, but i won't be able to do so if it is withdrawn.

    Again thank you all for participating.

    Dear CH,

    In my entries the QR code is easily scannable. As you can see it's bigger than in most of the other entries (I didn't check them all though but some of highest rated entries do have a fairly small QR codes which could later prove to be quite useless).

    The dimensions, bleed and rotation of my cards are also correct.

    Best regards

    Hi Designers

    One last note before i choose a winner. The winning business card design will be sent to http://www.gotprint.com to print my cards

    Please be make you have read the requirements for the tent card and actually used the tent card template to design the card. Which i think all of you have done.But again do double check that the requirements and the dimensions are correct.

    Link to check requirements
    http://gotprint.net/g/uploadTentCard.do

    I was not able to scan some of the qr codes on the card. I am assuming that will change once the cards are printed as i'm scanning through my computer screen.If you have a smart phone. do double check that it is working on your end.

    Lastly please make sure that the final design is correct with the rotation. i do appreciate you guys rotating everything to make it easy for me to view. But for the winning design make sure the files are in the correct rotation.

    I'm sure you guys have already read this, but i wanted to put out a reminder just in case. The winning design needs to have the correct specs and be made ready to print.As i won't be able to pick you as a winner if the dimensions,specs,rotations are wrong.

    If any of the links don't work. just let me know

    Thanks everyone

    Hi Designers

    I definitely want to make my website more noticeable on the card. If you are planning to use my logo on the front page. Please crop out the website from that logo, as it is way to small. I don't want the website to blend into the design, rather i would like it bigger and pop more. It has to be easily found upon looking at it. Same thing applies to the back of the card as well.

    A facebook icon or like us symbol for my facebook link would be nice
    You can do a icon for my phone number(up to you)

    Things not to include in card.
    -email address
    -the words "magician & balloon artist under my logo (if you were planning on using it) As the logo speaks for itself. For inside of the card feel free use the words "magic" "balloons" when you need to label the sections.

    A simple nice looking card that gets the point across will do. I know other designs are a lot more minimal than mine. but please don't make the card too busy.

    One last reminder. Since this will be a tent card, it will be folded down the middle. Do keep that in mind when positioning text or anything else near the middle of the card.

    Yes i do want both the inside and the outside designed. I tried to make the design process easy to understand for you guys by attaching 3 pdf brief with some ideas.

    Although if you guys have any ideas, please feel free to try it.

    I'm assuming that most of you guys know what a Tent business card is, but if not it is basically a 4 sided business card. Imagine it like a book. A Front and back cover, but also two inner sides as well.

    Hi Perry, I have one question. Do you want us to use 4 pages of the tent card or just the two exterior?
    thanks
