    Thanks to kdmax, I have a logo and now I need a business card design. Here is the logo[​IMG]

    I do not want the background grey. Feel free to make any changes to the logo that you want. I would like the colors of the boxes in the logo to be changed to compliment the picture that goes on the back of my card, more natural colors (see the picture below).

    Creativity wins :D

    Here is the information that I want on the card in what ever order/location that fits your design best:

    Hardscape Design and Construction
    Mark Rhodus
    Project Coordinator
    937.671.4755

    Patios
    Driveways
    Retaining Walls

    I will be having these cards printed from an online printer so I will need it in the following format.



    Full Bleed Size (starting document size)
    3.54" x 2.05"
    90mm x 52mm
    1062 x 615 pixels
    * Finished artwork should use the full bleed dimensions for best results.

    Document Trim Size (final size after being cut)
    3.43" x 1.93"
    87mm x 49mm
    1028 x 579 pixels

    * Please be sure to keep all text within the safe margin.

    Resolution
    300 DPI

    if you need more information about sizing you can get it here http://www.vistaprint.com/vp/ns/propath/ProductDetails.aspx?pfid=079&xnav=HowToDesign

    if you click on the tab half way down the page that says desing templates you can download a template for photoshop or illustrator.

    Your design can be horizontal or vertical

    Feel free to manipulate anything you want including the logo, just not my name or phone number obviously.

    The cards will be printed on a glossy stock so i'm looking for a design that compliments a glossy look.

    I also want the back of the card to have the same layout but I just want this picture to be on the back:
    [​IMG]

    I didn't think about it until now, but if you don't think this picture will work since it was just copied and pasted from the web than leave out the back portion. But if it will work, and have high enough resolution for printing than go ahead. Needing your expertise.

    Best of luck to all and remember creativity wins.

    Pays $15 with credit card to your paypal

    dude, Watari, that is awesome. Exactly the kind of creativity that i am looking for. That one's going to be hard to beat. Can change the red line that is in between the purple boxes and the test to be green like the green box. Also, can you move the Patios, Driveways, Retaining Walls to under Hardscape Design and Construction.
    Thanks

    Good luck to other entries! I still want to see what you've got.
