Business Cards – Felt vs. Bamboo?

Posted: June 25th, 2009 | Author: finnmiles | Filed under: Napkin Sketch Collective | Tags: , , | No Comments »

Here’s what happens when you begin a distributed creative services and art organization…you begin having text chat discussions on whether your business cards should be made out of felt or woodburned on to bamboo!

Josh: yeah…about those

i’ve had an idea for some freaking sweet business cards
me: yeah?
do tell.
2:03 PM I hope they are transformers…
Josh: hehe, not quite, but fancier than the standard thing
they’d be made of wood with the text burnt in and a design on the back thats like a puzzle piece of a bigger design
2:04 PM me: oh…way cool.
and when the puzzle comes together it’s the entire NS logo on the puzzle!
collect the whole set!
2:06 PM Josh: like this: http://www.ponoko.com/make-and-sell/show-material/82-bamboo-natural#main-image

2:07 PM Josh: oo sweet, they added cardboard, too

2:08 PM Josh: hahahaha….they have felt!
that rules
