Things You'll Need:
- Graphics or publishing software
- Scanner
- High quality paper
- Color printer
-
Step 1
Use a decent graphics creation/publishing program such as Corel. You can also use a program dedicated to the creation of business cards or greeting cards. You can also create cards by creating labels in Microsoft Word.
-
Step 2
Make sure you list your name, address, telephone and fax numbers and other pertinent information as well as your business slogan or information about your business.
-
Step 3
Avoid complicated graphics. You want something that will print clearly.
-
Step 4
Use a scanner to scan in photos or artwork for your card. Clip art tends to look cheap and unprofessional.
-
Step 5
Select one or two colors and print them on a white or off-white background. Simplicity is the key here.
-
Step 6
Use high quality paper such as linen or fiber stone. Make sure the paper you choose is compatible with your printer.
