33 Brilliant Business Card Templates

on May 21st 2009 with 46 comments

When GraphicRiver started I was kinda surprised to see business card templates start appearing in the uploads since there was no specific category or instructions for them. A week later I was even more surprised to see them taking over our popular files page. Today GraphicRiver hosts almost 300 business card templates and they are a staple of the site. In this post we’ve rounded up 33 of the best to showcase some of the designs you can grab for just three or four dollars.

Graphic Design Week

To celebrate the launch of GraphicRiver’s new Print Design Templates category we’re putting on a whole week of graphic design tutorials on both Psdtuts+ and Vectortuts+. The new category means you can now sell your design work to make extra cash On the flip side if you’re coming up short on inspiration, you can get a kickstart by grabbing a Photoshop, Illustrator or InDesign template via GraphicRiver. So to give the new category the launch it deserves, all this week we’ll be bringing you articles and tutorials just like this one, on graphic design as part of our Tuts+ Graphic Design Week.

      simply superb

  • Ohh yeah, that’s cool, nice, wow, great, no way! – bullshit..

    Please change “Graphic Design week” on “Graphic River week”.. Next useless article..
    “THANKS” for what? Is it so hard to on graphicriver.net and check it all?

    • tron

      you know, they have pills for the condition you are suffering from.

  • http://www.peterwessels.nl Peter

    Indeed Brilliant!

    Too bad my name is not John Doe :-D

  • http://www.dsaportfolio.com.br Diego SA

    Every card is better than other. Fabulous!

  • http://twitter.com/saurabhshah saurabh shah

    nice designs

  • crazywabbit

    I would love to see how these cards the designs would translate to a letter head?

  • http://bmathesheepfold.com/bruno/ Bruno

    What is the point of copy and paste articles?

  • http://www.albi-design.de/ Albi

    Great job and cool design. bravo

  • http://www.kieru.com Robert

    Corrected the text on the last one:

    “Hey My name is John Smith and I’m a Graphic Designer. This is my Business Card that another designer made. Keep it!”

    In all seriousness… these are (mostly) great business cards; but I laugh at any of these cards marketed as for web / graphic / print designers. Why would a designer buy a business card template? Why wouldn’t he or she make their own?

    • me

      I second that and would like to ask if we could have a survey to find out how many so called designers use/copy/steal other peoples work and call it their own :)

    • http://www.elandesigns.ca Boyd

      no doubt – what a joke! nice call Robert.

    • Nick

      Yeah it seems pretty pointless…I would make my own, and i surely wouldn’t want another designer making them, what does that say about the competence of the designer that they are for ?

    • http://creativeglu.com Denny

      Totally Agree!

  • -

    yawn… more graphic river crap takin up spots on my rss feeds

  • Andy

    Seriously, when did this site turn into the graphic river pimp? There is no point in coming to a tutorial site where every other new article is a glorified ad…. especially considering that many of us pay the ‘Plus’ free.

    • http://www.twosocks.com.au Two Socks

      Couldn’t agree more, not exactly “graphic design week” is it!!!

      Just shameless self promotion :@

  • CC

    I agree with Robert. While these are lovely, a designer should be creating their own business cards. Good for inspiration, though.

  • Estefi

    I agree with you Robert !

  • ForthMotion Productions

    I agree with the statements about making your own, but just so you guys know the tech card link isn’t working.

  • Evan

    Who…what kind of designer would buy these? What does the exchange sound like when you hand someone this?

    “Wow, did you design this yourself!”
    “Nope! Now that I’ve proven myself incapable of the job I’m asking you to pay me for, do you wanna hire me?”

  • Aislelyn

    Hi Collis,

    Thanks so much for featuring my designs.

  • http://www.graymason.com Mikah Sargent

    I am extremely fond of the denim design and the “Elegant design” cards. All are fabulous.

  • AJ

    I made a similar comment before on how I feel that a lot of these designs are good. I wouldn’t use them for myself as a designer, but that isn’t the point. On a tutorial website, especially during “Graphic Design Week” I’d much rather see tutorials on how to create some of these designs – and show how you can be creative on the use of business cards.

    I do understand that Envato’s team is trying to get people to realize the type of artwork that is available on their marketplace websites, and the tutorial websites are a great way to drive traffic, but I’m missing the quality tutorials that are normally on the TutsPlus network.

  • http://nbk113.blogspot.com NBK

    These are excellent designs..

  • igepe

    Nice templates we have here. I got so many inspiration on my next work. Thanks a lot guys

  • http://www.crearedesign.co.uk/ rory

    Wow these are freaking awesome!
    This selection of business cards are really raising the bar, Im a web designer and mainly only working this media but I may branch out now. Thanks for the inspiration!

  • http://crap I.N. Jekont

    Allmost all the cards I see above have to be printed in full color. Which client is going to pay for a full color corporate id? None. And graphic designers: design your own bizz cards!

  • http://www.mapsd.com.br Alexandre Broggio

    COOL DESIGNS… THANKS…

  • Alf

    I honestly feel kind of grimy when I use any kind of resources that aren’t mine when I design, there is no way I could ever use these templates.

    I’ve always felt that although these sites are very good, they’re like any other sites that have bills, they want/need money to keep doing what they’re doing. If promotion of these other websites on tut+ is keeping the sites running, I guess it’s worth it.

  • http://www.purepleasuredesign.com Ines

    Awesome collection….thanks for sharing.

  • joe hayes

    they’re good for inspiration though. same as logopond. but i agree that a true, experienced designer should not need a template. for those learning, it helps to sharpen their skills though i still hope they wouldn’t actually claim it as their own.

  • http://andreip.net Andrei Patrascu

    Indeed some great business cards! Really helps to inspire :D.

  • hen

    its make me big smile….inspire

  • mrigakhi

    Awesome templates…great inspiration..thank u :) !

    Really really awesome business card templates. Cheers for sharing this.

  • adrian

    what college course do i need to take so i can study about graphic designs??

    • http://weinye.blogspot.com weinye

      depends on which field of design that interests you the most.

      i did advertising and graphics design and now i’m doing multimedia design.

      both courses will teach you pretty much the same thing for your foundation, eg: photoshop, illustrator, etc. all the basics.

      with multimedia, you get to learn the basics of everything. like, actionscripting, html, how to design websites, video, basic photography, and loads more. since multimedia covers most of the design field, you pretty much get to choose what you want to focus on when you’re done with uni. more options.

      with advertising + graphics design, it’s more of like, print work, photography. i feel, from my personal experience, advertising is more on the creative thinking side. whilst, multimedia is more of the execution part of it (not that it doesn’t require no creative thinking at all, of course it does.)

    Thanks for the inspiration.
    The watermarks are just silly. If I was going to rip these off I could do it with or without the watermarks.

    As for the person asking about full colour cards – ALL my clients buy full colour cards – and so do I. If you’re a designer, you just have to figure out how it’s done. Perhaps your neighborhood printer will help you out.

    nice! thank you for the showcase. let me add one to the list for it’s simplicity,

  • Kate

    WOW! I love this cards! :)))

  • http://www.businesscards.uni.cc J32

    Those are certainly great designs and a good inspiration for every designer. Thanks for showing them.
    The Design Studio Business Card by EAMejia, SmartCorp 6 Templates by ColorX and the Hello World by Devilcantburn are my personal favorites of this collection. Well done.
