If you have an image led business and you’re wanting to update your business cards, look no further. Read this mini review of MOO business cards; you’ll find them very hard to resist.
MOO Business Cards
It was Jac of Tinned Tomatoes that first alerted me to MOO business cards. I was so impressed by her gorgeous images that I had to order some myself. Unlike any other cards I’ve seen, you can have a different picture on the back of each one if you like, which makes them not only fun but a walking gallery of your favourite blog photos.
When I’m asked for a business card now, I can offer up several and ask the recipient to take their pick. It’s nice to get a few oohs and ahhs and watch while they make that all important decision. It offers a completely new dimension to a standard business card.
MOO Website
It took me a while to venture onto the MOO website as I thought it might be a rather complicated and time consuming process. But eventually I overcame my suspicions and duly ordered a pack of fifty standard size cards made using recycled paper.
I needn’t have worried, the process is really easy. You can design your cards and choose the pictures in several stages as it’s possible to design at any time and edit later. I chose two each of twenty five Chocolate Log Blog photos for the backs and on the front I used a section of my blog header photograph as a logo of sorts.
The real difficulty was deciding whether to go for mini cards or the standard credit card size which fits easily into purses and wallets. The latter won out.
When the parcel arrived, I tore it open with indecent haste. I was thrilled with the results. To have a physical representation of my photographs was a first for me and I was impressed with just how good they looked. They are more expensive than the business cards I’ve bought before, but so much better. They look and feel classy. It’s also good to have all my social media contact details together in one place.
Fifty MOO Business Cards Not Enough
No sooner had the cards arrived then I was regretting not having bought more. After all I wanted to hang on to one of each of my designs, Gollum fashion. And that left only twenty five of my preciousses. As it happened, I spotted a giveaway over at Kavey Eats a couple of months later for a pack of MOO business cards. Amazingly, I won and like Gollum reunited with the ring, I was bouncing up and down with delight. Thank you Kavey.
I was able to recreate my favourite pictures and add some new ones as well. Another pack of fifty was soon winging its way towards me. These were somewhat different to my first batch as they were printed on standard paper. Although this is sourced from sustainable forests it’s not recycled. The cards are thicker and slightly shinier.
The cards come in a handy holder with a “mine” and “theirs” tab to hold cards you are going to giveaway (maybe) and cards you collect. You can slide the top on and off easily. And very properly, the whole thing is made from recycled materials.
My photographs don’t do the cards justice. The images are crisp and clear, honestly! And a lot lighter than they look here. MOO don’t just do standard business cards. Oh no. You’ll find mini cards, postcards, stickers and labels also available. I’m sorely tempted to add to my collection.

Those cards are lovely the best business cards I’ve ever seen, although I think a little tug of war would ensue every time I went to give one away π
