I had my business cards done. It was cheaper than printing my own. I am going to get them to do my hang tags too. They are the same size as business cards. Smaller ones I have to do myself. No one seems to do other sizes then business cards. I have small address sticker size ones for small things and a special square one for on the felted soap. I use sticker templates and print it onto card stock.

Have you thought about rubber stamps, Ann?
I did have a quick look into it, getting your own 7 x 5" sheet of designs doesn't cost much (a lot cheaper than what Office Supplies shops charge) I thought about getting some of various sizes, and you can put a backing on so it 'sticks' to those acrylic blocks and comes right off again.

Vistaprint do very reasonably priced business cards and you can upload your complete design. (I think vistaprint are present in several countries?) EXAMPLEI got some done for my dad a couple of years ago and I paid a little extra for a glossy finish (made them look very up-market). I designed the complete card then uploaded it - got it printed differently both sides too.

Zed I had never heard of that. do you have a link? Lyn yes vista print is in Canada and the USA that I know of. I used a place called "I need business cards" the regular pricing was the same as vista but they had a special with thicker cards for less. I asked for a font that wasn't in the designing part and they had it and used it for me.

Moo cards come in a variety of sizes. I haven't used them but I know several people who have.

Moo is expensive if you are not going to do the thing where they have a different picture on the back of every card. www.ineedbusinesscards.com/product_info.php?pid=144 these are super thick and you can get full colour front and back. My cards are pretty sample. Maybe next time I will "fade" a picture of some nuno texture on the back.

Ann, I don't have a link saved, it would have been a UK company. I used to buy whole sheets of rubber stamps from the US years ago, really cheaply, so google 'custom rubber stamps' or something. Talking about adverts, I saw a screen shot the other day, someone complaining about getting ads for gay porn on facebook and that it was inappropriate, so someone replied that your ads are based on your browsing activity Nice card, Felicity, simple but memorable.

Thank you Zed, I like dandelions as flowers and use their images in my works.

I like dandelions too, I didn't realise until I got my recent camera that they have such interesting curls in the centre.

I like your card too! The simplicity makes it look very graphic and sophisticated I think.
