What does it take to create on business card? Paper and board materials are usually used to print them on but while there are a lot of these resources available, it wouldn’t hurt to use reusable boards coming from various materials such as cereal boxes to which business cards can be printed to look like new.

Sure it will look kinds different since the other side of the card carries the recycled side of board and initial design. But in this world of disappearing resources, it should be understandable that business cards only need to be handed out when the need for information such as home numbers come into play.

Stephanie from green.apartmenttherapy.com came by the other day. She was talking to our Sales Director Joe while I was running out to get a sandwich because my stomach kept yelling for food. Anyways, she left a really cool business card what seems to be made out of cereal box. Great way to save some trees!

Oh yeah, thanks Stephanie for posting Keetsa on ApartmentTherapy!

Leaving a business card at the reception hoping that it will be pasted on the right person is a waste of time; it is bound to end up in the bin. So how do you get noticed and get your business card in front of the person that you wish to see?

What better way of getter noticed, especially if you are involved in a eco friendly or green project, than have a business card that miniature house plants, sprouts, alfalfa or some sort of cress!

All the recipient has to do, is dip the card into some water and then the process begins, the card is in a simple envelope design, with the seeds inside, once dipped the card soaks up the water and then helps the seeds to grow, very similar to what the kids do at school.

On card you could have all you details etc as with a normal business card, great stuff.
