These cards should probably come with a health and safety warning!

Anyone for a game of 52 card pickup?

Brewing success?
LEGO
We couldn’t possibly do this showcase without a LEGO reference, could we?

A business card comb that plays classic rock music?
This one scores an 11!

The perfect card for a sticky situation.

Back to the drawing board.

Menu
A menu? What’s next, printing business cards on food?

Yup!
Just be careful your new contact isn’t feeling peckish.
Dog Biscuit
Dogs need to eat too, remember. Down.

“Our rates are pretty flexible.”
Scratch-off Card
Yay! You won my email address.

They say the life of an entrepreneur is deadly.

The perfect companion for the coaster business card!

Losing an eye should get you out of that 4-hour meeting.

Just eject this one from your cardholder to stand out in any meeting.

An easy way to get your business in people’s faces. Or mouths.
