Minted Calling Cards

I think just about every blogger has written about the Minted.come Mommy/Calling Card offer by now, but I still had to share my cards with you! I ordered the 21st Century Girl Business Cards in Green and then uploaded something from my computer for the background. I wanted something more toned down and simple as I have some FUN calling cards from Muffy Writes a Note (they have the preppiest and most fun selection at a great price!) and these just fit the bill perfectly. I only included my name, phone number and personal email on these. Most of the other calling cards I have also have my blog address listed so this was a good way to mix it up and fill a void too. I just adore the final product:

Rather than just ordering the FREE 25, I choose to get 50 cards for just $5 more and I am thrilled I did. These are printed on very high quality paper and they came packed in the most darling box (which you can keep in your purse!) too! I am thrilled with how my calling cards turned out.
