Magnum Ink Business Cards

I really do not want to call Magnum Ink a screen printing company because you will think of cheap trade show giveaway t-shirts.  Magnum Ink has been pumping out screen printed shirts worthy of being called art.  Magnum Ink is located in Las Vegas, Nevada and caters to many different industries.  Be sure to check out some of their past screen printing projects.  I am looking forward to receiving some new cloths in the mail.  Yeah Magnum Ink you can take that as a hint.  Haha.

Magnum Ink contacted me a few months back about designing business cards for their screen printing company.  I was excited about doing the graphic design for Magnum Ink because the only directions were to make it look cool, and do not make it look like a race car.  The card is not what some would consider traditional.  Some may consider the card as breaking the “rules”.  Magnum Ink operates primarily in the off-road motor sports industry where plain “correct” business cards would quickly find their way to the circle file.  If you do not know what the circle file is be sure to take a look at the trash can beside your desk.

The business cards will be printed on 16pt card stock.  They will be printed full color front and rear.  Normally we would add a UV coating to the front side of the business card to make it shine. We will be leaving the UV coating off of the Magnum Ink business cards to give them more of a matte appearance.  By not having a UV coating on the rear of the card they will be able to write in the pre-designed “write box” on the bottom of the card.  The write box is the white box at the bottom of the card.  On darker prints it is very difficult to write notes on the business card so we design areas into the business cards for writing notes.
