About this list:

Once upon time, the only creative DIY stuff available was for kids. Coloring books, mainly. But now, for those of us who fancy ourselves "creative", there are a million cool things on the market to which we can add our own sense of design. And here they are.

so many online customizable business cards look cheap or cheesy but not the cool letter press cards from The Mandate Press of Salt Lake City. these guys have seven templates (or you can upload your own- line art only) and they are actually letter pressed on nice stock.

Personalized customizable letterpressed cards by Mandate Press

First to recommend

Description

if you're not a designer or lack the kind of taste you trust, let Mandate press give you a custom calling card from one of their 7 customizable designs or by supplying your own. The paper stock and letterpressing give it a very upscale feel and yet it's under $100 for 250 cards.

Their seven styles encompass pretty much anything any male or female might need. Choose from the secret agent, the femme fatale, the rockstar, the artist, the aristocrat, the pirate and the runway. Or design your own.
