I've decided on a concept for my business cards for a business I am working on creating, called Stories from the Hearth. Through the business, I will be helping people write down their life stories.
With business cards, you want to make them informative, memorable and professional, right? So my idea is to have all my contact information on one side and a quote about life and/or stories on the other.
This post is going to be a list of quotes I'm considering, partially so I can stare at them more and partially so if you have any input, you can give it!
