The Blogcademy: Business Cards and Stickers

The Blogcademy Collateral

Over at The Blogcademy, we’ve been hard at work designing all our business collateral. First came the rubber stamps and next, business cards and stickers. And in an ongoing effort to help you outfit your own business in style, we’re sharing our sources!

I wanted the cards to be premium in both look and feel but also budget-friendly and that’s where Moo came in. I hadn’t ever paid the site much attention but last month, one of my clients requested that I set her business cards up with their specs and after digging around, I really liked what I saw. A lot has changed over at Moo; it’s not just mini cards these days!

Have you seen the latest addition to their offerings, the Luxe Business Cards? Featuring Mohawk Superfine paper merged with a rich seam of color (we chose black for these), the quality is really awesome. The matte finish has a noticeably tactile texture and the saturation of the inks is top notch.

We couldn’t decide on a back for our cards so I made two. The more the merrier! What I appreciate about Moo is that they realize not everyone is a designer and came up with 70 pre-made design templates for the Luxe that are geared towards a number of industries.

Of course, when it comes to branding our business, we couldn’t stop at just business cards. Moo also offers stickers in a number of formats and my favorite part is that you can upload multiple designs to be printed in the same pack! How cool is that? We have plans to use these to seal official correspondence.

We have more Blogcademy projects in the works I’ll be sharing in upcoming posts. Thanks for following along with us on this exciting new journey!


P.S. I wanted to mention that I wasn’t contacted or compensated by Moo in any way. I’m just really happy with the outcome of the products I ordered.

  1. These look fab! I am equally obsessed with Moo, ordered my first set of Luxe cards the other day and they really are gorgeous. Got carried away with stickers, cards and mini cards too but they make it so easy. Is it weird that I need your shape stickers just for general use? Thought so.

    I’ve been looking at Moo for some business cards for my art stuff that is still a secret. I’ve been looking at the mini cards and the luxe cards, but I haven’t decided if I want to go with the regular business cards either. I’m looking for good photo quality business card to put a sample of my art on the back (so you can even frame the business cards). Again, I like what you’ve shown, it gives me some perspective on where to go.

      Melinda: I tend to like more classic-shaped cards but when it comes to art-related purposes, sometimes the Minis are the way to go, especially when you’re putting different images on the back because the texture is more of a satin whereas the Luxe cards have a more textured, matte finish.

    They look amazing, and it makes me so happy that you wrote this not out of obligation but because you genuinely loved the product. I’m in my last year of university now (fashion design) and I’ve been seriously considering whether I should get some business cards organised now while I’m still a student looking for an internship, or if it’s better to wait until I have a “real” job title to print on the cards.

    • Nubby says:

      olive: Yeah, I wanted to make that clear. Sometimes things can become a little fuzzy when you’re unsure if content was sponsored and especially when it’s all positive so I wanted to let my readers know that I just think these cards are really awesome! I think it’s never to too early to print business cards but the key is to do so in very small quantities at the beginning as your career is in transition.

    love this, so gorgeous! but a quick question: you chose two different designs, did you have to place two separate orders or was there a way to make a multipack of sorts?

    thanks!
