This business card design by Dorota Pankowska lets the people you give it to engage in some arts and crafts time. Made from melted crayons, the cards themselves can be used to color. The usable and artistic Crayon Business Cards let you truly make your mark.
Artist and designer Dorota Pankowska explains how she gives out these colorful credentials to potential business contacts when she really wants to leave a lasting impression. The creative cards also "really capture my passion for being creative in professional ways." She made the shape she wanted by using laser cut acrylic to form a silicon mold before pouring the liquid crayon wax into it. She made several versions using the same mold but with different colors and color combinations, from marbled effects to bold color-blocking.
