The Business Cards of Alt Summit 2013

by

Hi y’all! I’m back from Alt Summit and trying to get back into the swing of normal life. It was the best, most exhausting four days of my life! While I’m still processing all of the information I took in, I decided to share some of my favorite business cards from the awesome bloggers and brands I met while in Salt Lake City. Since Alt is a conference for creative people, the business card exchange has become a beautiful and fun tradition, now in it’s fourth year. I have linked to all of their blogs so click around if you are looking for some awesome new people to follow, I still have some exploring to do myself!

Lexy from The Proper Pinwheel and Melisa from LuLu the Baker really blew me away with the time spent on their cards. I mean, Lexy stitched together glitter garland for everyone!

Alt set up these boards in the hallway for everyone to stick their cards too, so fun! I was seriously amazed by all of the creativity!

      thanks! I couldn’t help myself, I love organizing things by color 🙂 Yes, too bad we didn’t meet, maybe next time!

    Ciera,

    These photos are BEAUTIFUL. You styled them so so so well. Ps. I’m so glad you took the styling class and we met on the last day. Pps. WHY WERE YOU IN THAT CLASS? You are obviously a PRO at styling. Seriously, I’m in love with these photos.

    Thanks for including mine, you are the sweetest.

    xoxo, Shaunna

      Aww Shaunna, thank you!!! Well I guess I have flat paper figured out but beyond that I am lost with styling! So glad we met too, I LOVE your blog btw, it is so pretty – I have been poking around a little bit!

    How fun!! Looks like we both did color coordination too 🙂 Also – it’s fun to see different versions of cards that people did. Like the card I got from Michelle Edgemont was gold instead of blue! Too cool. Loving your blog too!

    Those business cards are BEAUTIFUL. I’m so intimidated when thinking about these and what I want mine to look like! Eek!

  15. Lexy | The Proper Pinwheel says

    Girl! You have such a good eye! I love how you categorized each. They look lovely! And I am so grateful that you featured mine. You’re wonderful! Now please go hang that garland somewhere in your house!

    Thanks for sharing this! I’m obsessed with business cards (I’m a visual designer) and I’m working on my own card for my handmade paper goods line.
    I particularly love tha card with the glitter garland!!
