Today's weekly DIY is a charm-stamped business card.
Pretty simple + easy to make!
Items you need:
Hammer
Glue
Optional:
Self Inking Stamp (I got mine from VistaPrint!)
Pick your letters and hold the stamp in place.
Pound on top with a hammer a couple times to make impression.
For the triangles, I wasn't sure which letter to put so I just put an ampersand ;)
I typed out my company and website address with a typewriter.
For gluing the charms, I decided to use 2 types of glue, just to see how it'd turn out. A tape glue and regular glue. I used the 3M 700 ATG gun (if you don't have one, get one! They are magical! so easy to use and the tape is strong!)
Regular glue used here. Each works equally well.
and you're all done! and easy + simple business card DIY.
You could also just stamp the card since realistically hand typing the cards may take a while depending on how many you make. I ordered a self inking stamp from vistaprint for free! For only $2.99, you can edit the fonts yourself which is pretty cool. They have great quality stuff, I'm a fan.
That's it! Hope you enjoyed this DIY :)

Any idea if those stamps would work on leather as well?

Those are lovely! I love the stamping kit and was looking into getting one for myself sometime.
They look fantastic.

You must have read my mind. I was just working on some DIY cards at home last night for a blogger meet-up here in L.A. in a few weeks! Thank you for the wonderful guide!
I seriously think you should open a shop just making and selling business cards. You are so good!
That is the cutest business card I've ever seen. What a great way to make an impression.

These. Are. Gorgeous. Gonna come get one from you!
gorgeous! they look so elegant + unique x
I love these business cards - such a good idea and so cute!
I just glued some charms to the fronts of business cards a few weeks ago! I used glue dots. I used to make cards with aluminum star ornaments on the front and I used silicone caulking. That worked the best. Flexible and durable, but when you wanted to peel it off the card and hang it up, You could!
omg this ones are gorgeous! i wish to have a letterpress set like this , it makes such lovely cards and jewls as well!
Oh my goodness, I really love these! Great post and great job! They look totally rad. I need to whisk up something creative for my own cards...
okay, getting a rubber stamp RIGHT NOW, so I don't have to hand write all my slide business cards anymore. This rules!
These are so cool!!!!
These are great...thanks so much for sharing the idea!
what an awesome little project!

Well done for a brilliant idea
Very cute! Where can I find the triangles? Been looking ALL over :(
