Business Card Design Brief

My business: antiques, vintage and unique crafts.

I want a design that has an image of a sophisticated woman with her gold retriever. Something cartoony like that shows us deep into our work, so to speak (piles of antiques, vintage treasures and unique crafts including refurbishment of antiques and vintage stuff). When I say buried I don't been dead or the buried where you're buried 6 feet in the ground. I mean like swamped (a southern term) among lots of stuff. I plan to sell things like antique furniture (chairs, Duncan Phyfe couches, tables, chandeliers, cookware (enamel pots and iron skillets), tools, baskets, vintage furniture, and unique crafts such as refurbished window panes, rustic birdhouses, kids stepping stools. The kind of stuff you would see on Pinterest if you Google the word rustic décor. The dog has to be winking! My dog "Bleu" has a personality like a human. He hears you talking and he give you the strangest look like he knows what you're saying. I think he truly does. May I also add Bleu is a very prim and proper (English like). For that reason the dog in the picture needs to have a one-of-a-kind character. After all you know Golden Retrievers are known for their brilliant personalities! :)

My business is going to be called Maggie Bleu's House of Antiques and Treasures. I want something really cute, but classy, sophisticated, sassy, and unique). I want to stand out among the other antique vendors - the smelly old fogey antique stores. This needs to be something that will attract all including the young whippersnappers (young folks). By the way, I’m a 50 year old blonde that acts 20 and Bleu my redheaded golden is obviously going to be my business partner.


Hope this helps.. I'm excited and can't wait to see what you come up with!

Project Deadline Extended
Reason: Not sold on any of these. Needs to be cartoon like the dog has to have red hair and there needs to be some sort of antique in the picture. This doesn't tell my clients anything. I want them to know I'm different (CLASSY, FUN, SASSY, SOPHISTICATED, and VERY UNIQUE). My son suggested a cartoon like figure maybe this would be easier for your guys. I have a cartoon picture that someone drew of me awhile back. I would be glad to share this just don't know how to get it to you. It's on my IPhone. By the way, I am not paying the $25 fee to extend because I haven't seen anything worth buying so far. If this is going to be a problem let me know and I'll find someone here in my hometown to draw it for me.
