O.K. the wagon is rolling before the wheels are on it.  I've been working on the menu and business card.  Clay-doh thinks the business card needs more flash - my thought was that the more sterile/black and white the card was, the more clean/safe the business would be read.  Clay-doh says the card should sell - thus color/pictures...

My first go 'round is with some higher educators, so I don't want to come off too flashy.  Oh, the "flare" is for the fire in the food, not "flair" for talent/gift.  I'm not sure about that one either.  

Any input is greatly appreciated.

The design looks good, but do one card each.

Sheepshead's right.

Color on the plate and fork and the comapss would go a long way and still leave it classic black and white for the most part.

In my opinion, a business card is just a contact...its what you do after they call you that they will remember you by...frankly go as "kiss" as you can on the card...mine are

A business card should be for providing contact info. I don't think it needs to sell your product- just me. I work for the most profitable corporation in the world and all our cards are pretty simple- mine looks just like the higher ups. Only color is for the company logo.

If you are going to be using the card to try and drum up business then anything that grabs attention would be good, including color. I think you are off to a good start just using the free advertising on the forum- I have hired a lot of folks off the forum- it's the first place I look when I need a local service provider.
