Love it. This is exactly how I made mine and I got some major hate for it. Everybody has a different eye for cards and what should go on them, but I hate clutter. I put my website on one side, and my name on the other.
Where did you print these, the quality looks amazing.
The question I bring to the table is this: 6 months from now, someone sifts through their business cards looking for a designer. From what I can see here, they will have to view your website in order to figure out that you're a designer. It is more likely that they will keep looking for a card that says designer on it. Don't get me wrong. I LOVE the card, actually tweeted it, liked it and bucketed it. Just my feedback. =)
@Matthew I can't worry about the random sift after 6 months. The goal with these cards is both filter the lazy and send them to what is our best selling tool besides the initial conversation.

@Brian thank you sir! I knew we might get some haters but whatever. Everything is subjective right.

Bold move. Love it. I was thinking about doing mine with just my name on one side, and a QR code on the other.

You're missing a few things:
— Your bio
— Your twitter handle
— Your social security number
— A witty phrase from a respected theologian/philosopher
— Your avatar
— Random references to baldness and beards
— Anything about bacon or beer
Please change this.
