Jacinda and I just got back from ALT Summit in Salt Lake City, where we had a blast hanging together and catching up with our blogger friends. I also had the pleasure of hosting two roundtables sharing everything I know about getting book deals (that’s me pictured above, mid-animated-speech). ALT Summit is the meca of clever & creative business cards; every year they grow more elaborate and more beautiful. After the conference when I had some time to kill on Saturday morning after Jacinda left, but before my flight, I went through my pile to follow up with some of the amazing bloggers I met. The cards were so fun and imaginative that I decided to snap a few pictures with my phone and do a little post for ya, thinking maybe you would find them inspiring. So may I present our favorite business cards from ALT Summit 2014…
This card from Chelsey at The Paper Mama made my day with it’s wood burnished gemstone pin. She had lots of fun shapes to choose from, and I snagged the last gem, score!
This adorable card from Jensie Jean at Take Two They’re Small gets the point across in the most delicious way.
I had such a wonderful time meeting Gina from Willowday at the roundtable I hosted on Friday morning (she flew in to Alt Summit in Salt Lake City all the way from Sweden!), then when I got back to my hotel room I had even more fun seeing that her business card was also a tutorial! So clever, and who doesn’t love a balloon?

This collection of cuteness from Oh, Hello Friend includes a burnished wooden gift tag, two temporary tattoos, and a lovely business card inside an adorably decorated little envelope; but my favorite touch is the gold-toned, diamond-shaped paperclip.
We have adored Gingiber designs for years, and thought that giving out a gorgeous note card we could use and send was a great idea. And you know I love me some chickens!
Melissa Bahen from Lulu the Baker gave a most useful and beautiful business card, a little shaker of sea salt with all of her info. Now I will think of her while I cook, perfection.
These cards with a stick of gum from the ladies of Small for Big were just straight up useful. I had some serious cottonmouth going on after my 90-minute speak-a-thon sessions.
And in this case, one PR company made the list for me because I just thought this was so clever. Nicole from Daley PR handed out this postcard with a sticker “paper doll” and accessories, and all of the stickers are the actual products they represent. My daughter snagged this and immediately assembled herself a stylish sticker mama. I appreciate a good business card from a PR firm among bloggers.
Also, we were kinda into our clipboards we made for my How to Sell Your Book rountable…
Do you have a business card? If so, tweet us a picture and leave us a comment letting us know, we’d love to see!
Jamie your roundtable was awesome! Such a pleasure to meet you and thanks for including me in your card round up. Hope it was delicious after you snapped a pic 🙂

It was so much fun meeting you Jaime! Your roundtable was amazing and one of the highlights of Alt.
I am thrilled you liked my cards. Can’t wait to see you at the next school reunion (although different years!)
xo,
Alexis
