Why It Works: A minimalist design makes your card look sharp and professional, showing that you know how to keep things clear and simple.
Bold Geometric Patterns
Geometric shapes are modern and fun. They can also show that your brand is creative and forward-thinking.
- Triangles, Circles, or Hexagons: Use different shapes to create a cool pattern.

- Metallic Foils: Add shiny gold, silver, or rose gold for a fancy touch.
