out there, it is important to use visually attractive design in order to get
people’s attention. This can be anything from an interesting use of colours, to
appealing patterns or generally anything that will make people look twice. This
article has been written to serve as inspiration for all you budding designers
out there who need a little advice on what direction to take. From viewing the
examples below, you have a better chance of crafting something that not only
you can be proud of, but should also successfully market your entity or
individual self. When viewing these photographs be sure to take ideas without
directly plagiarising them. It is important to be unique and create a clever
design which people have never seen, something which all successful designs do.</span><span lang="EN-GB"> <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB">Take a look at these examples of creative
designs below, there are 3 business cards and one billboard style advert. They
are all dark themed designs, fairly simple and great use of design:</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB">There are various forms
of advertisement for similar purposes, including business cards, flyers,
banners, posters and various other advertisements. The first example we have to
the left above is a very subtle yet effective use of purple and contrasting
light. This is an example of not over complicating your design, instead using a
sleek and attractive approach which serves its purpose perfectly. </span></div>

Next is an
interesting campaign, which uses the real light from the billboard to appear as
if the person in the poster is holding up the camera. This type of advert
brings an extra dimension to proceedings, essentially breaking the third wall
between the people viewing the advert and the advert itself. This is impressive
and is certain to get attention, alongside the next business card to note. </div>

This,
like the one to the right of it, uses a black background, with colourful
elements on top to really offset the card. Black usually gives you a better
opportunity to read writing on top of it, which is usually in a bright colour
to create the perfect contrast. These two business cards use a wide range of
colours, with the final example even using a cartoon person to represent the
service. Easy going, fun ideas such as these are recommended to attract
customers who appreciate the light hearted nature of design.</div>

<span lang="EN-GB">Be sure to <a href="http://www.nextdayflyers.com/postcard-printing/5x7-postcards.php"><b>visit</b></a> various sites in order to
gain inspiration for designing your very own form of advertisement. Though
these ideas above serve as inspiration, you should keep originality in mind –
you don’t want your design to look like something already out there, you want
it to be unique, fresh and original to ensure it makes an imprint in the
readers memory.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
