This is My 3rd entry for Business Card Design Contest. I don't know if it is allowed to join a third time. More details about the competition can be found in this [post](https://ecency.com/hive/@acidyo/hive-business-card-design-contest).

I don't have professional design skills, but I enjoy piecing together images to form aesthetically pleasing compositions. 

My design involves examining the motifs/images available on [Canva](https://www.canva.com/) and determining if they suit my design. If they fit, I use them, but if not, I look for other motifs/images. 

This is step-by-step how I make it.
- Front card step 1 :

Just put the logo and give, that gold curve design I got from canva element.

- Front card step 2 :

I put the black rectangle fill it to the right and make it behind the gold curve design.


- Front card step 3 :

I found this rectangle with some sort of design like steel, I though it look cool if I put it in my design.

- Front card step 4 :

I put it behind Gold Design but at the top of the black rectangle and make the transparency 43%, so now my black rectangle design looks like this.

I started to give text and icons on the left of the text,  which I found on the Canva element. I change the color of the icon to match the design.

- Front card step 5 :

I put the barcode scan of [Hiveonboard](https://hiveonboard.com)which I generated from [QR Generator](https://www.the-qrcode-generator.com/mycodes/2yStGyLfp7j), and give it a text.

- Front card step 6 :

I add more text in the right of the Hive icon, and this is the final result.

Now we make the back card :
- Back card step 1:
![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmehh5skPDrHvTxrPjmmajANNgSHBSuq4FfGt2SrcekgcP/chrome_g7yvztx99m.png)

We uploaded the Hive logo and put the text on the right with yellow color.
- Back card step 2:

To make it resemble like Philippines Flag, I add blue rectangle color.

- Back card step 3:
![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmNjzKyjBwJbidx2yh8rXoQ1J9zDgRJ3ptZYcebDfYiJAf/chrome_xbkgmsmkxd.png)
Then I add some text with white color.

- Back card step 4:
![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmcfBzV9AMDdeviDHZLjW2W9R4piznMNUhQRoXNdWdrSXS/chrome_7posbmkbie.png)

Add the barcode of the Philippines discord, on the right corner, below the text scan me.  And I add a gold arrow design looks like below the barcode to give it more attention. 
On the left bottom, I put another blue glow curve line to give more variation to the design.
- Back card step 5:
![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmZLNk7wKxFA5jis2UxMptnV1Fr9rmwhciFi4iNHxA1sPJ/10.png)
The last step is to add a picture illustration of a Filipino person raising a Philippines flag, to show that this design was indeed made for people who use or like to use Hive in the Philippine Community/country, I put it below "join the community" text.
