    Final Image Preview

    Let’s have a look what we’ll be creating

    Tutorial Details

    Step 1

    Create a new photoshop document with a width 3.833 inches, height 2.333 inches, a resolution of 300 ppi and select the color mode CMYK color.

    actually I took a 100 pixels wider and higher than a standard business card size for bleed area

    Step 2

    Let’s make guides, open View > New Guide, in the box that pops open select vertical and enter 50px. Make three guides anymore with the following conditions : vertical 1100px, horizontal 50px, horizontal 650px

    Step 3

    Next we create an object box with rounded rectangle tool, with a width 3.5 in, height 2.0 in, radius 20px, and brown color (#563413)

    Now add these layer styles, add Inner Shadow, Satin, and Gradient Overlay

    Step 4

    Now duplicate the shape 1 (object box) using [ctrl]+[j], clean the layer using menu Layer > Layer Style > clear layer style, then give the white color (#ffffff)

    By using a pen tool, we will edit a duplicate from shape 1. [To make this you should already know the basics in using a pen tool, because in this tutorial I didn’t explain it in details]

    Change and set it up like this picture

    Change the opacity and fill from the layer

    Now add these layer styles, add Drop Shadow and Gradient Overlay

    Then the result would like this picture

    Step 5

    We just make the background image, now let us create the text. But we must make the new guide first, with the following conditions : vertical 100px, vertical 1050px, horizontal 100px, horizontal 600px

    First, we’ll write a name on the top right corner “Your Name”

    Then add Drop Shadow, Inner Shadow, Outer Glow, and Gradient Overlay on the Layer Style

    Next, give the name of Your Work under Your Name. Like in the image below

    After that we make more details info like, a phone number, email address and your website address on the bottom left corner.

    Give the picture beside of your detail info using Blend Mode: Overlay

    Then add Gradient Overlay on the Layer Style

    Also give a picture on your other information with the same settings.

    Here the final result
