Green Business Card

This interesting business card is a design by Jamie Wieck. Even though I've seen similar ideas before, this still struck me as a fantastic way to bring a little nature into the business world. If lots of people started to hand these out, then I could start a little card-garden on my desk.
"For this project I set out to design a business card that a prospective client would want to keep on their table rather than in their pocket. The result was a business card that worked like a miniature house-plant, growing alfalfa or cress when dipped in water - a business card for 'another bloomin' designer'. The logo was also cut into a 'seed stencil' that allowed the logo to be grown on either earth or lawn; on uncut grass, the message would remain hidden until the area was mown." :: Jamie Wieck (via Boing Boing)
