I guess its the designer who makes a business card look great or pathetic, depending on the designer’s creative approach and sense of color.
But for me a variation of dark pale green really turns me off

A combination of gold and silver? a rainbow?
It really depends on the things you do with the colors. Some designers create amazing stuff with all kind of colors. Even rainbows.

I think the worst color for business card is purplellow, it reminds me of Barney throwing up or 60’s voodoo spell gone bad. I actually was given a business card from a hair dresser that was purplellow and I never went to her salon because of those funky retro throw back colors

I think the worst color is, a VERY bright color, so bright that you almost get hurt looking at the card. Why is that the worst color? Because if the person who got the card can’t read the card, then it might be a problem for the company.

The worst would be… white text on a white card… or possibly even worse black text on a black card.
But since neither one is a color i guess I’m wrong.
But no color is worse than cmyk 0-0-100-0. That hurts to watch… (°~°)

I think those that looks lik wood in a shiny paper… the best thing you can do with them is put it on a fireplace

The worst “color(s)” you can put on a business card are white/black because they’re not even considered to be colors.
Shoogle Designs
fluorescent green on Mondays, mustard yellow on Thursdays, and baby blue from 7pm to 8.03pm… on the 6th of each month. Any other time, magenta… unless you’ve had your hair cut.
Outlook Studios
A yellow background with white letter text using a cursive font. Hurts my eyes just thinking about it.
Rachel
Camouflage. End of story.

I think the worst colour would be cow manure hex = 99660B RGB = 153,102,11. It does not look good or sound like it lookes good.
here is a link to the colour

Honestly, I think it would depend on the type of business who’s using the card.
Let’s picture an ice-cream company with a “dollops of ice-cream” shaped die-cut card. If the card is pink or blue —fantastic! If the card is poo-brown, and is flipped-over on someone’s desk, you would never think that it wasn’t poo-related —unless the ice-cream company also runs a dog park.
To summarize— poo brown.

I think is white… for me more color more eye catching and more to remember.

I would have to say that is dependent wholly on the creativity of the card and its purpose. I’ve seen some great designs in colors I abhor – but can still appreciate them.
Personally I would never have a plain black text on white business card. Nor anything with overly muddy tones. I tend to think dirty swamp browns and muddy greens are amongst the most unattractive colors to have on a general business card – except where army training or dirt-shifting is your thing.
Colors like beige and teal on their own can be rather vanilla. There are some vomitous shades of purple and pink that make me cringe a little. Worst are the combinations of clashing colors that are tied together in an even worsely crafted design.
Cards should have impact – particularly for designers, and to be effective. Actually I think moo cards look awesome because of the ability to have different image sides – you can different colors for different situations and moods 🙂

I would have to say dark writing on a dark background is never good. I’ve been wanting to try these cards!
