Business card designs should pass what is known as the "trash test", which means that it will not ultimately get tossed into the trash or filed away. The size of your business card should be a standard 3.5 x 2 inches so that it will fit into wallets and card holders with ease.

Anything larger is likely to end up in the trash. You should invest in quality paper to project a professional image with your business card. Cheap cards are more likely to get trashed.
