Buisness card tutorial

This was the first business card I created by following the tutorial on moodle. I found it pretty simple and easy to do. I thought I had done everything right but nearer to the end I started wondering if I had done something wrong. When it came to adding the text to the card it was all blurred and I couldn't see what I was writing which made it very difficult. Also with adding my entials to it in the corner for my logo it was blurred so again I struggled with that problem. I understood everything and could follow the steps really quickly and easily but I'm not sure I have completely done it right. If I was to re do this design I would change the font's around abit as this time I could hardly see the text. I would have inserted a picture relevant to the company on the business card just to make it look better.
I made my second one but didn't stick to the tutorial exactly. I managed my own size of the business card as I didnt want blurry writing again. I added relevant pictures to this business card and I think it looks a load better than the first. I used the quick selection tool and cropped round the pictures to get the right croppings of the photo without the white background. I added on a emergency number to make the business card look a little more professional. 
The second one I created I changed the colors round so that they aren't the same. I changed the logo to a much easier one to notice as it was pre made and has a nice white background along with a nice logo. I did this one on a nail company so instead of adding the tool's, I added nail polish's. I used a different font and color to make it stand out with the background. I then added on the back of the card an address as i aimed this business at a local street store. 
The third design I used the same logo as I really like it and it suits the background. I used white font because of the phrase 'white wedding' and most wedding dresses are often white and are stereotyped to be white. I changed on the back of this one, I added when the opening and closing times were. I tried to think of something to change it from all the above ones.
For my last ones I created a dog carer one and I changed the colors again and I then used a dog themed background so that as soon as someone was to pick it up they would know it was something to do with animals. I changed on the back what details exactly this company would do for anyone that was interested in the company. For the dog image I also had to draw on a lead because I couldn't quick select it as it was so thin.
