Creative business card ideas for an uncreative business

I'm designing a business card for my mother's freelancing business consulting service. I really enjoy looking at creative service type bc's, but was wondering if anyone had any good links or suggestions for inspiration when it comes to making a card stand out that's for a regular business service.

If you think any client's business is "uncreative," maybe you aren't the designer they need. Sorry if that harshes your mellow, but honestly, can you really find nothing at all to inspire you in the nature of your mother's business? Why not? What does she do? Even if all she does is sit and stare at a wall for 37.5 hours a week, there's a way to translate that into an effective BC.

Maybe all she needs is her name and contact info in legible type, neatly arranged on nice-quality card stock. Nothing wrong with that. Ask any lawyer. ;-)

I can see what you're saying. The ideas starting flowing when I got the "uncreative business" thing out of my head.

- thanks

When it comes to carbs, I prefer the liquid type. Gonna have to pass on the Spamwiches, but I have heard that they go well with sellitelsewhere soup and whywasteyourtime salad.
