I just designed my new cards myself. I figure, if the real estate is there, utilize it! Using both sides of the card allows more space for information about you and your business or more examples of your work.

Doubled sided... front is UV coated and back is matte so you can write on it if necessary.

Good arguments for both.... However, mine is double-sided.

Double-sided, but left plenty of room on back for notes.

Double sided - that way when they see your card - they see your card and not the blank side
