very nice...i love the background....subtle but clear!
I think a better choice of type font ( easier to read) always keep it simple and lots of air on cards. Your background is nice question how are you cutting these cards? and how much time on making these cards maybe ordering online might be cheaper/faster.

The subtle background is a good selection for your wares. The font for the green letters is good, but the black lettering must have an easier to read font.
What customer demographics are you expecting; maybe those with older eyesight?
I have been printing my business cards for a decade. This works for me since I am constantly updating some information. I use Avery #8471 which are micro-perforated, so no cutting required. But your software may not allow printing to the edge of each card. I get around this by printing one whole sheet with background, then print again with the text.
Good luck!

The black lettering is not blurred as in the picture. I created these with Microsoft Publisher and I saved a copy as a jpeg. The actual card is clean and clear honest. As for creating it took about an hour of playing around with it. The background is a maple tree we found on our trip 2 years ago from Jamestown to Yorktown in Virginia. What a blast we had.
The paper I print them on is actually the Kodak paper I bought at Costco and I have a photo cutter so it does not take long at all.
I tried the avery cards and they were ok but expensive compared to what I use now to me it is a fun labor and not work.

A couple small critiques:
This seems redundant to me. You should consider using a different word instead of "creations" in the second line.
In the fine print, move "Wood" to the last line so it flows better. And "hand-crocheted" and "one-of-a-kind" should be hyphenated. So the last lines should read:
And a final, more subtle suggestion (my opinion, of course), is that the phrase "Creative Writing" is so common, that when I read your list of items, I'm inclined to think of "Writing" that is Creative, and not the "Instruments." So, I would consider using a different word, like "Unique." "Unique Writing Instruments"

Jerry; The only suggestions I would make is change the email GMAIL address to one at your own web site. Most (some?) ISP's include mail forwarding, so someone can send an email to info@cabinfevercreations.com and it will be forwarded to your correct email address. Some web sites will allow two-way email so you can send an email and it will be forwarded to the recipient and look like it came from info@cabinfevercreations.com
Hope this helps.....
As an example of this you can send email to my web site "coleman-family.org" with user "randyrls"

I am working on that. Since this site is through Microsoft Office Live I had to use another account. If my site starts working then iw ill be able to get that going. Thanks though for the idea.

I like the font for the business name, but the lines below should be easier to read and the background is too busy, IMHO. I would keep the cabin in the top right hand corner and just use a pastel background. It shouldnt take long to fix since it only took you an hour to produce...its fun to play around with.
