Ok me and my friend have a business where we sell handmade cards, picture frames, jewelry, Doorhangers, Posters, Chore Charts, and activity books / pages. We also rake leaves, shovel snow,pull weeds, and wash cars. What is a good name for the business? Please help I am trying to make business cards.

The naming of your business could be one of the most important decisions you will make. A name's originality and legal availability will create a real asset value of its own, as it becomes marketed and gains market acceptance.
The name you choose will become the focal point of all the benefits and features that relate to your business. Customers will be able to find and refer others to it in the future.
Since any names that are suggested here may already be owned by another party, I wanted to go a different route...
I suggest either hiring a name creation firm or get together with your friends and/or family and throw a "name party" & have everyone bounce some ideas around. Compile a listing of names that you like the best. Once you have that list, do as much free research as you can before you delve into comprehensive research.
I listed some links where you can do some preliminary name checking. However, please be aware that this is merely scratching the surface of what's out there.
Only comprehensive research will tell you if the name is truly available. But, these links are free & a great place to start, so I'd try them out first.
Comprehensive research consists of looking at marks that are similar in Sound, Appearance or Meaning in the pending & registered Federal AND State trademark files as well as the US National Common-Law files.
There are other sites that offer free searching capabilities in conjunction with their commercial services, so I'm not able to post those links due to the Yahoo! TOS. You'll also want to check domain names & yellow pages, so simply do a search for "free domain name search" and "national yellowpages" and the appropriate links will pop up.
Hope that helps! I wish you much success & happiness in all your ventures!

Assuming that you are minors, and are not actually going to run a real business. You don't really need to do any research or legal searches.
(I'm not a lawyer). But if you are just kids trying to make a little money, why don't you use your first names, for example Jill and Jane Enterprises. That should cover all you do. Good Luck. But if you really want to start a real business, you need to jump through all the hoops.

Your best bet would be to create two different business cards because you offer two completely different services. Most likely the person that needs lawn service, won't necessarily be buying cards or jewelry.

The Jacks of all trade. Or since you appear to be females the Jill's of all trades. You could use like the jack playing cards for a logo. Like in pink if you were girls lol.
