Fina six cards

The final six card ideas, i am going to neaten up the text continue testing colours and also stocks and possibly embossing and foiling.







Inverted Colour test makes the cards appear more christmas related than valentines day i think this is because the text appears like white snow.

Layouts for vday cards

The heart shapes are easier to see when they are at a smaller scale.


The text spaced out makes them easier to read i need to work on this with the beginning ones.






The pixel hearts work much better and draw less attention to themselves.



I have made the text fit within a heart shape and used the existing heart shapes to fill up the white spaces, although i think i should change these hearts to the pixel ones.

New font for vday cards

The test by itself works best although it looks to boring and simple i will try and come up with a new way to lay out the text.











Adding the new font to existing ideas and testing the layouts.


Font i created by hand to make it neater i will try adding it to font shop to see how it looks.
