Final Outcome

To conclude this project, I produced a set of greeting cards, following the 60s style. The cards consist two layers of coloured card: the inner card adds strength, hides the users' written message inside, and helps present the design. The layers are only connected by the two stapels at the spine.



The designs below where the original ideas, involving another colour on each card which is an improvement. However I didn't continue with this idea because the construction then wouldn't have look good. The extra colour piece could have been attached to the inner or outside layer, either way it didnt look attractive if the card wasn't flat- having a random piece of card stuck on the inside card, or blocking out some of the paper cut top layer.





This is the box in which the cards are presented in.





On the back of the box, it informs the consumer that the cards have blank messages inside and the name of the artist.
