A Card Analysis

Hello friends!

I have a very simple and yet interesting project to share. I thought I would make an analysis of this project. 

  By seeing the techniques mentioned and described, you may get some inspiration.

 Also, this may help you jump start your creativity if you are stumped for ideas to try as of late.

1. Ink to paper: if you are not in the mood to color or are lacking coloring medium, you can simply create your own color paper. By swipe the ink pad onto paper, you can create your own. I like to stamp the image AFTER inking. 

2. Three's company: odd numbers are visually appealing. I created three butterflies and arranged them as the focal point.

3. Add textures with Embossing Folder: textured background is easy to achieve. If you want to add a simple pattern, look through your stash and you can easily add that textures.

4. Movement: do not forget to add "movement". Obviously, there is no movement in card design unless it is interactive. Since this card has no interactive movement, we can add the illusion of movement. By adding splatter and metallic twines, you can FEEL the movement.

5. Add that Sparkle: Do not forget your embellishments. I love adding bits of glitter paper. Not only it adds sparkle, it also elevates/highlights the sentiment. Check out the sample card I made HERE, you will notice that I used the tiniest bit of glitter paper. It is so effective!
