Here’s a one-sided thank you card I made. I wrote in the 2nd frame with a nice brown pen. It was awesome.
You can use it for your own thank you cards if you want! Don’t sell it on the thank-you-card black market. Everyone deserves to be thanked for something. Click to make larger, yeah.
A day late to posting, but I was a day early to giving, haha! I hope everyone had a fine Father’s Day. Here’s the card I made for my awesome dad:
Pattern & text (Adobe Garamond) done in Illustrator. Texture is from a wash I did using moist tissue paper and allowing it to get all wacky. I printed the whole shebang on cream card stock, wrote on the back, and stuck it in a yellow envelope. I like that it turned out to be a little bit disorienting, similar to that classic optical illusion. Scintillating!
I made a mix for my friend Q’s Birthday (Happy [super-early] Birthday, Q!). This is all InDesign, with lines + ITC Avant Garde Gothic and a big Colonna Q. I like how the red curvilinear Q both matches and contrasts with the lines in the background and foreground. And what is Avant Garde Gothic but a bunch of lines and circles? Yum: Lines and circles. When I think of Q, I think:
Thanks for being so awesome, Q!
