31 Oct 2009 October Favorites – Flower Power Digital Greeting Cards

This week, I bring to a close the representative examples of how one set of four matted digital photos can be expanded in a variety of different presentations.  Though I have displayed several variations of examples over the past few weeks, the unique treatments have shown only one possibility for each offering.  With digital photo frame content, each new presentation format can be complimented by more combinations of backgrounds, color, and prose which bring added interest to your own eye for subject matter.  Each new photo treatment is created with the goal of increasing appreciation for the original work on display.

As I put together the greeting cards for the week, I took the time to design something that was inspired directly by the visual composition.  Some of the designs were easier to do than others, but all of them represent something that pointed to someone I know and enjoy being with.  This first card would be a thoughtful message to send to a friend who might enjoy receiving an uplifting message.

When I get started writing greetings, it never takes long to turn toward the humorous side of life for a quick chuckle.  The second greeting might be taking a bit of a chance to give your spouse on a wedding anniversary, so it would be a good idea to have a back up plan ready in case the sentiment goes unappreciated.  I thought this idea would work for those who are married to someone with a good sense of humor and a tight budget.

Cute, now what did you really get me for our anniversary?

My third digital greeting card would make a nice birthday greeting for someone who sees themselves as a bit on the nerd side of the fence.  If you think this item is funny, you might want to try this one out on one of your friends.  Of course being labeled as a “square” is a bit out of date for some people, politically incorrect, and potentially over the top, but who cares?  I liked the way it came out, so here it is.

It all depends on how you look at it...

My last birthday greeting card for the week was designed to be gifted by the over thinkers among us.  If you are the type of person who needs a justification for every action, and who will look at everything you can find before making a decision, then you may want to bookmark this card to come back to, when you have finished your search.  Rest assured that when you come to me to help you create that special greeting card you have always wanted to give; I can put together a nice piece of work that will not be found on every shelf in town. 

It is nice to think someone goes to a lot of trouble to find the right card.
