Baubles Green

All sorts of imagery and themes come to mind when thinking about Christmas and greeting cards and these tend to fall into two section, religious or secular. I do like Christmas tree ornaments, baubles in particular, therefore this was the starting point for this design. 

I created a pattern out of the bauble shapes, as I do love surface design and decoration, and filled them with stylised imagery associated with Christmas. A heart to symbolise love, two birds that could be interpreted in a variety of ways, and poinsettia. Decorative foliage is also a Christmas feature and, in this situation, has been used to connect all the elements of the design together to create a stained-glass window effect.

The red and green are typically seasonal colours with the blue and gold adding richness to the details, creating a luxurious design. This colour combination is one of two different colour-ways.

The depiction for this greeting card is a perfect representation from my meticulously hand-made paper cut artwork, capturing the textures and shadows made by the cut, layered papers that were formally a bas-relief design. 
 
Each greeting card design has been colour matched to ensure consistency with the original artwork. Once each design has been edited and placed onto my greetings card template, the artwork is commercially printed using a high-end digital, batch production process. My greetings cards are a standard 148 mm x 148 mm size and a vertical fold has been selected to allow your card to be displayed effortlessly.
