Boxed Note Cards

Today we made our boxed noted cards which we had been looking forward to making. We spent the whole friday doing the process of this! First of all we spent our first two lesson selecting our best images.(*minimum of 5 and limit of 10). We had to choose photo's of a certain theme which was of our choice such as: seasons, holidays, birthday, nature cards and many more. Although most of us choose the seasons theme but some of the diploma team chose the birthday theme because they might have thought it could be something different to do. The next put our selected images  into a 'artifact folder' inside our 'creative and media'  folder. We then used 'Micrsoft Office Publisher' to equal all of the images in size in a post card design set up sheet.

We then printed the images out on a A4 sheet of glossy paper which came out 4-by-4. We printed each image at least 4 times so that the post card could be given out to more than one person. We cut them out and task 1 was complete!

Now for task 2..
We prepared to create our box for the set of note cards. But at first we created a plan/practise paper just incase we made any mistakes on the real one. After we got the technique we then staretd oto created the real one, we choose colours and I finished mine first I was happy with it. We also had to create a little info sheet on either the photographer or the box note cards just to explain what it is about or the theme. I chose to do a info box about myself but I did not finish it off.

Overall today was a great lesson :)
