"New Card" All Roses

Unread post by counting-the-cards »

I am starting this thread to try to get some positive feedback about the design and direction of a new card design that I would like to release on kickstarter. Some of you already know me because of my last disaster. I am not going to launch this project until I can make most people happy. I am a graphic designer and have been, but not a professional cardist, but I am working very hard to understand! Below is what I have so far. I am willing to work on and change almost anything except the hand painted design that I did in acrylic paint. I could also use some main theme ideas. I want to change it from black stone to something else and remove the stone and setting. I need some help! Thanks.

Well if you take away the stone and setting what do you have?

A quite nice floral design borrowing from art neuveau and baroque influence, butnot much else. I think you have a solid eye, but need to find direction.

Actually there hasn't been a really good deck that captures Art Neuveau (for me anyway). Look up the Four Seasons by Alfons Mucha and tell me they aren't a set of perfect queens!

Looking to replace the stone and setting with something else. Had some negative feedback!
You are quite right about the image below by Alfons Mucha.
