Design Principles | Post Cards First Draft and Colour choice

Here the first draft of my post cards:

The choice of the colours is nor random:

  • Blue: the blue represents something new. Quite relevant for a birth
  • Yellow: represents the achievement
  • Wedding: red for passion/love
  • Death: black, colour of grieving


Few things were not right:

  • I needed to add a second dominant colour
  • The black can't be a dominant colour
  • I put to many detailed elements. I need to follow the design used on the DEATH post card
