Hi all, In order to get these cards printed in time for next Wednesday's crawl we need to make a decision by THIS FRIDAY so please send round any comments asap! Ffion x The Foxglove Trio's début CD, Like Diamond Glances, is now available from www.thefoxglovetrio.co.uk ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 15 Sep 2013 23:59:52 +0100 From: kennedy.linds(a)gmail.com To: team(a)towerravens.org.uk Subject: [Tower Ravens] Business cards Ok guys - round 2! These are all sized as printing proofs, so between 4-6mm will be cut off around the edges. This means that all the pictures/writing are places so they will be pretty much on the edge. That's why they look slightly squashed. There are 12 possibilities on the attachment, numbered across in rows. 1-4 show possibilities for a 1-sided card, which work out slightly cheaper. 5-8 are the possibilities for the back. 9-12 are different colour dips that were suggested, with differing amounts of blue and black. At present, I've altered the image taken from below when we had the new sword to create the lock, so it's not perfect. I though this gave it a bit of authenticity rather than creating a geometrically perfect lock. The image could be straightened up if you decided it was too wonky - but that would take a little bit of time - thus why I've not done it now. As usual, I've just done a range of ideas, to get us talking etc. Please say what you like/don't like and we can go from there. Think about the colour dips, the font, the spacings between text and images, the size of the fonts etc etc. If you like no 4's layout, but with no 12's colour dip - that can be arranged fairly quickly. I'll be on a train whilst you're at practise - so give me a ring at break :-) Lindsey _______________________________________________ Tower Raven's mailing list team(a)towerravens.org.uk _______________________________________________ Tower Raven's mailing list team(a)towerravens.org.uk

My favourite front is the top left on the second page. My favourite back is the one on the right on the 3rd row down on the first page. They all look good though so happy to go with whatever the consensus is and if there's no consensus I'm happy for Lindsey to make an executive decision!

Black at the top into blue at the bottom gives the highest readability of the 'All female dance team' strapline (and I think this direction of the gradient looks classier). If the edges are going to be cut off, the top right gives a better balance of black and blue than the bottom right.
