Intitally I thought it might be a good idea to scan in some coriander, as it was difficult to print with. I will however not be using this image as it reminds me of a dodgy microsoft word clip art and actually the design generally works better without it as it is too cluttered with the coriander.
Also initially I was going to put the ingredients list on the front of the card and the 'preparation' on the back. This layout was still too cluttered and feedback from the crit people agreed and said there was just too much going on.
Feedback from the crit also said that people thought that the overlaid illustration over the print was much stronger than the print alone. This feedback I was happy with as I thought the same, I then progressed onto drawing up the remaining illustrations to go along with the prints.
It also seemed to make much more sense for the cards to actually be landscape, as the back of the card was probably going to be landscape for the functionality of the text and how it is read. For the composition of the majority of the designs it also works better than portrait.
