Merry Christmas everyone! I have created four Christmas card designs this year. Using adobe Illustrator I have used the pen tool to create the graphics of the animals and yew tree branch. I used Adobe Illustrator on the iPad to create the snowflakes. I made use of the new radial repeat tool which is now on the iPad. I used the gradient tool for most of the colouring of the graphics to create some depth. I gave special attention to type and balance between type and graphics.

I have added the printed versions of my cards. I sent some to my family in Australia for Christmas this year.

The following image is a mock-up I created using Photoshop. I didn't have a printed version of this design, so I created one using Photoshop.
