Book excerpt: A Simple Way to Improve Your Cards This sketchbook is for A7 cards (5 x 7") You've seen this kind of disappointing card online (or on your desk). The background is a smooth blend of color, the die-cut flowers are realistically shaded, and the sentiment is crisp and perfectly embossed. But the card looks amateurish - the flowers are awkwardly arranged and the sentiment is out of proportion with them and with the card. The layout of the card doesn't work. Card design is a skill, like ink blending or shading, that improves with practice. You can find collections of card sketches online, of course, but if you want to develop your own skills you need to make your own. You can start by sketching your own existing cards. Sketch a card that caught your eye online. Pull out a stamp set and sketch 6-8 designs inspired by it. The more sketches you make, the more ideas you'll have. And then when you have time to make a card, you'll have a book full of layout ideas in just your style waiting for you. This sketchbook contains: Hints for creating sketches Hints for using sketches 50 pages with 4 scaled-down A7 card templates per page 50 pages with a single A7 card template for more detailed sketches Don't work in A7 size?
