some birthday cards......


some brithday cards that i like...

the card i use as reference. I drop dragon and put lion and drop the fire ring of the dragon and put cake. around the lion i put colorful lines that looks like some water color painting. and also use few symbols ....
The reason to use a lion is my nationality. I'm a sri lanken. our symbol is lion. We believe our people brave as lions. In ancient time we had fought with other countries and won many battles. That is the reason we get that name.
after the English people capture our country ( we have been betrayed by our own people.) our traditional way of living has start to change. so now our people calibrated birth days like English people. but we goes to temple. so i thought i must do some thing that connect to my nationality.
so i use Lion . i use safari look to show fun. kids always want some thing different. They are born with ability of searching .I thought it is like people going to safari. searching for things...

i use birthday cake to show how are we now calibration our birthdays. so i hope this care is good for a sri lankan kids..............

at last its finished. i add some texts and symbols to the background and play with a shapes. i use twirl tool to mahe some shapes looks bit carly. wow its wonderfull tool.

and also i use some symbels for leafs and the art in the background of the secondpage of the card.i play with transparancy many times to made this card. its realy nice experiance.finaly i feel its looking ok for final.
next step is adding words. I use two types of fonts. i think thouse two types are looks very funny and playfull. and one type of fount i add some broush effect . its become looks great.


I add grass and leafs to give some little safari look.i took leafs and grass from symbels. i put grss in different layers and try to make the lion is in a some kind of forest or ground. i think by this my safary idea become bit sussess.
