With designers constantly working for clients and having a limited amount of freedom in much of their work, the chance to strike out on their own and do something original and personal is a real luxury. The cards included in this volume represent innovative and cutting edge work. It should provide an excellent resource and source of inspiration for all types of projects, including: new baby to new company announcements; invitations from weddings to art openings; and moving cards; holiday greetings, birthday cards and gift cards. All designers and design firms, whether in house or freelance, create their own greetings cards which serve not only as greetings cards, but also as an opportunity to show off their work in a totally unique and uninhibited light. In addition they are the perfect project because they are small enough so as not to be incredibly time consuming, nor are they very expensive to produce - even with unique materials or treatments.
