for a card that mentions words like "creative" so much, it overall is kind of plain and boring. I agree it's very clean, but all it contains is fairly uninspiring fonts. I'm not saying it has to have anything fancy, but it needs "something" to show how you "creatively deliver". it's a hard phrase to believe when there's no proof on the card itself. I hope you understand what i"m trying to say.

Thanks Ldesign. I really try to keep things basic. I believe in the message not the decoration.

I think true design is simple, too many bells and whistles create to much distraction. Your absolutely right, it's about the message. I have always been a "white space" designer, but a couple of years ago, I found myself really adding the decorations, as you put it. That came from a friendly critique, from one of my professors from years past, he told me there was too much white space, and so and so on. Well, I found myself listening to him, somewhat. Why is it that we tend to think those who instructed us, know more than we do, so after figuring that out, I have made my way back to the simple use of "white space". I am always very turned on by the marketing of Apple, true splendor in its simplest of forms.
