Notes

-passport theme? stamps and stickers?
-add texture somehow...fur?
-boomerang shape?
-relate to meat pie? look like the top of the pastry?
-make of wood, carving...
-kanagroo crossing sign (yellow and black ones)
-torn edges, more rugged (avoid looking too modern)

Innovation

I've been thinking and looking at other's designs for the business cards and stationary and feel that their work is really innovative and creative. Although I think my design would pop best on stark white paper, I feel it isn't very innovative. I wish there was a way I could incorporate some different kinds of paper or unconventional designs and techniques. However, I don't know how this would interact with my design.
Paige was showing our class these business cards that used cardboard drink containers and whatnot die cut into a shape. These ideas really intrigue me. The thing is, how would I relate something like that to the Australian Bakery. I feel like I should push my creativity a little more, but I don't want to get off track with the feel of my company or design by going too far. I need to think more on some materials that would fit, and maybe do some more research on what others have done.
I also have a question...how does printing on other materials work with copyrighting? For example, on the cardboard drink containers, those designs on there are probably already copyrighted. If I print my own material on the back and pass them out as my own design is that violating the copyright laws? Does anyone know?

Cute Business Card

I came across this business card while searching today. It's really creative and especially precious.
