CHRISTMAS CARDS

With the festive season ‘a-ring-a-ling-a-ling-a-ding-dong-ding-ing’ upon us, I felt it would only be right to tessellate some Christmas Cards!

Fortunately for me, the outline of a christmas trees has a similar number of concave and convex surfaces. This makes it perfect for tessellation!

After creating the tessellation, I applied some effects to pattern.

I used the same pattern on the inside of the card at a smaller scale.

I made cards in a range of colours. The outsides were printed on photo paper and the insides was printed on yellow card. I stuck them together with spray mount and cut them out with a scalpel.

Now, for the first time, I’m ready for Christmas early!
