My very first... Prototypes...!

Checker Board Game

Here is a rough version of the first one.  

Recto of the card; there would be pre-perforation around the circles so they can be used to play the game.  

Verso of the card, after cutting all circles, this is what the card will look like.  The extra cardboard will be discarded.

Needs more work, I need to work on the format as I'm not quite happy with it.

Pop Up

I feel I have much work to do on this to have it developed to a good standard.

For the card to work, I should also have a combination of illustration/ photography and typography.

Calendar

Postcard Calendar, which would be personalised to whomever it is sent by highlighting their birthday.

Post It 

Front: Address Side

Well this is a little derived from a Post It block as such, however definitely inspired by it.

Back: Personal Message

All sides of the folded page have been perforated, enabling the pages to be discarded when full or no longer needed.

Box

I have just made a rough prototype of a postcard, which will have the template of a box.

Flat version

Using the rotary cutter to pre-cut the shape is a little fiddly at first...

Template put together

Once I made it, I realise more tabs were needed.

Mug Coaster Postcards

Recto

The initial size is quite big (A4 folded in 2).

To keep it shut, I think maybe gluing the sides and perforate them so the recipient can open it.

Verso

What do I do with ALL this white space?

Design, Picture, Typographic messages or quotes?
