I've designed a small, city-specific series of greeting cards which I plan to expand on. Stylistically, I'm fascinated with the jazz age, hollywood glamour, glitz and anything from the 1920's to the 1950's. I love the color palettes from back then: the Hollywood pastel décor colors of the 50's especially. However, there is a separate but similar theme which I'm even more inspired by which encompasses the older, black and white, colorized images with darker contrasts. Colors in this category are less pastel and heavy on the dark wine/burgundy, plum, deep pine and greyed out teals with dark silver accent. Here is my modernized interpretation of this look in my new Chicago-themed birthday card. The inside of this card reads, "Have a razzle-dazzle birthday!"
I have more cards in this style in my Christmas collection!
