There are three responses to a piece of design — yes, no, and WOW! WOW is the one to aim for.

Computer graphics

Computer graphics are pictures and movies created using computers - usually referring to image data created by a computer specifically with help from specialized graphical hardware and software. It is a vast and recent area in computer science.The phrase was coined by computer graphics researchers Verne Hudson and William Fetter of Boeing in 1960. Another name for the field is computer-generated imagery, or simply CGI.

Important topics in computer graphics include user interface design, sprite graphics, vector graphics, 3D modeling, shaders, GPU design, and computer vision, among others. The overall methodology depends heavily on the underlying sciences of geometry, optics, and physics. Computer graphics is responsible for displaying art and image data effectively and beautifully to the user, and processing image data received from the physical world. The interaction and understanding of computers and interpretation of data has been made easier because of computer graphics. Computer graphic development has had a significant impact on many types of media and has revolutionized animation, movies, advertising, video games, and graphic design generally.

blog Bday Cards - Mar 14

Hi ladies,

Today I have a set of 3 shabby chic birthday cards to share created with flowers and ornate frames from the Spring 2013 Collection.

On my 1st card I layered pp’s, an altered paper doily and a Pink Paisley doily diecut, which I embellished with a cluster of flowers. I used the Ooh La La vintage flower and changed the pearl to match my colour scheme. I also altered the cream minuette flower with touches of Glimmer Glam and Glaze, again to tie in with my colours.

On the 2nd card I have used the ornate frame-scallop white backed with pp and embellished with cluster of flowers. Just use a pencil to trace the inside of the frame as a template, cut 1/2cm around the pencil line, then adhere paper to back of frame with glue.

On my last card I have used the ornate frame-gothic white which I backed with paper, and topped with a greeting sticker.

I embellished the frame with the camel coloured flower from the Floral Mix tiffany pack, which I altered by pulling out the stamens and replacing with a wooden button topped with a pearl embellishment, and teamed with a soft gold tea rose.
