Guest Red Dragon Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 (edited) Just thought I would add my tuppenceworth to the fray! Errm... My attempt takes the form of a small square envelope, the back of which is plain white, and carries the breeders notes on the strain. At the top of the envelope, (on the flap??) in a prominant box are the variety name, cross-variations and vintage, all in grey print! I was thinking along the lines of a clean modern look, hopefully portraying a classy, yet simple design using a basic set of "flat" colours for the centre design, which would contrast nicely with the "jaunty" Pegasus font! Varying shades of grey were used in fitting with the Fleur de Mal name, again contrasted, with the "splash" of red, suggesting a slightly sinister air! The clean, simplistic look is very easy on the eye, and does not detract in any way from the high quality product within! As a bonus, the pack would be immediately recogniseable as an FDM product from within a draw full of other seed packs. The coloured tabs, (corners) could be used to identify different FDM variants without the need to read each individual label! The "boxy" label design is "modular" allowing for changes to be made to the variety name, cross variations and vintage with the minimum of expense! I admit that I "found" the central flower, (tis 0630 for heavens sake) but a similar design could very quickly be free-handed and scanned in. See examples.. Peace.

Guest Red Dragon Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 Last one. Time for bed I think! I didn't choose the colours very carefully but you get the idea! Peace. RD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr-J Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 if you have problems uploading them because of filesize limits then you can email them to me and i'll upload them for you seeds@uk420store.com Got it, My idea was, to use stamps like these designed on the Royal Mail website, (although it would add to postage costs - £14.99 for 20) but on 2nd thoughts it might attract too much unwanted attention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StonedBrittania Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 Some nice entries there guys, especially like Chilli GD pack. Maybe the packs should contain a little more info on flowering times and the like. SB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
