Contest Brief

We are looking for someone to design us a Zombie Themed Trading Card. (Front Side Only)

A few things we need to be clear on

- Colors should be light but NOT NEON
- You are creating the front background of the card where the text and image will go
- There should be a blood splatter in the top right corner of the card.
- The card should look like it is from the apocalypse with water stains and blood splatter (NOT ALOT) and the outside edges torn up.
- There should be a place for the image, text, a title above the image, a title above the text and a small area at the bottom of the card for the artist name that draws the image on the card.
- The blood splatter at the top right is where the land/attack cost will go.
- The card should be simple like magic the gathering cards but still unique. We don't want to much going on, on the cards.
- The card will need to be easily recolored for the different land types. Blue, Green, Black, Red, White, Etc...
- Again remember simple and zombies
- Your name will not be on the card but will be on our website and the credits papers we send with every deck of cards.

We will include a picture of the basics that the card needs. (the image is of another contest we did but the card is not quite working for us) We would like one that is unique and stands out from the rest of the card game out there as mentioned above)

You do not need to add any text or pictures to the card. You are only designing the card background that will be used on all the cards.

The card should have a spot for the title, land needed, power of that card, a picture of the zombie or weapons, Text box below the picture saying if the card is a land card, city card, zombie, etc..., and a text box below that for the info about the card.

The card should be unique to our game. Need to use 3 colors Red, Blue and Orange. Remember Zombie themed.

This should be made with photoshop as well will need the PSD file. Please keep the layers of the card separate so we can add in our pictures below and above the background you create. Please leave more room for the picture than the text box.

Last thing the card should 2.5" by 3.5" inches Thanks and Good Luck to All. Be Creative and Unique

      You're welcome. It's not fair while some of us try to do something nice and original and others take something from internet and just post it.
      It's also agains the freelancer.com policy try do this.
