To blob or not to blob....

Was thinking lately that my business cards look a bit "functional" (bland/not very arty), compared to other creative people.  
I've always aspired to be a good designer... but I don't seem to quite have that easy ability to design a flyer or a business card that arrests the attention, and yet says it all, at first glance!
Anyway, thought I'd give it a go.... and see if a blob of watercolour would be the transforming element!


Painted my blobs of watercolour -
Took them outside to photograph in the sunshine -
Found some nice poppy shadows made them look really attractive but probably didn't help the design challenge....

Distractions over, I took a blob and overlayed it on my business card....
So now I think it looks slightly more arty - yet slightly less legible....
But does legibility matter???
