Foiled stickers for bottles.











I decided that I wanted to add something to the plain stickers, something to give them and eyecatching appearance. After all the experimentation with the foiling, it seemed like something that could instantly add to the black and white. 


I initially started by just using the spiky shape (name I have no clue....) with the type being foiled. On this attempt, the foiling didnt work that well and from this image you can see that it looks a lot like glitter and lacks definition. Neither will it add to the label. When I put it on the bottle, it looked like something found in a village fete raffle. 





So I decided to invert what I had done before. By creating the type from the negative space, where there wasn't foiling, it created a much better outcome. When I cut this out and put it on the bottle it added a foiled sticker which really added. I was very pleased with this improvement. 

 I also think the scale is right here, after several trials, this does not look silly on the beer bottles I had chosen. The gold also worked with the beer bottle top...
