explanation:
Yellow: One of the happiest colours on the
visible colour spectrum, yellow represents the sun, childishness, smiling and
all round cheeriness! ☺
Why: I'm always happy, or
at least always being bright enough to shine onto unhappy people. I also
purposely used a slightly duller tone to the yellow because I know I am not
completely and unaffectedly gleeful. There is a slight shadow, which is
perfectly normal, it's what maturity and growing up will do to you.
Font: Draconian Typewriter
Why: I'm into books, quite old ones, and typewriter fonts intrigue me with their authenticity and age.
❄
Brown: Sturdy, and dependable, always in the background. Brown is down-to-earth and humble and kind. It's strong and plain but comfortable.
Why: I used the word "earnest" because I feel that brown is a colour to be trusted. That it is a trustworthy and eager-to-help kind of colour. The most sincere colour out there. I also underlined the word to emphasise on the down-to-earth characteristic.
Font: Bookman Old Style
Why: It is a humble font.
❄
Blue: Blue is a calm and breezy colour. It expels airiness and a sense of responsibility and independence.
Why: I used the word "breathe" because blue reminds me of space, and freedom. Breathing along with the sense of relief and content just correlates with the colour so well. I also put spaces between the letters to show off more of the breeziness and space, to make it more airy.
Font: Skinny Regular
Why: I used a thin font to give the word a lighter feel to it.
explanation:
Pink: A rather bimbotic and extremely feminine colour. I imagine this colour as a ditzy preteen who only reads celebrity magazines and always wears makeup and who thinks Romney should be president.
Why: I chose the word "whatever" because that word when used in the right tone can be the bitchiest and sassiest retort (mainly used by said bimbos).
Font: My Girl Is Retro
Why: This font reminds me of what you might see on bags or pencil boxes from shops like GIRLS or Teddy Tales. Cheeky and girlish.
❄
Purple: Of mystery and intrigue and curiosity.
Why: I chose the word "faerie" because what more mysterious than the magical realm where mystical creatures reside? Faerie are often depicted as two things. For children, they sweet little beings who only want to help humans and help the flowers grow. For adults, however, they could be bloodthirsty monsters with beautiful faces only for the purpose of glamouring humans for their own selfish use. If that isn't mysterious as balls then I don't know what is.
Font: Dyers Eve
Why: The overlaying of two fonts makes it look interesting and strange.
❄
Red: An angry and passionate colour. Full of fury and rejection and denial.
Why: I chose the word "no" because I like the simplicity of the word. The amount of hate and disapproval in one syllabic, two letter word is wonderful. Simple and to the point. No.
Font: Angryblue Controlled
Why: It's sharp and messy. It looks like it was written by a frustrated and irritated person.
explanation:
Grey: Bored and unmotivated. Depressed. Listless. Without direction. Grey is the colour of laziness and lack of emotion.
Why: I chose the word "apathy" because it embodies the colour well. Apathy meaning the lack of care about anything.
Font: Arial
Why: I looked up most boring fonts and Arial was one of them. I also italicised it to really capture the laziness and lacklustre of the colour, to make it look like it was too apathetic to even stand straight.
❄
White: The colour of utter simplicity and clear-cut, straight to the point.
Why: I used the word "clarity" because it makes me think of crystals and lakes so clean they reflect the sky perfectly. Cleanliness and purity.
Font: Passion
Why: It is a simple and professional looking font.
❄
Black: Classy, sophisticated, of grandeur and polished behaviour. Almost snotty.
Why: I used the word "distinguished" because I've always loved that word for its similar appearances the word disgusting yet meaning completely different things.
Font: Windsong
Why: Cursive fonts. What else is classier than cursive fonts?
