Plan of Salvation Cards
Hey, everyone.
Over on my professional blog I posted some cards that I designed for the Elders in my ward. That blog is intended specifically for showcasing my "fruits," but I don't think anyone reads it yet. It's too new and is geared towards my clients. I would like some feedback on them though, so if you get a chance, please check them out and let me know what you think - either here or there. Thanks.

How does one use these cards, exactly?
Anyway, they mostly just use them as visual aids. They know that I do stuff like this and told me what they wanted on them, and I made them. I was going to put scriptures on the back, but that seemed a bit like trying to tell the Elders what/how to teach - since they didn't have any scriptures that they used every time.
In case you were wondering, the backgrounds are based on public domain images of the Milky Way (except for the first card). Other than that, all the artwork is original or significantly modified from stock elements including Photoshop brushes, et al.
My favorite is the first card (Premortality). To varying extents they all remind me of '80s music videos, though. Oh well. I didn't have all the time in the world.
Speaking of that, what do you think of the artwork? Specifically on the Spirit World, Telestial, and Celestial cards, I was having a hard time with the imagery. How do you think I can better portray a difference of condition between the spirits in paradise and prison, as opposed to different locations? Also, what about the three degrees of the Celestial Kingdom? And the concept of eternal progression rather than final resting place? These are hard concepts for me to represent visually.
The Elders asked for the circular worlds motif, but I'm not sure it's the most effective. What do you think?
