Picture Cards

I have been thinking about what to do for the picture cards. I know I wanted them to have an image on, and then some information about the image next to/on the back of the card. I began to design on InDesign but the problem I had was that I didn't have enough text to put on the back without it looking lost. So I decided to put the text on the front, on the actual image. This will help the cards to look busy and not empty. I got through Chris Hare's book, 'Through the Hard Times and Good', to gather some images and information.

I found 4 different images that I liked, and thought would interest other people and began to design my cards. I found with most of them that I couldn't just put text on top of the images because the background is too busy. So I made a separate box and brought the transparency down so you can still see the image behind the box but also read the text. 

Below are my final designs.
