Self-promo postcard

Here's my self-promo postcard project. A lot really went into this one. For starters, in order to make the otherwise gray floor some sort of color, I inserted a green-tealish and pink gradient set to 20% opacity, then used the Quick Selection tool to select the graphic design materials, created a solid color fill layer and selected pink set to 36% opacity so that the materials wouldn't appear too dark. I also created several squares, 47 to be exact, with most of the blue squares set to color mode at 75% opacity, except for three, which are set to Difference mode at 75% opacity, Normal mode at 75%, and Hard Mix at 75% respectively. Likewise, on the right, most of the red squares are set at Color mode at 75% opacity, except for three, which are set to Difference mode at 75% opacity, Normal mode at 75%, and Hard Mix at 75% respectively. This was to avoid complete unity among the squares and therefore make the composition look more artistic. After all of that, I used the Backstage Pass NF font on the top right. I have NLW (which are my initials) in purple, and underneath, I have "Abstract, Artsy, and Awesome" in hot pink in order to reflect the fact that I prefer abstract art and that what I make can look really awesome. I also used the SpacePatrol font for my signature on the bottom left of the composition in cyan.
