It's a cool design! I appreciate the balance between order and chaos (mostly random pattern of shapes, but keeping them in distinct lines).

Tiniest of nitpicks here, wanted to make sure it was intentional: the rectangular shapes on the front and back of the card have different levels of roundedness. More specifically, all the shapes on the front are more rectangular, and all the shapes on the back are more oval.

On the left is a rounded rectangle. On the right is an oval.

No not a nitpick, actually a really valid point and a mistake on my part!

I resized the items from the front to the back. Illustrator doesn't change the rounding to account for this so that is why they are different.

No shortcuts for me this time it looks like, I will have to recreate the slightly smaller versions (or convert the shapes to static objects so they can resize).

The desired style is the more rectangular style front the front as the buttons, containers etc. on the site will be similar (big rounded corners).

I suppose my other option is to mix and match them so I can use either style. Maybe I will do that!

Loads to think about!

Great spot, it is annoying me now..."thanks" 😉🤣
