Holiday Card #4

Here is  a fun, yet simple Year in Review card.
 
Keep it simple with a single photo, brief highlights (5 or less words), and a paragraph for your favorite memory of the past year.

Choose your own colors, traditional Christmas colors, or choose colors to match your photo.

If you don't love the graphics used, ask for something different. I have a variety to choose from.

These customers wanted to announce that they were adopting. We changed the layout a little bit to include their state graphic, life in numbers, and a brief bio.

Most of my designs can have more (or less) photos than shown. These customers chose to have 3 photos, and they also wanted to show of  where they traveled, and used the country flags instead of a map. I love when you have ideas I have thought of yet!
I have the most creative customers, and I love that none of the cards I create are the same. You can see additional versions here:

Tip #1: Bleed & Trim

What is bleed and trim, and why is it important? (If you want to skip all the words to the end for the actual tip, that's just fine too!) One of the biggest issues I have run into over the past 2 years of having my Etsy Shop, is not knowing before I start designing what the print guidelines will be. It can be pretty frustrating on both ends to go and upload to the digital file to the printer, only to learn that they require bleed, or some other special guideline! Now you may hear this often, but not know what it is. In fact, I didn't know what it was for a long time. So here is a good definition of what it is: Bleed is the industry term for any color or image that goes right to the edge of the paper. What actually happens is that the picture or other graphic extends 1/8" (.125") beyond the edge of the page and that excess image or color is then cut off as a part of the bindery or finishing process. Is your head spinning? Simply put, if you want a 5x7 car...

Cake Inspiration: "Frozen"

I won't even begin to tell you how much time I spent on Pinterest looking up different party themes. "Frozen" seems to be one of the most popular birthday themes as of late, so I thought I would compile some of my favorite "Frozen" cakes. For some reason, this cake by {K. Noelle Cakes} really caught my eye. I think it's the bright purple & blue, with those fun snowflakes all over. It's not overwhelming, but is a lot of fun. Again, I think more than the actual details of the cake, I'm more attracted to the colors. I absolutely adore the colors of this next cake by: {Cakes by R.C.} I love the more pastel colors, with the glitter, and all the snowflakes.See more inspiration from this party {here} . I am all about simplicity, and this next cake by {Peridot Sweets} is a perfect vision of simplicity. There are just enough details so it's not boring, but not too much to make it overwhelming. I think my favorite part is the bottom t...
