Holiday Card #4

Here is  a fun, yet simple Year in Review card.   Holiday Card #4: Version 1 Keep it simple with a single photo, brief highlights (5 or less words), and a paragraph for your favorite memory of the past year. Holiday Card #4: Version 2 Choose your own colors, traditional Christmas colors, or choose colors to match your photo. Holiday Card #4: Version 3 If you don't love the graphics used, ask for something different. I have a variety to choose from. Holiday Card #4: Version 4 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. Holiday Card #4: Version 5 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 custo...

Holiday Card #2

The Holiday Season is slowly creeping upon us, so I wanted to share with you some of my favorite variations of the first holiday card I designed. (You'll notice, however, that it is not #1 but #2. Let's just say I have a folder full of ones that I started, and haven't completed!) Holiday Card #2: Version 1 This color scheme has been one of the more popular schemes. A nice mint-ish green and greys.  Holiday Card #2: Version2 A different color scheme, with a bit more information for each family member, plus a space for their beloved pet. Remember, though, the more words in the description there is, the smaller the type will be. Holiday Card #2: Version3 This is one of my favorite designs from 2014. I love the red and gold color scheme they chose. The map is outlined in the gold, and they chose to list their highlights, instead of put them in paragraph form. I also love that they chose to use their Holiday card as a pregnancy announcement. Holiday Car...

Back Designing

With the holidays coming up, I've decided to get back into designing. I have loved these infographic Year in Review cards since I first started seeing them (last year), and decided to make my own. I opened a shop on Etsy that has more designs: https://www.etsy.com/shop/BTADesigns?ref=l2-shopheader-name Here's a sample of one of the first ones I made. Everything can be customized, colors, fonts, wording, etc. Here is a slightly different version and example of how the design can be customized. I'll be posting more, but whether you're looking for custom Christmas cards, Wedding, Graduation, or Birth Announcements, or even Thank You cards Baby or Bridal shower invites, contact me for a custom design.
