Hi all - now that I have my snazzy new logo I need to put together a consistant look for my business printing.
I'm looking for a creative, clean look. Using black, white and grey (with grey to be a silver foil on some items).

I'd like to have a folder, thank you card, business card (probably to be printed on a frosted plastic so only one sided), letterhead, sell sheet and a trifold brochure.

I hope this isn't too much to ask for but basically I'm just looking to have it all blend together and I am not able to come up with a great look on my own.

The company info is officially:

Creations Scrapbooks * Photography Inc.
Edmonton, Alberta
phone: 780-710-0012
www.creationsphoto.com (http://www.creationsphoto.com)

The new logo is attached below.

There is no need to add text into the samples unless you want it as a place holder. I'm looking for designs that I can just fill in data as I need to.

The words "capturing natural, relaxed emotions" can be used in the design if you like.

Let me know if you need any other info.

Thanks!

Anybody with some ideas for us?? Am I lacking any information that you might need?

[sparkdesigns]

Can there be some more clarification on the sell sheet and the brochure? Thanks

[Creationsphoto]

A sell sheet would just be a sheet that holds pricing - so a bit more decorated than letterhead.
The brochure I want to do will just be a standard trifold.

I'm really just looking to coordinate pieces so I need a base design

Sorta like items on these pages (but tailored for my business):

[Creationsphoto]

Thank you so much for entering a design Sparkdesigns

We didn't like the concept too much. The vines look pretty prickley and the flowers are too cartoony. I'm not sure if the flowing image goes well with the straight lines you've also got going on. It seems to conflict a bit.

[Titania]

:yes:

[Titania]

and another one... hope you like them...

[Creationsphoto]

Titania - these are really great. We've decided we like the 2nd design better than the first because of the way it flows. The design coming across the top of the letterhead is a bit bothersome though...we were thinking it might look better down the side a bit or just coming in a tiny bit on the right corner.
Can we see how you would adapt the idea for a presentation folder as well?

[Titania]

sure! i'll work on your requests and will post asap! :yes:

[Titania]

:)

[Titania]

let me know if i understood what you wanted with this revisions... hope you like them! :D

[Creationsphoto]

Thanks for the revisions -

We would still like to see how you would translate the design into a presentation folder cover.

For the letterhead - I don't really like how the design has become alot smaller in the top now. I think it would be better to not have anything but the logo in the top left and I like the scroll design that was originally in the top right corner maybe with a few extra leaves stamped around it....

Thank you.

I guess there isn't going to be any other ideas from anyone else?

[DWAGENER]

Hi, I'll see what I can come up with :)

[Titania]

please let me know if i understood what you wanted, if not, i'll be more than pleased to make another revision for you... :D

[Patel]

Has this project been extending if so let me know?

[Creationsphoto]

Project extended to Monday.

[Titania]

:)

[Titania]

and another one... :)

[nutscreative]

:)

[Creationsphoto]

Thank you Nutscreative for adding your input - unfortunately we didn't think the design completes our image.
Titania we still like the first design the best but there is just something about it that isn't working for me - I'm not sure if it is the amount of leaves/flowers in it or what. Can you try the same idea with cutting back on them and keeping more of the scroll design going on? I like simple and neat and I think the design right now is just too flowery for me...although like I said it does go along with what we have on the website so it does appeal to me the most. I hope you don't mind reworking it again for us :rolleyes:

[Titania]

sure! i'll work on your comments and will post again asap...
meanwhile, here's a folder sample, hope you like it... :D

[sarah0811]

:)

[Titania]

revisions, let me know if you need to see more changes on this... :)

[Creationsphoto]

Sarah - thank you for your input - I really like the design ideas that you have put here. The business card seems too busy for me though. I think that possibly leaving the vines on but flipping the background to white and taking out the heart backdrop would help (I am looking to print the business card on a frosted plastic). The letterhead I like but I think I would enlarge the vine in the bottom right similar to the business card - maybe enlarge the center heart a bit more and fade it alot more into just a hint of it there as well as move the logo from the top center...not sure where though...

Titania - thanks for the revision. I was looking at the original version and finding an element that I really liked in it...not sure if I can add it on here but I highlighted it for you to see...it is in the top right corner and it has the scoll design with the leaves in the background....it is not too busy and I like how the leaves are kinda secondary...can we work with that maybe? Let me know if it shows up here for you..

Thank you guys!

[Titania]

working on a sample based on your requests, i'll post asap! :yes:

[Titania]

:)

[Creationsphoto]

Thank you very much to everyone who has submitted designs. We have decided to go with Titania's sample with a few more revisions.

Titania - could you change up the folder to a black base - we like the look you've shown but think it would suit the back side - for the front we thought we could keep the same design around the edge with the words "capturing relaxed, natural emotions" about 2/3 of the way down and our heart with circle logo about 1/2 of the way down...
The card, letterhead, and envelope look good as is.
Can you show us an idea for a thank you card and a trifold brochure as well.
Thanks so much for all the time you have put into this :)

[Titania]

thanks for choosing my work! :D
i'll work on your requests and will post again asap! :yes:

[Titania]

3331 x 2588 pixels

[Titania]

working on them, i'll post asap! :yes:

[Titania]

:d

[Titania]

and here's the brochure... let me know what changes you'd like to see, i didn't know what you wanted to put in it, so, i'll wait for your feedback... :D

[Creationsphoto]

Hi Titania,

I like the thank you card in the white but don't like the font used for the thank you.

The brochure cover you made would look pretty good for the presentation folder although I am interested in seeing that in black with the words I spoke about before about 2/3 of the way down. Also I think I would like to see more swirls than leaves around the edges.

For the brochure I am planning on using VistaPrint to print I am going to put a link here that will give a layout of the brochure cause it has 2 folds in it so is a bit different from what you have here.
Sorry.

Thank you again!

[Titania]

great! thanks for the feedback! i'll prepare new samples and will post asap! :yes:

[Titania]

i'll post the new sample for the brochure asap!
here are the thank you cards... :D

[Creationsphoto]

Thanks for the quick turnaround on that - I like the font on the middle left hand card. I'm thinking that just the circle and heart portion of the logo might be more appropriate for the front though as the title seems too distracting.

[Titania]

thanks again for the feedback!
i'll prepare that sample and will post again asap!
working on the brochure sample as well...
i'll post asap! :yes:

[Titania]

i did what you requested, took the text of the logo out... and i tried to make the logo a little less distracting by making the grey a little less dark, adding a sample with and without the text too...
let me know if you like any of this :D

[Titania]

hope i understood now... let me know what you think... :D

[Creationsphoto]

Thank you Titania,
These look great - I like the middle card and the brochure looks good as well. I would like to see the design extended across the bottom on the far left panel as well just to tie it in with the rest (even though it changes to white)
Last thing we need is the file folder and that will be it. If we could just combine the brochure idea with the folder that you made before then that should be great. The dimensions again that I will be using are at vistaprint again.

Document Trim Size
20.75" x 16.56"
527mm x 421mm
6225 x 4969 pixels


Full Bleed Size
20.87" x 16.68"
530mm x 424mm
6260 x 5004 pixels

Thank you again!

[Titania]

let me know if any of this options suit you... :D

[Titania]

:d

[Creationsphoto]

I like the first one the best - thanks!

[Titania]
