About this Service
Hello and thank you for your interest in my custom cards and invitation design services! My goal with every project is to create a finished product that portrays your vision in an engaging and impactful way. I always ask my clients what they like and what speaks to them before beginning a design. In the end, I want my work to feel like an extension of the client I am working for. It's not my project, it's yours, and I want my creativity to work as a tool alongside your vision.

***All prices will vary based on size and complexity of the design, plus the estimated time to create the work. Hand-drawn elements may increase time and cost.***
The Design Process:
Let's begin with a scheduled introductory call to discuss your ideas, inspiration, colors, verbiage, and all content required for the final product.
From start to finish, there will be continued communication. During the work week (Mon-Fri), my best method of communication is text or email.
For the first presentation, you will receive an initial concept per item or service requested, with up to 3 rounds of revisions.
Tools:
The tool(s) used will likely include the following:
Adobe Photoshop (pixel based designs)
Adobe Fresco (hand drawn elements)
Adobe InDesign (books, business cards, brochures, flyers)
All pixel based print documents will be generated in at least 300 dpi/ppi
Deliverables:
Once the design is complete, it will be packaged, zipped, and delivered as follows:
Original, layered file (for example, .psd)
Print-ready PDF file with bleed and crop marks in CMYK
Print-ready PDF file with bleed (no marks) in CMYK
Cropped .jpeg in (for web and visual reference) in RGB
Terms & Timelines:
Additional work, such as revisions or concepts, outside of the above written scope will be billed hourly at $50/hour in 30 minute blocks. There will be no discount given if fewer than 3 revisions are used.
The client is responsible for supplying all written content and high-quality images. If the images sent to me are not of the right quality, I will be sure to let you know. I am not responsible for materials that print poorly due to low resolution images or graphics that were provided to me. I am happy to source free stock images if needed. If paid stock images are requested, those will be added to the final invoice.
Concerning text, I am happy to edit or revise written content for best flow (my minor in college was in English literature/writing). However, if I have to create the written content, then that will be additional cost, billed at the same hourly rate.
A general timeline is 1 week for the initial concept and 1 week for revisions. All timelines are subject to the responsiveness of the client and my availability/workload, which I will communicate before beginning the work. No discount will be given for completing the work in a shorter or longer timeframe. Work requested in a rush may include an additional fee, depending on the turnaround time request.
Conclusion:
Thank you for your interest, and please reach out if you have further questions or would like to get started on your next project!
