Graphic Design Final

 As always, the first step is a creative brief. You can find that on my teachers blog.




The next step is to find inspiration. Inspiration is key. I love to find inspiration. I have to match my logo to each of my business cards. At first, my post card was going to be a business card but I liked it better as a postcard. So that was my first inspiration, my logo. I thought it kind of looked like a plane, so I made my cards around a travel idea.  And I have a earlier post that goes over the process I had to make that. My second piece of inspiration was a website called Moo. Its a great Graphic Design website that gives you ideas on layout and other stuff. The two pictures down below are the cards I used.








Sketching comes next. This is important! You want to know what your card's is going to look like before you start. This is going to save you a lot of time in your program. You won't have to decide where you want lines or if you even need them.




Next come the design.  This is my favorite part! This is where you get to see your idea come to life. Try different ideas from your sketches. Maybe once you start putting things together you might like something else better and maybe you end to different ideas together. Talk to someone, collaboration is very important.

My post card came next. I had this idea for a business card first. That's why I it still has the travel theme. But I love to travel, so its all the same to me. I saw this quote on Instagram and used that to influence my design. I also saw a picture on the internet to help with the back of my post card. I really enjoyed making that. I used Photoshop. I got to discover some cool feature to make the post of post card.

Tips: when ever you are going to print something from a program, make sure you turn the text into an outline.
