Christmas Cards INFO...



Thanksgiving will be here before you know it... and I have already started designing Christmas Cards for people. If you want a custom designed Christmas card this year let me know.
email me at: CKMinspired@hotmail.com
$15-20 is the cost for the design file... then you take it to your choice of printer. I often do the "Cost-co" size for people; which is 7.5x6. If you print it there you also get free envelopes which is a great deal. However, cards can be any size you want... also you don't even have to print them... you can send them as a E-card as well.
Plan ahead, but I can do them from now until Christmas! or after if you really want. 
Feel free to pass this along to friends and family!! I am now doing freelance full time... so I would love some new clients. (From books to wedding announcements... no limit.)

And this was the back, with all the info they needed.

I AM A CHILD OF GOD

Typography is fun! I love the simplicity of this poster. I love the colors. 
She'd seen something similar online, but couldn't find it available for sale. 
Plus she really wanted it in a different color pallet, than what was out there.
It was for her new baby's nursery. She'd made a quilt in these colors and wanted one for her baby's room.
She brought me some fabric swatches so we could get the colors right. 

Have a favorite quote you want made into a poster?
 Let me know, and I can make it for you.

Christmas Cards... 2011

I don't usually advertise (other than a shout out on Facebook or something) that I do Christmas Cards... but I do them. It is fun. I love these simple designs that bring in the Christmas Cheer! I usually just do family and once and awhile for friends. This year I did my neighbors. She is having a baby just after Christmas. 



And here is one that I did for my Brother. Their son is on a mission... so using multiple pictures was a good way to highlight the whole family.

And... our very own.
We lost our pictures from our Europe vacation (hard drive gone bad), but had posted some to Facebook. So they had to be used SUPER small to high quality for printing. I had to think about that for design purposes. :) But I was happy with how it turned out. Would never know that is why we had small pics.

YW Subway Art

NOTE: If you would like a copy of this file, I am willing to send it to anyone who wants it for a small fee of $5.00 for 8x10.
If you want a 16x20 it is $8.00.
Please send a email to christina(dot)marcano(at)hotmail(dot)com
Thanks!



This was a subway art for a YW activity, I think it was for their new beginnings. :) They wanted it done in black and white so that they could be printed for each girl. Really fun to do, and also a challenge. I felt like all the words were really important. When she got her file she said...
"I absolutely love everything!"
— Jordan S. {Client}

I was so happy that she liked it. We also did cupcake toppers. I will have to see if she got a picture of them all put together. :)

Baby Stats Subway Art

This was a fun little baby gift to make for my cute neighbor, 
we were neighbors growing up... and now were neighbors again. :) 
She had pinned something similar to pinterest, so I thought it would be fun to surprise her with one.
Lucky for me she'd posted his stats on Facebook, so it was easy to keep it a surprise.

Andre and Tori!

 My favorite friend named Andre is getting MARRIED.
They tried to design their own announcement... but it wasn't working.
So, at the last minute they asked me to do it for them.
:) The result... they were happy.
Please get a designer to help you with your announcement, you can tell the difference.

Tori is from France... so the back of the invite was done in French. So pretty.

Royer Family Rules Subway Art

My cute neighbor from where I grew up contact me and asked to do a subway style family rules poster for her. It was fun to put together. I did a couple versions for her. I don't know which she used, but my personal favorite is the one above. 

Let me know if you want one too!

Kristi and Jake

I was so excited when Kristi asked me to help with her announcement. I loved that she wanted something black. :)

She also asked me to design the temple info card.

And to make life simple we made a little card to let people know where she was registered.

HAPPY WEDDING KRISTI!!

2010 family christmas card designs

I often design family members Christmas Cards... Here are some that I did this last Christmas.
Christmas is already come and gone. WOW! That was too fast. 

I love Christmas, but it is a busy time. We never even got these printed. I think I did maybe send one to my parents. LOL. Funny thing is I did several designs for myself, spent a lot of time trying to be fancy. Ended up with this simple design as my final choice. This picture was from when we went to Venezuela. Good times. Great memories. I got to meet Cruz's family... a definite highlight of the year.

Here is the one for my brother Alan and Family. 
Alan often sends his work clients a Christmas card via email... great option, when you get the file with your card.

And for my oldest brother Joe and Fam...
Ironically we all chose really simple designs this year. Maybe it was a trend.

Hope your Christmas was Happy.

BABY Shower Invite... boy!

In my ward is the Teschner family. This is fun because I know their kids from the singles ward, and now I visit teach their Mom. Christy and I served in the RS presidency... crazy to think she is already going to become a Mom herself. So excited for her and her husband.

Like always I do more than one design for a client. This time the client chose 2 of them for the final choice. She was going to print some of each for the shower... because she couldn't decide. :)

I love that they wanted to use more than one picture. I thought that it worked out well. They had such fun bright colors. Very cute couple, and so easy to work with. Thanks guys!

Kaitlyn's Wedding Announcement


This was a fun announcement. I love the colors. She sent a picture of a shower curtain to base the design off of. (That is creative.) I thought it turned out great. She was in a rush, and we were able to turn this announcement around in a weekend.
