Countdown Signage


Not my best work, but created a countdown signage for my cousin's bridal shower to use with the human-sized polaroid frame to use for photo ops.

Materials:

- glitter
- scissors
- cardstock paper
- flowers
- hot glue-gun
- double-sided tape

I outlined where I would place everything before drawing or cutting out the letterings. The last touches were hot-gluing the flowers and glittering her name.

A very useful signage to use for photo ops during the event or just to place at the entrance of the event for guests to see and take photos of as well :)

Bridal Shower Food Signs


Continuing on with the bridal shower journey of creatives, I worked on some food signs today. With the list of food and drinks items each bridesmaid is in charge of, I used them to create tags that will be placed next to its dish or drink the day of.

Materials:
- scissors
- cardstock paper
- printer paper
- flowers
- hot glue gun
- double-sided tape

With those materials, I started off with a 4x2.5 in size to design on Illustrator. I created a navy border with the name of the dish or drink within it. I printed them out on 2 sheets total and cut them out. Afterwards, I used double-sided tape to place each name onto a pink cardstock paper slightly larger than the 4x2.5in card, then took that to place on a white card that was folded in half so it could stand. My final touches were using the glue gun to put on small flowers I got from Michael's. I coordinated each type of dish with certain flowers - for example, the main courses had all three colored flowers (yellow, pink, and blue - wedding colors).


Wedding Reply Cards

Prior working on these bridal shower creatives, I created many designs for my cousin to select from for her wedding reply cards.

I gave her a few choices of the front before working on the back of the card so we know which direction to work towards. I gave her a a variety of fonts, color layouts, design layouts, etc with her wedding color palette:





From this, my cousin selected one direction to go towards - which allowed me to create a complimentary backside of the reply cards.


With these two directions, we finalized with:



Turned out pretty nice when printed, dontcha think? :)
