Greeting Card Design Basics
- Theme; define the purpose of your card. Is it for a birthday, wedding or a holiday greeting? This will guide your design elements.
- Colour; choose a harmonious colour combination that compliments the occasion. Keep in mind that high contrast colour palettes improve legibility.
- Typography; choose fonts that are easy to read and that match the tone of your message. Play with size and style to create visual interest.
- Imagery; use relevant photographs or graphics that enhance the theme / occasion. Make sure they are high-resolution for a professional finish.
- Personalisation; consider creating a custom illustration or doodle to add a personal touch.
