| Are you having trouble thinking of an ORIGINAL concept for your custom envelopes. Well, do not worry, because you are not alone. Creating your own design for envelopes is hard, since there is little space to work with, while there are also limitations set in their configuration due to postal service restrictions. The real trick into creating more original looking invitations is with how you actually alter the main design and layout though. Let me give you a brief overview as to how this is done. Just follow the five easy tips below and you will see that it is not too hard to create great and original looking envelopes.1. Throwing the design template out the window – First off, you might want to adopt the concept of actually throwing the design template out of the window so to speak. While you can keep the standard size and shape in the template, the scope and limitations of the images, logos and text should be very fluid for you. You should not be limited to what the guidelines of the template says when it comes to the main design. This attitude alone should already ensure that you will be able to develop something very original with your custom envelopes.2. Applying more distinct color themes – Now, one of the basic things you can do to create more original color envelopes is to use more distinct color themes. White is a big NO for custom envelopes as the main color. While it is the color of the paper technically, it is also the most common color for most bills and many other commercial mails. Since you want to be unique, this means you will need to avoid that and use more exotic or distinct colors. Remember to make a real effort in adding those distinct color themes or you envelope will just look like most of the envelopes out there.3. Adding more innovative graphics – You can also project a more original looking envelope design by adding more innovative graphics. Instead of just the logo on the side or maybe a watermark all around your envelopes, you might actually want to make things a step further and span the whole envelope instead. That is right, you can actually use a whole full color image around your envelope to make the whole thing look interesting. For example, the envelope can have its whole background texture inserted with a wood type element. This adds the illusion that the envelope is made of wood. Add some inner type shadow effects or reverse embossed effects on the text of your envelopes and you will have an entertaining type envelope that people will definitely remember. Use your creativity here really, and you will easily get more memorable and personal type graphics for color envelopes.4. Using more specialized fonts – Fonts can also be a factor in creating a more customized and of course more original looking envelope. This is because the fonts of the sender and the receiver are the main things that people will notice with the initial content of those envelopes. This is where you can impress people and make a mark, so you should not just use normal fonts, Try to use fresh new ones that should easily be visible and noticeable for most. With this, you will have a more original essence easily with your envelope content.5. Placing subtle distinct elements – Finally, you should add some kind of subtle but distinct element into the printing of your envelope. Adding specific glittered areas, or metallic inks into those envelopes should add that little magic and impressiveness that makes for a good, memorable and of course original type envelope. Just make sure you choose things very tastefully and you should have no problems here.So do not be afraid. Make sure that your own envelopes are like this for the mass market.Visit this site for more information on envelopes and custom envelopes: http://www.printplace.com/printing/envelope-printing.aspx ; http://www.printplace.com/mkt/custom-envelope-printing.aspx |
