Crazy Christmas Countdown postcard

Posted on 11. Nov, 2009 by in Design

My team and I came up with an emphasis for the holidays called the Crazy Christmas Countdown. Partially it is to provide a little momentum going into the holidays that we lost from our dip in October. We were rushed with the design, but I’m pretty happy how it turned out. I think that if I had a little more time, I would have worked on the back of the card (socks in the circles) at the bottom. They look good, but it still feels a little awkward to me. What do you think? Any thoughts or suggestions?

    Awesome! I love this! I’m working on our Christmas series tonight. It’s my first Christmas at Momentum as the children’s pastor & I want ours to be really unique and fun, like this. Love the socks!! Sounds like a great time; if I was a kid in Austin, I would want to be there!

    Hi, Kenny! I love it! I do see some of what you mean on the back socks…probably I would change the third set from a “closed position” to something more like a “tada!”. Maybe one foot with the heel on the ground and the toes in the air – Like what your feet would do when you say “TaDa!” with expression. Then you would have some upward eye movement to the web site printed right above it, and a sense of excitement and anticipation on what is coming next, and an exclamation point on the card itself.

    That’s probably more “reading into it than you for”…sorry!

    I really love it!!!
