Graphic Design Contests

**lenworx** · 12:14 PM

Need to design a postcard for a direct mailing campaign. It needs to be 5.5 x 8.5 (1/2 page). I need it in .jpg with 300 dpi resolution with a 1/8 inch bleed all around. The front and back need to be two separate images for printing. I also need the editable file.

On the back side it will have a picture (link) that is a road with a rainbow. It needs to have the text: "Let us take you to a happy place." and also "Tree Hauling Made Simple".

With sample writing:

Just the picture:

On the front it needs to have the following.
On the left side:
Windmark Logo

We make tree hauling Simple and Affordable.
Rapid Replay and Qoutes.
GPS Tracking on all trucks.
We Specialize in moving trees.
Statewide Service

On the right side:
It needs an address box on the bottom right hand corner that is 4 in. width x 2.5 in. height. You need to put in the top right of the box the Standard Mail Indicia (postage permit).

You can see an image of the indicia here:

On the left hand side of the box put the logo really small and in a 7 font put:
Windmark Logistics
Homestead, Florida

FRONT & BACK

Katesrobyn,

Nice entry! A few things, the most important being an error by me.

The address block should be 4 wide x 2.5 high, I made a mistake and wrote it backwards.

Other thing, change the indicia to the one for Standard Mail instead of First Class.

Move "Windmark Logistics Homestead Florida" to the left top of the address block.

"LET US TAKE YOU TO A HAPPY PLACE!" make it all capitals and remove stars and

"TREE HAULING MADE SIMPLE!" make it all capitals and remove butterfly and

Thanks, I'll give feedback on the business card design also.

Hi, the rainbow road picture you provided is not 8.5 x 5.5, how do want us to include it? Stretch?

Here's the front:

The back will be done when the question is answered. I can change anything the card if you want, even the color scheme.
Also, another thing, is a 37pix bleed alright?

I was wondering if you are still looking for more ideas, if so, I can create a postcard and upload it within the next hour.

Thank you

**girlzdesign** · 07-06-2008, 01:05 AM

Here is my entry based on your instructions. If you prefer, I can change the font to the one you have on your photo.

Thank you

**katesrobyn** · 07-06-2008, 06:13 AM

hi, thank you for the feedback

......... here's the modified one.

**girlzdesign** · 07-06-2008, 11:16 PM

I was just wondering what you thought of my entry.
Thank you

**katesrobyn** · 07-07-2008, 07:10 AM

hi... any feedback on my last entry?

**lenworx** · 07-07-2008, 12:12 PM

Katesrobyn,

Looks good. Did you look at the samples in our website? The address block needs to be the whole entire left side, not within the image. Either way, that's an easy fix. I need to get the phone number and email address to put on the card. Also, is the image of the road good enough to print on a 5.5 x 8.5 postcard?

Thanks

**Ninjax** · 07-07-2008, 01:50 PM

Can I have feedback? I feel a bit left out here...

**girlzdesign** · 07-07-2008, 05:48 PM

Can I get feedback on mine too???

**katesrobyn** · 11:51 PM

hi..thanks, actual size is 5.5 x 8.5 at a 300dpi resolution

this is ur last quote, or u need the whole left to be on all white ... for block address, anyways, the file is in PSD, so it can be easily modified

hello ..
i can help you

**lenworx** · 07-09-2008, 11:55 AM

Erica,

Yours is pretty much the same, it looks good. The indicia (permit number) needs to be in the address block. Also, the address block needs to go out all the way to the edge of the postcard. I'm waiting on my customer to give me some more information that needs to go on the card like phone number and email address.

**lenworx** · 07-09-2008, 11:56 AM

Ninjax,

needs some color.
