Simply Print



Happy Holidays, everyone! Over here at Simply Print, we are wrapping up the year and getting ready to spend time with our loved ones. Just a friendly reminder, Simply Print will be closed for the holidays starting on Thursday, December 24th through to Friday, January 1st. The office opens and will resume regular business hours on Monday, January 4th.

We wish you all safe travels and good times, and we will see you next year! Thank you to all that have helped us in any way, whether be spreading the word, referring people to us, or using us for their design and printing needs. 2015 was a great launch year, so expect even greater things from us next year!

Who doesn't love free stuff? We turned the "Fangirl" greeting cards into desktop backgrounds that you can download and use to your heart's content. 
If you are a fan of these designs, be sure to check out our Etsy store to purchase the greeting card versions of these cards.

A couple weeks ago I shared my mood board for interior designer, Brianna Johnson. Well, we are currently in the final stages of finalizing her business cards and I thought it would be a good time to show more of my design process. Above are just a few of the many hand-lettered logos I made (the final logo is not shown here, but will be revealed soon) along with supplementary design elements that were not chosen, and on the bottom right is the finalized color scheme. I like to give clients a range that has been determined by the initial mood board, and from there I will refine what the client has chosen. These business cards are going to be totally bomb and I can't wait to show you the final result!

We're currently working with interior designer, Brianna Johnson on getting herself branded and producing her some rad business cards. She wanted her look to be unique and bold, incorporate turquoise with pops of pink, but maintain a professional presence. We just finished her logotype, so I wanted to share one of the first stages in my design process, a sneak peak if you will. I can't wait to show you the finished business cards, but it is still in the works, so keep your eyes peeled for that.

There are some pretty awesome wine bottle designs out there. I currently have an obsession with them, and can spend hours looking for cool labels. Unless I know that a certain wine is good or not, I'll usually purchase a bottle based on what the label looks like. So when we were slow on Friday afternoon, Tammy suggested I create my own wine label. I went with a wine I called "Fangirl", of course. I hand lettered the label and scanned it into Photoshop, and here we are. It was a quick, small little project, but I thought I'd share with you all!

Last week we launched the Simply Print Etsy Shop to list some of our more standard products for easy purchasing. The Watercolor Series is our first set of predesigned business cards. Once purchased, we will customize the file to reflect the buyer's information, and give them the print ready file. The files can be printed at home, or at any print shop (including us). Check them out, and keep an eye on our shop for more items.

Tammy's mother wanted more business cards printed for her dental practice and Tammy took it as an opportunity to redesign them to match her dental office's color scheme (light blue and dark brown). She went for a clean, bold and functional look for the 2-sided business cards. It's very satisfying to have your business card reflect not only your aesthetics but also how you would like to be perceived by your patients, potential patients and peers.

SCRUBS is a group of philanthropists dedicated to safeguarding the future of health care in the Pasadena area through consistent annual contributions. At the end of this month, they are celebrating their 10th year of operations and Megan was contacted to design the event's invitation set which included a poster, reply card, reply envelope and outer envelope. The client wanted invitations that were attention-grabbing, vibrant and energetic, which would reflect their festivities for that night.




Printing was done by the fabulous Impress Communications out in Chatsworth.

We were originally not going to post an introduction, but we figured that one post up is better than no post up. Obviously we have a slurry of content we plan on posting here, such as finished design projects and promotional deals for you guys, but we want to have this space be a place where you can get to know the girls that are designing and printing for you. So if you somehow found out this blog that we are trying to build up before it's actual launch, or if you scrolled all the way down to the beginning of our time here in the blogosphere, welcome. Welcome to our tiny abode, you may linger a while and take a gander.
