I made this to test print colors on the ivory paper that I chose. I ended up using my original color combination but printed it at staples instead of the school printer. I find that the laserjet printer at staples lays the color on top of the paper very crisply whereas the epson at school allows the paper to absorb the ink. My "international" type was getting lost because the color was bleeding into it and the colors looked really washed out in general. I literally printed 30+ test prints before I got my final results.

These are my final business cards that I chose to use. They are not much different than 2 that I had originally designed. I made the giraffe print opaque, realigned my text, and took the giraffe print off of the front that I initially had. I also ended up printing this card on ivory paper to stay consistent with the rest of my designs.

These are my final envelope designs. The colors look a bit differnt because I had to test print a million different times to get the color right on the paper that I chose to use (ivory woven 24lb). I also created this giraffe design for the interior of my envelope.

I tweaked my letterheads and finally decided on this design as my final. I used the horizontal blue line consistently in each of my logo applications (envelope, business card, 4th application. I also rearranged the information at the bottom so that it is symmetrical.

I printed these logos out in size 5"x7" to insert into my glass wall mount. They are interchangeable.

Graft Letterheads

These are the Graft International letterheads that I have created so far. Upon looking at these, I think that I have decided to go with the darker color scheme. I think that the 4th one is the most successful so far.

graft business cards

These are my Graft International business card designs. I haven't decided exactly which one I am going to use yet as my final. I am still deciding on my final color scheme. It will all depend on how they turn out when I print them on ivory colored business paper.
