In Progress: Party Invites
I’m working on some pretty fun invites for a birthday party and thought I would share my process throughout. So here are some of the thumbnails and sketches I’ve been working on. I’ll write more posts of work that’s in progress. I think it helps explain what a designer does from day to day, ideas don’t just flow from our heads to the computer and then to the printer (at least not ALL of us). Some have a tried and true process, and this is part of mine.
Far from perfect, but all give me a good sense of layout. Some I like to add color, or completely line in ink. But others I like to leave as is, usually due to size or some other reason.




So, if this weren’t already public, would you share these sketches with the client or are these strictly for your own process?
I share these with the client and changes are made throughout the approval and revision process. I like to show them the black & white drawings before moving into the full-color version so we can save time. Does that answer your question?
