Recently I was commissioned by a client to create custom stationary she wished to use to announce the arrival of her newborn. It was such an honor to be involved with the project and I had so much fun in the process that I decided to expand on the line. The cards are already creating quite the buzz among my portrait clients, but the little matching Pano Books (printed through Miller’s Lab) have sent them over the edge. Oh, how I love my clients’ enthusiasm!
Each of the following sets include 6 birth announcement designs with matching mini-books that are set up to print as a 3×3 Pano Book through Miller’s. Or if you’d prefer, simply drag and drop the spreads onto a 10×20 sheet (included), print as a standard photo print, trim according to the guides and adhere in a 3×3 album of your choice. These make great client gifts, grandparent gifts, and will generate a lot of word-of-mouth about your studio.
There are three birth announcement combo’s including the Soft and Subtle Collection, The Whimsical Collection and The Fanciful Collection. Each collection includes the following:
6 design concepts (most designs include both a boy and girl version of the design)
Matching 3×3 pano templates to coordinate with every card design
Easy-to-use photo layers
Easy-to-use color layers
Font list with links
10×20 cutting guide for those who wish to create a 3×3 album with the pano templates
Cards are sized as 5.25 x 7.25 in at 300 dpi
PRICING
1 set = $60
2 sets = $110
3 sets = $150
To order any of the Birth Announcement Combo’s click on the corresponding PayPal buttons below, OR payment can be sent directly to kjschultz98@comcast.net via PayPal. (Be sure to note which set you wish to purchase in the memo.) TEMPLATES WILL BE E-MAILED TO YOU WITHIN 24-hours FROM WHEN PAYMENT IS RECEIVED.
No, that is not a typo! You read the title right…it is April and I’m very excited to announce the launch of the 2009 Holiday Card Collection. Towards the end of the holiday card season last year the requests for the 2009 collection started pouring in. The number one request from my clients was that I launch the new collection sooner so people could promote holiday cards during peek months.
Keeping with tradition, I’ve created a variety of Photoshop templates to fit with my design motto, ”A little bit of everything, something for everyone.” Whether it’s clean and simple, bright and cheery, or traditional…there is truly something for everyone in each of my template sets.
All the designs in all 6 sets come with at least one additional layout option. And as always, the templates are saved as layered .psd files for use with Photoshop or Photoshop Elements complete with color fill layers so background colors and brush colors can be changed with a click of the mouse. The templates also include easy-to-use clipping masks for inserting the photos.
A list of fonts and links to those fonts is included with the template set. (No fonts will be sent with the templates.)
Holiday Cards $65.00/set or:
2 sets for $110.00
3 sets for $150.00
4 sets for $175.00
5 sets for $200.00
6 sets for $225.00
We are working on a new web-site so payment buttons for all sets may not show up in the shopping cart. To bypass the shopping cart you can click on the PayPal buttons at the very bottom of this post OR send payment directly to kjschultz98@comcast.net via PayPal noting which set(s) you wish to purchase in the memo.

8 card designs with an alternate layout option for every card

Hi Melanie- Yes, you can crop the templates to 5.25in x 5.25in at 300 dpi to print as a standard coffee table book. Start the crop from the same place and ending at the same place on each page. For example, start every crop from the lower right hand corner and drag the crop tool up as far as possible ending in the upper left hand corner. It will crop a tiny sliver off the top of the book, but the overall design is not affected.

Hi There!
Just wondering if the album can be done as a non-hinged ?
The senior 411 cards always have a tendency to create such a buzz at the studio. High school seniors love the thought of having their own personal “business cards” ! What a great way to make sure everyone has their contact infomation before they head off to different places after graduation.
The Cosmo Cards collection includes 6- 2×3.5 in double-sided cards. Each card is fully editable so text and colors can easily be changed.
I am very excited to announce the launch of The Urbanesque Book. For three years in a row I have created a book specifically for my high school senior clients and with every passing year there seems to be increased anticipation over the launch of the new book! This 20-page 10×10 coffee table book was created specifically for use with Asuka Books, however simple instructions for prepping the files to print through WHCC are provided with the templates. The book was created using color fill layers so you can easily change colors with the click of your mouse. The templates are also saved in full layers so you can add/remove elements as desired. All text can be edited and a list of fonts with links is included.
These are beautiful. I think the whimsical line is my favorite.
Exquisite Jamie. My wheels are definitely turning about the little books…
You’ve outdone yourself again!!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR TALENT!
