Listed price is the project base price. A 3% payment processing fee is added at checkout. The full total is charged upfront when you place your order.

Design a branded thank-you card for customers, suitable for print or digital use.

A single, professional thank-you card design that combines your brand identity with a message of gratitude. The student will deliver print-ready PDF and web-ready PNG files so you can either send the design to a printer or email it digitally to customers.

Deliverables

  • Thank you card design (PDF + PNG)
  • Print-ready file

What's included

  • 1 card design
  • Front and back
  • Brand colors and logo

Not included

  • Printing
  • Multiple card designs
  • Envelope design

What you'll get

  1. Your logo file (PNG, SVG, or PDF), primary brand colors (hex codes or Pantone), your company name, and the thank-you message text you want on the card. If you have reference cards or competitor examples you like, include those links or files.

  2. The student will sketch layout options, select typography that matches your brand voice, position your logo and colors across the front and back surfaces, integrate your thank-you copy with white space, and produce final files optimized for both offset printing and screen display.

  3. A PDF file formatted to standard postcard or folded card dimensions (5x7 or 4x6 typical) with crop marks and bleed, plus a PNG version at 300 DPI for printing and 72 DPI for email or web sharing.

  4. Your $25 payment stays in escrow until you review the card files and approve the design—only then does the student get paid, so revisions requested before approval won't trigger extra costs.

Common use cases

Wedding planner client gift

A wedding planner sends a hand-signed thank-you to every couple post-event — needs an elegant card with her logo on the front and space for a handwritten note inside.

E-commerce insert card for unboxings

A candle subscription brand wants a thank-you card to drop in every box with a referral code and a request for an Instagram tag.

Real estate closing gift

A realtor wants a branded card to hand new homeowners at closing with her contact info and a QR code for a Google review.

Nonprofit donation acknowledgment

A nonprofit fundraiser needs a branded thank-you card to mail to monthly donors alongside their tax receipt. The student designs a card that reinforces the organization's mission through imagery and color while leaving room for the donor's name and gift amount to be personalized later.

Service business follow-up

An accounting firm wants to send thank-you cards after tax preparation season to thank repeat clients for their business. The card needs to feel professional and formal while subtly promoting next year's services—the student creates a two-sided design with the firm's logo prominent on the front and a soft call-to-action on the back.

Online boutique seasonal thank-you

A fashion reseller ships seasonal thank-you cards with holiday orders to customers who have made repeat purchases. The student designs a card that matches the boutique's Instagram aesthetic and can be printed in batches, with a space for a handwritten note from the seller.

Frequently asked questions

Can the student design multiple card layout options for me to choose from, or is it just one final design?

The scope includes one finished card design. The student will explore options during the design process, but the deliverable is a single approved layout—if you want to pivot the direction entirely after seeing the first proof, that would count as a revision request and may need a follow-up project.

I want the back of the card to be blank so customers can write a message. Does that work?

Yes. A blank back is a valid design choice. The student will still deliver both front and back files—the back will simply be your brand color or white with no text, which is print-ready.

What file formats do I need to provide for my logo, and will the student recreate it if I only have a JPG?

Vector formats (SVG, EPS, PDF) are ideal. If you only have a JPG or PNG, the student will work with it as-is and place it in the design—they won't redraw or vectorize the logo, as that's outside this project scope.

Are the PDF and PNG files both print-ready, or is only the PDF suitable for a commercial printer?

The PDF is print-ready with crop marks and bleed for offset printing. The PNG is export-optimized for email and digital display—if you're printing at home or locally, either can work depending on your printer's specs; check with your print vendor about their file requirements.

Can the student include variable fields like 'Dear [Customer Name]' so I can personalize cards before printing?

The design itself will be static. If you need to personalize names or dates before printing, you'll need to hand those additions to your printer separately, or use your own design tool afterward—that falls outside the scope of this project.
