  4. Banners
  5. Posters

2017 Christmas designs

Originally, I’d been considering designing the logo on a Christmas ball (as I’d also considered last year), but after browsing the Internet for a while, I stumbled across the second image below and really loved the gradient it used. So I employed it in this design as well, and it worked perfectly with the white background.

The font I chose here is also quite cool: RowoTypeface

2016 Christmas: This is the Sign for You

Originally, I was planning to design the logo in a decorative circular format and place it on a red Christmas tree ball like the ones pictured below. But eventually, I decided to use the logo on a few stock photos of babies as the final designs show.

AICF Easter Banners 2015

He’s a much better artist than I. Widescreen …

AICF 2014 Brochure

In early 2014, the AICF church pastors asked me to update our church information pamphlet as a tri-fold brochure that could be printed on an A4 paper.

I created two designs and we printed the second: …

AICF Evangelism Cards

In late 2011, as a push toward 2012 when I really started getting more involved with the majority of the design work at AICF, the lead pastor asked me to create some evangelism (contact) cards with the following specifications:

  1. Black and white – a church deacon was able to get very cheap printing in black and white
  2. The church logo
  3. Member contact info
  4. A map to church, the address, and time of worship service
  5. Matthew 11:28

I came up with a handful of designs and we settled on the one with a black header (shown above).
