AF Austin Postcards and Business Cards
The Austin chapter really liked the SF postcards and some of the previous business card designs, so we made multiple versions so we could mix and match fronts and backs using both high-quality Moo prints and less-expensive Vistaprint prints. Here's a PDF preview of the six card designs. We've provided the original Illustrator files in case other chapters want to just change the chapter location and URL to get started on their own. If you don't have an artist you work with, we hired local Austin artist Paul Ahern to make these for us.
- AF Austin Adobe Illustrator files for Moo, 1/2
- AF Austin Adobe Illustrator files for Moo, 2/2
- AF Austin Adobe Illustrator files for Vistaprint
- AF Austin print-ready PDFs for both Moo and Vistaprint (note these say Austin on them, you should edit the .ai files!)
- AF Austin print-ready PDF of a 12x18 poster version of the pink card (again, this says Austin on it)
