Marketing Folders

We completed the design for A4 marketing folders for Three Streams in Franschhoek this week.
Promotional or marketing folders can be used in a variety of options at a company. For marketing info to potential clients or to present quotes and/or invoices etc. It is a very professional element to any companies stationery. The inside was left blank with a flap attached that has slits and can hold a business card.
There are smaller A5 folders also available (without separate flap or business card slits) that can easily be designed for restaurants to put the bill in.
If you need a quote on folders like these send an email and the quantity you require to merciamdesigns@gmail.com

Christa & Thys

Vintage themed weddings seems to never go out of fashion which makes our hearts jump with joy! There are endless possibilities, but nothing says vintage wedding quite like a piece of ivory coloured lace! The theme for Christa & Thys' big day is vintage with touches of pastel pink and olive green. The invitations was finished off with a soft ivory ribbon tied in a knot and also a self-adhesive magnet on the back, so guests can put it up on the fridge.

Save the Date Catalogue

Sending out Save the Dates before your wedding has become a bog trend. Whether you send it in an email or as a printed card, it sets the mood for your wedding day. It is very important to make all your stationery flow and fit together, so make sure you have your colour scheme and/or wedding theme planned by the time you send these out.

When sending out printed cards C6 size (postcard) are the most popular and with a magnet on the back your guests can put it on their fridge and they will be sure to remember your wedding day!

Renée & Riaan Save the Date

Renée and Riaan got married last weekend in the beautiful little town of Parys in the Free State.
The colour scheme for the wedding was shades of grey and yellow with a quirky peacock theme. Not the peacock colours but rather to "pronk" and shake off your feathers!
The design process started off with an email save the date design.
We will share more on this stunning wedding in the next few weeks. There are loads more to follow like a printed save the date, invitations and gorgeous stationery. Have a look on our Facebook Page for a photo from the table seating chart we designed, snapped at the wedding on Saturday.

Joulene & Jaco's Wedding Invitations

With a vintage theme and a colour scheme with earthy tones and accents of green, these were the perfect invitations for Joulene and Jaco's upcoming wedding. They are getting married at the beautiful L'Aquila just outside Pretoria later this year. The invitation was finished with a printed paper band and a beautiful soft cream lace collar. The envelopes were finished off with a wrap around label design with each guests name on. For more information or quotes send us an email with your quantities to merciamdesigns@gmail.com

Wine Tasting Sheets Design

This was a very exciting project to work on for La Petite Ferme. Situated on the slopes of the Franschhoek pass this beautiful farm has a restaurant, winery and guest suites with the most stunning view over the Franschhoek valley. 

We created tasting sheets that the they want to use in their tasting room featuring all their wines, worldwide distributors as well as a wine aroma wheel. This is a very interactive tool to learn about wines and enhance your ability to describe the complexity of flavor in red and white wines. It provides you with the terms to describe wine aromas. It is very easy to use and understand, and it will enhance your whole wine experience. 

This is also a great keepsake for guests who visits the farm, much different than normal brochures and it has all the information about the farm that you need. 

We decided to print the tasting sheets on a newsprint type paper to add to the old wold, antique feel of the design. The tasting sheets were bound in pads of 50 so it can easily tear off.
