Your Journey

Here are the core six steps of the custom commission experience:

1. SHARE YOUR DREAM

Are you celebrating something timely that you want to announce, or invite folks to? Are you wanting to create a personal design or stationery? Perhaps your brand needs some aligned illustrations. Schedule a discovery call to get it touch! I’ll follow up to chat details.

2. REVIEW YOUR PROPOSAL

I’ll put together a vision proposal and send you a link to review using a site called Honeybook. You’ll have a chance review to make sure everything sounds just right. We’ll confirm logistical items like shipping, dates, costs and services that all go into making your dream a reality.

3. BOOK YOUR PROJECT

Once everything in the proposal looks good to you, you can accept the proposal and complete your 50% deposit to book your time slot. All payments are made securely online through your Honeybook customer portal. I’ll then get started on next steps for your commission. 

3. PONDER YOUR PROOF

Next, I’ll work my magic to create and send your digital proof(s) or a picture of a physical mock. Your proposal pricing always includes one round of feedback on design and motif adjustments. I’ll be in touch in the next couple of days with your adjusted proof, all ready for printing, or your final physical work.

4. APPROVE YOUR PRODUCTION

For digital pieces, now that the design is done, I’ll send you a link to complete the final 50% payment. If we changed any housekeeping decisions from the initial proposal (print quantities, etc.) I’ll also update the proposal for you to re-approve. 

5. RECEIVE YOUR JOY

Hooray! I’m so excited to package up your piece! Mailed items are sent via USPS priority flat rate or express, unless you are local to Atlanta and we’ll in person hand off. Digital designs are distributed via a private Dropbox folder.

…Enjoy!

I have so much fun designing everything and getting to know you in the process. I’d love to stay in touch! From just following each other on Insta, to working together again on a future project if you ever need help again.

Don’t hesitate to also provide feedback on your experience working with us. You candid suggestions help drive my ongoing quest to create a wonderful customer experience.

I also love taking on clients that are friends of friends, growing the Paper Phoenix community. If you have a friend that needs help with a project, or is a fellow artists starting out, happy to be referred to help or give guidance.

I hope your bespoke piece brings you joy and makes your world more beautiful.
