Design a step-up brochure


A compact brochure of loose cards is easy to customize for different
clients. Here’s how to design one from a template.

The pattern

cards stacked inside and a business card on the pocket. It fits a
standard, #10 envelope. Its popularity is in its versatility; you can mix
and match cards without reprinting the cover. If you need only a few,
you can work from a blank, pre-cut template, as we have here.

Beauty starts with continuity. To design a beautiful brochure, you must visually connect
its many parts. Do this by repeating the image, layout, type and colors throughout.

Lay out each card alike. Work down from the top—head, then photo, then text—
then carry the sizes and dimensions to the other cards.

Layout and alignment are the same on every card.
