Horizon Media Holiday Card
2016 was anything but ordinary, and as the Horizon Media Social Design Team, we didn’t want to send just a traditional holiday card. Since people often overindulge and over share during this time of year, we decided to focus on the funny “mistakes” people make on social media; whether they are a result of a few too many drinks at the holiday party, having your nose in your phone during festive dinners, or taking one too many selfies. This idea led to the creation of Tweet, Drink & Be Merry: a gift set including a personalized thank you note, a custom wine bottle and five coasters with witty tips on how to #ShareResponsibly.
The following pages provide a closer glimpse into the design and copy.
