Rimowa: Gifts

The campaign: Over the last few years, Rimowa has been running their series of animated ‘Gifts’ videos. The luxury luggage brand manages to evoke emotions in their viewers, as well as convey the high-end sophistication their bags and suitcases provide. These short clips showcase different cultures and settings, all with one common theme: Rimowa luggage enabling meaningful experiences. The brand has purposefully captured the essence of travel in these seconds-long videos, while still balancing a subtle elegance associated with Rimowa. This moves the brand’s image away from simply being a high-end baggage brand, and instead conveys a greater depth.

How you can recreate it: Create your own drawing-style images featuring your products in action using Picsart’s AI tools. Create these instantly and post them on your social media accounts in the days leading up to Christmas to promote additional sales and experiences. This may work particularly well if you’re a cozy cafe looking to drum up some additional holiday business, or if you’re a beauty brand with products that make great stocking fillers.

Coca-Cola: Santa’s Takeover

The campaign: The famous soda brand took their organic social media marketing one step further over the last few years by creating an X account for the iconic Coca-Cola Santa, separate from their main corporate account. The account was first created in January 2020, but the first post wasn’t published until December that year – some forward thinking from the marketing team! All posts on the account have been written as though they were created by Santa, ranging from polls asking what he should do today to funny one-liners that prompt engagement such as ‘RT if you want to make the Nice List.’ The account was active periodically between December 2020 and July 2023, with the most active month being December each year. Although the account’s following sits at 3,000 currently, numerous posts saw exceptionally high engagement, including one which saw over a whopping 1,400 comments. Brands have been leaning into mascot social media accounts, with another example being Duolingo hosting TikTok accounts for its characters.

How you can recreate it: If you have a character or icon as part of your branding, this is the perfect opportunity to bring it to life. If not, create one! Use Picsart Avatars or AI Logo Maker to create a whole new account for your character. The best part is that you can continue this initiative all year round. Foster an engaged community through storytelling and active posting. Your audience is soon to invest in the life of your character, and subsequently your brand. For last-minute holiday marketing, set up the account and tag it from your main social media. Launch a challenge (like Elf on the Shelf via your stories) or create a series of posts prompting engagement, like asking the audience what the character should wear on Christmas.

L.L. Bean: 12 Days of Puppies

The campaign: From 2016, L.L.Bean ran their 12 Days of Puppies campaign annually for a number of years via their Instagram account. For this campaign, L.L.Bean fans would submit images of their dogs in a festive setting in the hopes that their pup would be chosen as one of the 12 featured that year, along with a $50 gift card prize. A tailored hashtag of #LLBeanPuppyContest was required to be posted with all entries. The brand knew their target audience of outdoor enthusiasts would be likely to own dogs, making this campaign appealing to their key market. Puppies are also widely loved, which helped to draw attention to L.L.Bean at a pivotal selling time of the year.

How you can recreate it: Think of something unifying that people love – chocolate, novelty sweaters, animals, or anything else that would be specific to your target audience. Create a campaign in which people can send in their own submissions. This will help to activate and engage your audience and help to foster a sense of community. Use Picsart.

These three Christmas social media campaigns show how brands can connect with their audiences in a number of creative ways during the holiday season. Through storytelling, community-driven initiatives, and campaign-specific social media accounts which make the audience feel as though they are part of an inside joke, these various approaches offer opportunities to increase engagement, prompt seasonal sales, and provoke emotional reactions. Embrace what makes your brand special and recreate these campaigns with your own twists.

The post 3 Social Media Marketing Campaigns to Recreate this Christmas appeared first on Picsart Blog.

1. Stickers: for the creative in your life

Stickers may sound obvious, but these are a surefire fan favorite for creatives. Head over to Picsart to create a custom pack, or take it to the next level by creating your own. Use the AI Sticker Maker to craft stickers that reflect the recipient’s personality and passions. All you have to do is finalize your packs in Picsart and print them with sticker paper.

2. Calendar: to help keep your solopreneur friend organized

Moving into the new year, people have new focuses, fresh visions, and updated goals. There’s nothing worse as a small business owner than losing track of meetings and key dates. This is what makes a calendar so ideal for the people in your life who are doing everything themselves.

3. Gift wrap: the gift that keeps on giving

What does everyone need but no one ever gifts? Wrapping paper! Create personalized gift wrap using Picsart’s tools. You can add festive patterns, photos, or even AI-generated designs that reflect the recipient’s interests. It’s a fun way to make your gifts extra special while giving them something practical they’ll love to use.

4. Labels: for a thoughtful finishing touch

Take your gift presentation up a notch with custom labels! Picsart makes it easy to design beautiful labels that complement your gift wrap or packaging. You can personalize them with festive themes, fun quotes, or even inside jokes. It’s a small detail that adds a lot of heart to your gifts.

5. T-shirt: to make sure the recipient stands out from the crowd

Giving someone special something unique to them can be one of the most heartwarming gifts. A t-shirt that represents the receiver shows how well you know them. If they love their cat, include it, if they’re starting a small business, write something like ‘Don’t disturb me, I’m working’ in a playful font. If you want to take things one step further, why not generate an AI image that includes everything they love?

6. Magnets: to add some pizzazz to the mundane

Looking for ways to brighten up someone’s day every day? Magnets could be your answer. If your friend works from home or has an office refrigerator, create some magnets that’ll spark joy when they see them. If they’re an entrepreneur, try something funny like “Get back to work,” or maybe an inspirational quote is more their vibe. If they’re a Gen Z content creator, go for something that’ll look great in the background of their content.

7. Coupon book: for those who love acts of service

We all have that one person in our lives who is so busy they never stop. Whether they are chaotic or exceptionally organized, everyone with a busy schedule needs more time. Take some of the burden off their hands by giving a personalized voucher book. This could include anything from offering to help out with chores and errands, like a voucher for laundry they can redeem from you, or for those who are building an empire, a voucher for being a photographer for the afternoon could be more fitting. Your voucher book can be serious or used as a novelty. Either way – consider what would be useful for the recipient, or what would make them laugh.

8. Cards: for those who value words of affirmation

Cards are often thought of as more meaningful than presents. If you really want to tell someone how much they mean to you, or even just hype them up for the new year, create a card they’ll want to keep. Add photos of the two of you, stickers that refer to meaningful moments, and a font that fits your friend’s vibe to quote inside jokes. If your friend’s killing it, make sure to tell them.

9. Posters: to pump life into any space

If you know someone who has a space that needs some serious brightening up, have a go at designing a poster that you know they’ll love. If they own a business, you could even create posters with their logo that they can post around their local area. If you just want something that they’ll like to hang in their home, incorporate their interests, or perhaps a place you visited together.

10. Spotify playlist: a gift that hits all the right notes

Music is deeply personal, and a curated Spotify playlist can be a gift they’ll treasure. Take it up a notch by creating a custom Picsart cover for the playlist. Include visuals that reflect the theme of the music or special moments you share with the recipient. It’s a thoughtful way to make your gift truly unforgettable.

11. Coloring book: for the person who needs some downtime

Think of all of your friend’s favorite things and create their very own coloring book. This is the perfect present for anyone in your life who needs an activity or hobby to decompress. You may want to include their favorite food, their pet, elements from movies they enjoy, or the cafe they frequent.

12. Bookmark: a small but meaningful gesture

For the bookworm in your life, a custom bookmark is both practical and personal. Use Picsart to design one with their favorite colors, quotes, or imagery that resonates with their personality. It’s a thoughtful addition they’ll appreciate every time they open their favorite book.

13. (BONUS) Door sign: for the content creator who hates to be disturbed

Influencers and content creators all hate one thing, and that’s being disturbed while filming. When you’ve got the lighting right, a set-up ready, and the camera rolling, being interrupted can be frustrating. Help your friend to thrive by producing their very own door sign, designed to reduce retakes and ensure their content stays top-notch.

And there you have it, 12 (well, 13) thoughtful, creative, and easy-to-make gift ideas that are sure to spark joy this holiday season. No matter whether you’re crafting something meaningful for a solopreneur, a creative, or just someone who deserves a little extra cheer, Picsart has all the tools you need to make your gifts stand out. So, grab a cup of something warm, fire up Picsart, and let the holiday magic begin!

Once you’re done creating a Beautiful cover, featuring your own interpretation of the art for The Right Person Will Stay, why not have a go at recreating some more of the Sparkle Jump Rope Queen’s album covers? The media has speculated that the Blue Banisters album cover was also created using Picsart, as well as the cover for the single Let Me Love You Like a Woman. Be influenced by these, or produce your own. If you’ve managed to secure Lana Del Rey 2025 Tour tickets, you might even want to try creating your own tour poster to hang over the next few months while you’re waiting to see the Queen of Sadness herself (a title bestowed in the hit series Ginny & Georgia).

Fast forward to today and Gen Z is bringing it back (again). Softer shades of the color are known as Millennial pink, but lately, it’s all about the joyful highlighter hues of the early ’00s.

What does hot pink stand for?

Color can affect our moods and behaviors. Traditionally, people immediately associate pink with femininity, girlhood, and softness. Pink often also brings to mind romance and Valentine’s Day. Some love it, some hate it. But it always demands attention. Because it’s often associated with femininity, companies that cater to women often use the hot pink color in their branding and logos. 

According to architect Annmarie Adams, pink didn’t always have a feminine connotation. Pink only became the default feminine color after World War II. Before then, it was common for girls to wear blue, while mothers would dress their baby boys in pink. According to Adams, a cultural shift came after Nazi Germany forced gay men to wear pink triangles on their sleeves. The LGBT community has since reclaimed the pink triangle as a symbol of pride.

As to hot pink’s role in fashion and art, its history doesn’t disappoint. The color was introduced in the 1950s as a symbol of post-war optimism, it soon became associated with youth culture and empowerment, thanks to designers like Elsa Schiaparelli. The ’60s and ’70s amplified its presence amidst counterculture and disco, representing experimental and avant-garde fashion. ‘80s neon trend further solidified hot pink as a statement of rebellion and glamour, a favorite in punk and underground scenes.

Then came many many iconic cultural moments that involved the eye-catching color. In the ‘50s and ‘60s the Pop Art movement leveraged hot pink to blend high art with popular culture, challenging norms and perceptions. In cinema, it has defined iconic visual narratives in films like “Legally Blonde” and most recently “Barbie” which started a pink fashion trend that took over the world. 

It’s no surprise artists, filmmakers, and pop stars all have an obsession with the color and its eye-catching nature. So keep on reading to see how you too can also effectively implement this color in your creative process. 

How to match colors with hot pink

Looking for some hot pink color combinations? Here are a few pro ideas that you can try:

Similar colors

Hot pink with a range of related pinks creates a romantic edge. Pairing similar colors with hot pink can be helpful when designing Valentine’s Day greeting cards. Using color theory can help to improve your design. If you want to take things up a level, try using analogous or triadic colors.

Analogous colors

Analogous colors are three colors next to each other on the color wheel. To find an analogous color, take a close look at the color wheel. Then, pick the three colors to the left or right from it. Those four colors are analogous. The colors analogous to hot pink (color picker code: #ff69b4) are bright orange (#ff6969) and bright purple (#ff69ff).

Triadic colors

Triadic colors are easily identified using the color wheel. A triadic color scheme uses three colors evenly spaced around the color wheel. For example, the three primary colors form a triadic color scheme: red, yellow, and blue. Hot pink’s triadic colors are bright green (#b4ff69) and bright blue (#69b4ff). These three combine to make a fun, summery vibe.

Tetradic colors

Tetradic color schemes are also known as rectangular schemes. Imagine drawing a rectangle on the wheel. The four corners represent your color palette. For example, pink, red-orange, blue-green, and indigo.

Colors that go with hot pink

Hot pink stands alone as a striking and impactful color. However, when hot pink is combined with other color schemes, it really comes to life. 

Hot pink and blue

Even though pink and blue don’t exactly complement each other, (although if you add yellow, they form a triad), culturally, they’re paired as opposites. Because it’s modern tradition to think that pink is for girls and blue is for boys, putting them side-by-side inspires a kind of color harmony. 

Neon green and hot pink

One thing that’s wonderful about this complementary color combo is how often it occurs in nature (and um, swimming pools). Every spring, you’re sure to see pink blossoms blooming out of green leaves and stems. Pink and green go together like black and white. 

Black and hot pink

This vintage color combination throws it back to the era of poodle skirts and Parisian shopping bags. This high-contrast color combination, from bright to dark, can be a lot of fun to play around with. 

Get creative using the hot pink color

Feeling daring and want to incorporate hot pink into your graphic design? Here are some ideas on how to effectively incorporate the hot pink color into your work.

Pop Art

Pop art is more than an art movement. For the genre’s fans, it’s a lifestyle. Pop art emerged in the 1950s and 1960s when plastics and consumer goods were taking over the world. The term “pop” refers to what’s popular and fashionable, young, bold, and fun. Pop artists used everyday consumer objects to reflect the changing desires of culture. To catch the eye, pop artists frequently use bright and vibrant shades and colors.

Experimenting with Vaporwave

Vaporwave is kind of like the pop art of the 21st century. It’s a musical genre and visual art style that emerged from Internet culture in the late 2000s. The style gained a lot of popularity for its aesthetic and pleasing visuals that are derived from the 1980s and 1990s subcultures. As an aesthetic movement, vaporwave has been described as a tongue-in-cheek commentary on modern consumerism and technology. 

Valentine’s Day

Want to impress that special someone? On Valentine’s Day, you don’t need a reason to share love. A Valentine’s Day card is a great way to put all you’ve learned about hot pink into practice. Simply combine your favorite Valentine’s Day images with a quote or words about the recipient.

Create hot pink color edits using Picsart

Now it’s time to put that hot pink color knowledge to work. Ready? These easy tutorials will show you just how easy it is to get started.

On the web

1. Open Picsart’s Web Editor and use the New Project button to start creating.
2. Select a canvas size to adjust the edit resolution based on the content type or social media platform.
3. And then fill that canvas with the hot pink color by inputting the hex code #FF69B4.
4. Use the Stickers button on the left sidebar to search for hot-pink-themed stickers, images, shapes, and more. Add effects and filters if required by using the fx button on the top toolbar. This part is entirely your call. Go wild with your hot pink color inspiration to create fully customized edits.And when you’re done editing use the Export button to download your work.
5. And when you’re done editing use the Export button to download your work.

On mobile

1. Open the Picsart app, tap on the + at the bottom of the screen, and select a blank canvas.
2.  Find Drawings on the toolbar at the bottom of your screen. Don’t worry, you won’t have to draw anything.
3. Tap on the Color tool and use the Adjust button on the top left of the pop-up menu.
4. Select RGB and adjust the sliders so the numbers are R: 255, G: 105, and B: 180. Confirm then select Fill and tap on the canvas to add the hot pink color as your background. Use the Apply button to save.
5. Now use various Picsart tools to search for hot-pink-themed stickers, images, shapes, and more.
6. Use the download button on top to save your new, pinktastic edit.

1. How to Create Your Product Design

Designing your product involves more than just visual aesthetics; it’s about conveying the essence of your brand. For our project, we chose Brazilian arabica beans, inspired by our partner Cafe Cultura’s roots. The vibrant Brazilian culture influenced our color palette, which includes lively greens, yellows, and a dash of orange.

Using Picsart Web, we started by selecting a suitable background image to incorporate the orange elements and set the stage for our text. To ensure readability, we placed text over a less busy part of the image, focusing on making every design element intentional and reflective of the brand vibe. The font choice, text alignment, and color were all selected to mirror the fun and vibrant nature of our brand.

2. How to Transition Your Design to Marketing Assets

Once the product design is in place, the next step is to create compelling marketing assets. Here, simplicity and consistency are key. We continued using Picsart to maintain the brand’s visual style across all assets.

For social media, start with essential elements like a profile picture and a compelling bio. Use the design elements from your product packaging to maintain consistency. For example, the logo and color scheme should be consistent across your packaging and your social media presence to strengthen brand recognition.

3. Don’t just Post — Engage! 

In one of our recent YouTube videos, we taught you how to create the perfect Instagram feed for your small business. But social media is not just about posting; it’s about engaging. For our brand, we used the initial posts to introduce the product with visuals directly from our packaging design. This not only leveraged our design work but also ensured that the product was immediately recognizable to our followers.

Creating reels or videos can further engage and entertain your audience. We demonstrated how to use existing assets to create dynamic content that reinforces thebrand’s narrative and aesthetic. Remember, every post is an opportunity to reinforce your brand’s story and values.

Launching a brand from scratch might seem daunting, but with the right tools and a consistent theme, it can be a smooth and successful journey. From designing your product with a clear brand identity to creating a cohesive social media strategy, every step is an opportunity to solidify your brand in the minds of your consumers.

So, whether you’re crafting your first product or looking to refresh your brand, remember that consistency is your best friend in building a cohesive and memorable brand identity. And as always, tools like Picsart are here to help streamline the process, from initial design to final post.

Happy branding!

If you are promoting a sale, think about the demographics of your customers and their aesthetic preferences. Consider what the message is that you want to convey. Is this a fun announcement? Or maybe a more informative one? Whatever it may be, make sure it’s represented on the flyer.

Choosing the Right Template

If designing something from scratch doesn’t sound like your thing, we’ve got you covered! We offer a wide range of templates that can be edited to meet your specific needs. All you have to do is visit Picsart and select the Templates section to browse through our many options. If you select ‘Flyer’ or ‘Poster’ in the size selection, then these specific size designs will be shown. There are lots of various styles that can be great for countless announcements. Whether you’re promoting a live show or celebrating a restaurant opening, there will be the perfect option for you.

The Power of Typography

Font choice is always important, and we make sure that you have plenty of choices in our Text section. Both the successful mood and readability of your creation can depend on the correct typography. If you simply browse through and search for keywords that reflect your aesthetic (floral, pretty, gothic), then you’ll be well on your way to finding the best ones possible. We also offer some AI Text Styles that may be perfect for your posters too! If you search our AI Tools section, you can find some interesting fonts that can make your announcement shine.

Leveraging AI Image Generators for Unique Visuals

Want some attention-grabbing imagery that will draw people in? Our AI Image Generator is the perfect way to create fun and vibrant images that are unique to your work! You simply describe what you want, choose an art style and you’re good to go! The more detailed you are, the better your outcome will be. You can also generate many outcomes from the same prompt. You can re-make your images until you feel you have the highest quality option! Forget about time-consuming design; let AI do it for you!

Decorating with Stickers and AI-Generated Stickers

Another simple but effective way to spruce up your poster or flyer is to include some of our Stickers! These small but impactful images are the perfect way to add some personality to any design work. If you simply go to our Stickers section, you can select various options from there. It’s important that you only use the ones that are publishable; they all have the word plus in the corner of them and are easy to find. If you want to create something more custom, try out our AI Sticker Generator. If you simply describe what you want and choose an art style, you can then use your very own personalized sticker! 

Adding Effects (FX) for Impact

Now for some extra pizzazz, our FX section provides some exciting aesthetic enhancements that can really add some depth to your design. Whether you want to add a fun filter to your poster or include some exciting color effects, this is the place to really have fun with experimentation. Now it’s important at this stage to not add too many effects to your already-created design. Because the last thing you want is for your exciting sale announcement to be overshadowed by ten messy sparkle effects overlaid on each other. 

When it comes to promotion, posters and flyers will always be a staple way to spread the word about any announcement. With the help of Picsart, you can create the design of your dreams in a matter of clicks. What can I say! We designing.

 Automate Routine Tasks

Now, one way that you can manage your time better is to make certain tasks automated. Specifically, the ones that are fairly routine – things like invoicing, posting on social media, sending emails out, etc. By setting these activities up to go out ahead of time, you are allowing yourself more opportunity to focus on your other tasks at hand. Social media sites like X (rip Twitter) allow you to schedule posts for wherever you’d like, and most email sites let you do the same. On Gmail or Outlook, you can even set up automatic responses to emails! Therefore saving you plenty of time for other jobs. 

Complete Similar Tasks Together

Got tasks to do that are somewhat similar to each other? Try to group them and work on the objectives together. By dedicating a set amount of time to completing similar things, you can maximize your efficiency and increase your focus. Your overall productivity will skyrocket as you will be getting things done as a collective task. Things like content creation are great to complete as a “batching” activity. When you feel like you can get a lot done, use that time to do so! 

Set Strict Boundaries for Work and Rest

Setting work and rest boundaries is vital for maximizing your time use. Having a strong work-life balance allows you to avoid the dreaded feeling of “burning out.” It’s always important to focus on your mental health, especially when you are running the show on your own. This is where the planning and scheduling really come into play. By organizing your day-to-day work and leaving time for yourself too, you can perfect the art of having a healthy relationship between your work and personal life. 

Use Time Blocking to Organize Your Day

Ever heard of time blocking? To put it simply, it’s the process of allocating specific hours to different tasks. This is a great way to focus on specific tasks without going off track and spreading your focus on too many things. If you find that you are easily distracted or that you have a tendency to jump back and forth between tasks, then this can be super helpful. Prioritizing your work has never been easier!

Outsource Non-Core Activities

Now this final step involves you somewhat leaving the solopreneur bubble. While you may want to always be in charge of your core tasks, you may benefit from outsourcing some help to others. If you can delegate non-core tasks to others (whether they are employed by you or not), then you can focus on your important jobs! Whether it’s hiring someone to do your accounting or getting help with design work, outsourcing some of these tasks can be super beneficial for balancing your time. It’s also important to make sure you reach out to reliable sources! The last thing you want is to be handing over your financial information to a dodgy site. Make sure you check out a company’s reliability through reviews and online checks.

With these 5 key tips on time management, we hope that you can maximize your productivity without feeling totally burned out. Being a solo business owner is hard, but it can be easier with the help of your good friend Picsart .

Best Practices for Branding with AI-Generated GIFs

Here are some things to consider when using GIFs in your branding:

Keeping It Relevant: Ensure that they always align with your brand’s aesthetic. If you make ones that are too different from your other content, it could cause a rift.

Quality Over Quantity: While using GIFs can be super fun, it’s important to remember that it’s better to have less high-quality ones as opposed to too many that aren’t all up to scratch. Impactful creations always add more value than lesser thought-out ones!

Consistency Is Key: Make sure that you are including GIF’s that mix well into your existing branding but are still different from each other. Too much of the same exact vibe can lessen the impact of the GIFs being there in the first place.

Now that you know more about the world of creating GIFS, why not have a try at making your own? Their existence in branding can add a unique flair that can really help you stand out. Forget about using plain old pictures; you can now have exciting GIFs with the power of Picsart!
