The Challenge
Dandelion Kids is a boutique children’s store offering a curated selection of clothing, toys, and gifts. I was brought on to design print materials that would support in-store promotions and help drive customer engagement. The project began with a branded gift card and later expanded when the client requested an additional promotional piece.

Discovery
In early conversations, the client shared their interest in creating promotions that felt consistent with their store experience while also encouraging repeat business. After the launch of the gift card, which was well received by customers, they asked for a follow-up piece that could further support customer retention and sales.

Strategy
The discount cards were designed to clearly communicate the tiered incentive: the more a customer spent, the more they would save on their next purchase.

The layout focused on simplicity and clarity to ensure the promotion was immediately understandable at checkout.
The discount cards were designed to complement each other and reflect the store’s friendly and boutique character. The print materials could be used effectively across daily transactions and seasonal promotions.
Result
The discount cards were well received by both staff and customers. They became a regular part of in-store promotions and were effective in encouraging return visits and increasing average transaction value. Staff found them easy to explain and distribute, and customers appreciated the immediate reward structure. These cards played a key role in building stronger customer relationships and supporting the store’s ongoing loyalty efforts.
