Add leaf wreaths to your designs: two facing branches of gradient-coloured leaves on transparent backgrounds that cradle a name or logo from both sides.
Start designingWhy does a wreath enclose text only at the sides?
Because the two branches are deliberately open at the top and bottom, so the eye enters the text from above and leaves below without a barrier. That is what makes wreaths right for names and titles, where the text must stay the centre.
What can you design with them?
Names and titles inside a wreath
Logos and visual identities
Certificates, awards and recognition
Invitations and greeting cards
Frames for short quotes
How large should the wreath be around the text?
Let the branches extend a little past the text above and below; letting them touch the letters makes the design feel compressed. That small even gap between leaf and letter is what makes a wreath look like it is holding the name, not choking it.
