I focus primarily on print design— things like brochures, postcards, posters, books, newsletters, etc. Not sure what you need? Just ask. With 10 years of marketing experience, I can help you talk through some options.
Digital Design
I work in Photoshop to provide digital designs like web banners, website PSD files, social media imagery, etc. It's important for all of your materials— print and web— to align visually, so I offer guidance about incorporating themes across multimedia.
Illustration
I incorporate hand-lettering and custom illustrations into certain projects. I have several digital downloads available in my Etsy shop, and I'm also available for custom projects—just drop me a note if you're interested.
Custom Portraits
Looking for a great wedding, Christmas, or birthday gift? Custom portraits are available through my Etsy shop.
About me
Hello!
I'm Rachel Joy, and I like pretty things.
My Story
It all started in a graphic arts course in high school... I was recruited to the class by a friend who suggested we sign up together: "We can make t-shirts!" was her claim. Eight years and multiple graphic arts courses later, I earned my Bachelor of Fine Arts in visual communication with an emphasis in graphic design from Northern Arizona University (NAU).
I went on to become a Printing Representative, Customer Consultant, Marketing Coordinator, and ultimately the Creative Manager for University Marketing at NAU before forming my own business in 2014.
I'm currently based in Kansas City, Missouri.
I’d love to talk with you about your next design project—feel free to contact me to get started.
Sincerely,
“We ... are very pleased with her ability... She has a broad range of talent in output to spec and in artistic creation.”

Rachel is an absolute joy to work with. She's got a creative mind and awesome attention to detail in her work. Oh and she handles all the business-y stuff like a pro. She's been a lifesaver for us on a number of design projects and I'd recommend her to anyone.
I know for certain each time we work with Rachel, designs will be creative, stylish and unique and her kind and caring communication makes the process enjoyable as well. Plus, her knowledge and expertise ensures the end product always comes out perfectly.
