I asked if she might like to incorporate a seal. She stated that there were none in existence. So, I created some.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-accent-color has-css-opacity has-accent-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Elements<br><br>+ Visual identity<br>+ Seals<br>+ Printed materials<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Programs<br><br>+ InDesign<br>+ Illustrator<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-accent-color has-css-opacity has-accent-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n<p>Originally, I provided about 20 different wreaths and lockups, including one with a Latin inscription, but in the end, a fairly simple version of each was chosen.<\/p>\n<p>If you look closely, you can see that the wreaths are slightly different between the two cards. For Sutter, the wreath is of barley grains, but for Yuba it&#8217;s rice. Each seal features its own county outline within.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-287\" src=\"http:\/\/kategorrell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Perspective-Business-Cards-MockUp2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2474\" height=\"1737\" srcset=\"http:\/\/kategorrell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Perspective-Business-Cards-MockUp2.jpg 2474w, http:\/\/kategorrell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Perspective-Business-Cards-MockUp2-300x211.jpg 300w, http:\/\/kategorrell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Perspective-Business-Cards-MockUp2-768x539.jpg 768w, http:\/\/kategorrell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Perspective-Business-Cards-MockUp2-1024x719.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/kategorrell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Perspective-Business-Cards-MockUp2-973x683.jpg 973w, http:\/\/kategorrell.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Perspective-Business-Cards-MockUp2-508x357.jpg 508w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2474px) 100vw, 2474px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The cards were colour-coded specifically, as there are multiple LAFCO branches around California, each with a proprietary colour.
