This is one of the latest projects I have designed. We (direct marketing agency) were asked to create a greeting card which would be sent out to U-verse members and ask them to sign up for the Showtime premium package. Our client wanted a seasonal (Winter Holiday) themed card. This, along with Showtime’s more adult programming, was the basis for our design and execution.

I agree with that. I also think that everything you create — even if it’s and “exact” copy— is original. Somewhere in that “copy” there lies a difference, hence a brand new creation. Check out the poster below. If anyone knows who created it, please, let me know. Great quote from director Jim Jarmusch.
