Several key design principles have informed the design for this cookout invitation card:

Hierarchy: The large "B-B-Q" typography immediately stands out, clearly indicating the event's main theme. By positioning this term centrally and in bold typeface, the viewer's attention is directly drawn to the purpose of the gathering.

Contrast: Using different font sizes and styles, as well as the distinct red color for "B-B-Q", helps establish a visual hierarchy and keeps the card engaging. The bold title contrasts with the more detailed information, like the address and RSVP details, making it easier to digest.

Alignment and Proximity: Textual elements are neatly aligned, creating a cohesive and organized look. Related details, like date and location, are grouped close together, making the information more easily understood at a glance.

Balance: The title "Levendale Community Cookout" at the top and the contact details at the bottom provide a balanced framing for the main content in the center.

Color: The orange border adds warmth and vibrancy, evoking feelings associated with summer and outdoor gatherings. This color choice complements the theme of a BBQ cookout, suggesting warmth and communal enjoyment.

Repetition: The recurring use of the same font family across the card lends consistency and makes it look professional. The repeated use of the orange hue in the title and border also ties the design together.

Whitespace: The ample space around the "B-B-Q" and between other textual elements ensures the card doesn't look cluttered, and allows each element to breathe and be easily read.
