  • A person wearing a beige hoodie with the logo and text 'Degree by Degree' on the front. Client testimonial for The Burns Creative from Degree By Degree

    I have commissioned The Burns Creative for several projects —from branding / apparel / website design to large format art walls to bespoke gratitude cards. Every project was executed with superior attention to detail. Needless to say, Berlynn was able to take my abstract ideas, and give them direction that gave the project an edge that was able to catch the eye of my clients.

  • A hand holding a spiral notebook with a sticker of a husky dog wearing a bow tie on the cover. Client testimonial for The Burns Creative.

    Something I love about Berlynn with is when I bring an idea from my head and I talk to her, she makes it possible; from custom birthday cards with a photo of my dog to personalized wrapping paper and even stickers. She is very talented, very good at her job, and gives very good customer service.

  • Open brochure about İzmit Church with text, images, and a QR code, laid on a gray surface. Client testimonial for The Burns Creative from Barnaba Ministry

    Working with Berlynn has been great. She listened well to what I was looking for and gave me multiple options. She understood the spirit of what I wanted and made something better than what I imagined. She is responsive and clear. I look forward to working with her again.

  • A phone with a custom case depicting an animated couple hugging, with a background of stylized blue and green swirling trees and a heron. Client testimonial for The Burns Creative

    I loved my experience with Berlynn! We sat together and designed my case and it came out exactly how I imagined it! I always get so many compliments!

  • Illustration of a girl with curly brown hair, blue eyes, and freckles, looking upward with a happy expression, against a sky background with white birds. Client testimonial for The Burns Creative for a graduation card design

    I was putting together my daughter's sweet 16 and was missing that ‘pop’… I contacted The Burns Creative to see if she could help me. The rest was cake. Within a few days I had an invitation that blew my mind. It was a perfect graphic representation down to the curl in her hair and the smile lines by her mouth. Sure, I could have ordered an invitation from a big name company, but they could never have provided the customer service, imagination and talent to create the perfect invitation. I'm now spoiled and will definitely be using Berlynn at The Burns Creative in the future.

  • A sports jersey laid flat on a carpeted surface, featuring the logo of the Sacramento Queens basketball team with a graphic of a girl shooting a basketball. Client testimonial for The Burns Creative

    Berlynn was amazing in helping develop a finished product from very little vision on my part. She came with some great ideas and helped guide to the finished product.

  • Children looking at a plate of sugar cookies on the cover of a children's book titled "My name is Eleni", written by Margie Couch and illustrated by Berlynn Burns. Client testimonial for The Burns Creative

    Working with Berlynn was refreshing and inspiring! This massive project was professionally done from start to finish. Berlynn gives the client attention to detail, understanding of the vision of the project, and really listens to needs or changes. Berlynn is responsive, intuitive and flexible. I highly recommend this multi-talented individual to help you produce your next project. We will be returning to The Burns Creative again and again.
