CHILDREN’S BOOK ILLUSTRATOR NEEDED — Christian Activity Workbook (Ages 2–4) Hi! I’m a self-publishing author creating a Christian activity workbook series for toddlers called My First Notebook. I’m looking for a talented illustrator to bring my characters and pages to life for Book 1: God Made Me. ───────────────────────────── ABOUT THE PROJECT ───────────────────────────── Book 1 is a 48-page, full-colour activity workbook (8.5” × 11”) published via Amazon KDP. It introduces toddlers to creation, identity, and God’s love through tracing, colouring, matching, and drawing activities. This is Book 1 of a planned 6-book series. If we work well together, I’d love to continue with the same illustrator for all 6 books — a long-term opportunity worth $3,000–$7,000+ total. ───────────────────────────── WHAT I NEED ───────────────────────────── • 4 character design sheets (front view + 3–4 expressions each) • 1 full cover illustration (front + back) • 10–12 interior spot/page illustrations • 1 sticker sheet (20 small icons: crosses, doves, stars, hearts) • Final files: 300 DPI, CMYK, PNG or TIFF, print-ready ───────────────────────────── THE CHARACTERS ───────────────────────────── 1. Grace the Dove — white dove, warm golden glow, series guide, always encouraging 2. Leo Lion — golden lion cub, brave and enthusiastic, toddler-proportioned 3. Lily Lamb — soft white lamb, rosy cheeks, gentle and kind 4. Theo Turtle — sage green turtle, patient and thoughtful, round shell ───────────────────────────── STYLE I’M LOOKING FOR ───────────────────────────── ✓ Flat or semi-flat colour with bold outlines ✓ Warm, friendly, rounded shapes — appropriate for ages 2–4 ✓ Colour palette: golds, sky blues, sage greens, soft blush, parchment tones ✓ Consistent character design across all pages ✓ Clean, simple — activity areas must stay uncluttered so children can draw/trace ✗ No photorealism ✗ No AI-generated art ✗ No manga/anime styles ✗ No dark or heavy shading ───────────────────────────── BUDGET ───────────────────────────── I am looking to spend up to $500 for the full scope above. I know this is on the lean side and I respect your craft — if your rate is higher, please still reach out as there may be room to adjust the scope to fit. Payment: 30% deposit → 40% on character approval → 30% on final delivery. ───────────────────────────── TIMELINE ───────────────────────────── Ideal completion: 4–5 weeks from contract signing. ───────────────────────────── TO APPLY, PLEASE SEND: ───────────────────────────── 1. A link to your portfolio (children’s character work especially) 2. 2–3 examples closest to the style described above 3. Your quote for the full scope (or a reduced scope you can offer at this budget) 4. Your available start date I look forward to finding a creative partner who loves this kind of joyful, faith-filled work. Thank you!

Hi there, I have read and understood your requirement for a full children’s book illustration package for *My First Notebook: God Made Me*, including character design, cover artwork, interior activity illustrations, and a sticker sheet for a faith-based toddler workbook series with a consistent, warm, and print-ready style for Amazon KDP. My approach will be to first develop cohesive character design sheets for Grace the Dove, Leo Lion, Lily Lamb, and Theo Turtle, ensuring they are simple, expressive, and consistent across all pages. Once approved, I will move into the cover illustration and then design the interior pages with clean, uncluttered layouts that support tracing and activity work while keeping focus on engagement and readability for ages 2–4. I will maintain a soft, child-friendly colour palette and ensure all artwork is vector-clean or high-resolution raster (300 DPI, CMYK) suitable for professional print. The sticker sheet will be designed as simple, scalable icons aligned with the same visual style for consistency across the series. Do you already have rough sketches or reference images for the characters, or should I develop them fully from written descriptions? PORTFOLIO: https://www.freelancer.com/u/AneesaIBA?w=f&ngsw-bypass= Let’s create a joyful, cohesive visual world for your series that can scale across all six books. Cheers, Rabia Shaikh

Hi, This project feels very thoughtful and genuinely well planned, especially the focus on keeping the artwork warm, uncluttered, and developmentally appropriate for toddlers. I’d love to help bring the My First Notebook series to life with soft, friendly character designs and clean activity-page illustrations that feel joyful and easy for children ages 2–4 to engage with. I completely understand the style direction you’re aiming for — rounded shapes, gentle colors, bold readable outlines, and expressive but simple characters that stay visually consistent across the workbook. Grace, Leo, Lily, and Theo already have a really charming foundation. I’m comfortable creating: • Character design sheets • Full wraparound cover illustration • Interior activity illustrations • Sticker/icon sheets • Print-ready KDP files (300 DPI CMYK) And no worries — I respect the “no AI” requirement. This would be handled as original illustrated work with consistency and usability in mind. Portfolio: https://www.freelancer.com/u/Humaumair12 I’d also be very open to continuing through the full 6-book series if the first collaboration goes smoothly. One quick question — do you already have rough page layouts/activity placements prepared, or would you like some input on visual composition and spacing as well? Best regards, Huma

Hi , Last week I did a very similar Christian toddler workbook for KDP, so I’m confident I can handle God Made Me really well. I hand‑illustrate (no AI) in Procreate/Illustrator, flat or semi‑flat with bold, rounded lines, warm colours, and clean, uncluttered activity space. I work 300 DPI CMYK with KDP bleed, spine, and barcode safe areas. Character looks stay fully consistent across pages and stickers. I would like to know the below. - Do you want layered source files (AI/PSD) in addition to print‑ready PNG/TIFF, and should interiors be vector or high‑res raster? - For the cover, do you already have the KDP wrap template (trim, bleed, spine) and final title/back copy? I think we should. - Lock a 1‑page style guide (palette, line weights, shadows) to keep all 6 books perfectly consistent. - Build a reusable pose and icon library (cross, dove, stars, hearts) to speed future books and cut rework. Lets follow a plan like this. 1) I collect refs, make a mini styleboard and colour palette, then rough sketch all four characters. 2) I refine and approve character sheets with 3–4 expressions each. 3) I design the full wrap cover on the KDP template with Grace guiding the theme. 4) I illustrate 10–12 interiors plus the sticker sheet, then preflight and deliver print‑ready files
