Your team has spent months praying, planning, and preparing for Easter services—believing for lives to be transformed and hearts to encounter Jesus in powerful ways.
The only thing standing between someone's life-changing encounter with Jesus and your Easter experience is getting them in the door. That's why your graphics and invites matter so much—they're not just pretty designs, they're the first step in removing barriers for people to experience the hope of Christ!
We pulled a few of our favorite graphics to inspire you. See something you like? Give our Squad a ring, and our designers will create custom graphics for your church.
1) Collage
The Easter story has layers—sacrifice and celebration, grief and glory, death and resurrection. A collage style captures that complexity by weaving multiple design elements into one cohesive narrative.
This approach works perfectly for Easter because it mirrors the multi-faceted nature of what we're celebrating. Just as the Easter story includes many moments and emotions, collage design brings together different textures, images, and elements to tell a richer story.

- Multiple overlapping elements
- Mixed media textures
- Layered compositions
- Scrapbook aesthetic
2) Photo-Driven
Sometimes a picture truly says a thousand words. When words fall short of capturing the magnitude of what Jesus did, a powerful image can communicate what words cannot.
An imagery-driven approach lets stunning photography carry your message, creating an immediate emotional connection that draws people in and makes them feel the significance of your Easter invitation.
Share these keywords with your designer:
- Hero photography
- Photo-forward layouts
- Emotive imagery
- Visual focal points
3) Dark and Moody
Before there was resurrection morning, there was a cross. A dark, moody design approach honors the weight of Christ's sacrifice and creates space for your church to sit in that gravity before celebrating the triumph of Easter.
This style builds anticipation—moving your congregation through the darkness of Friday toward the light of Sunday. It's honest about the cost of redemption while pointing toward hope.
Try these descriptions to get this style:
- Deep, rich color palettes
- High contrast imagery
- Gothic elements
- Moody florals
- Shadow and depth
4) Unexpected
If you're tired of seeing the same Easter designs year after year, this direction is for you. An unexpected approach breaks the mold with surprising color combinations, unconventional layouts, or fresh takes on familiar symbols.
This style works beautifully for churches wanting to reach people who might have lost the excitement of Easter—it signals that your service will share the hope of Easter in new ways.
Use these keywords to help your designer achieve this look:
- Bold color choices
- Playful patterns
- Unconventional compositions
- Modern illustrations
- Playful typography
- Creative symbolism
5) Minimal
Year after year, we see churches gravitating toward minimal design—and it makes sense. In a world of constant noise and distraction, people are craving something that strips away the extras and gets back to what Easter is really about.
Clean, intentional design creates breathing room for your message to land with clarity and impact. Less visual clutter means more focus on the invitation itself.
Try these descriptions to get this style:
- White space
- Clean lines
- Clean typography
- Neutral color palette
- Simple compositions
6) Traditional
Easter is rooted in centuries of church history and sacred tradition. A traditional design approach honors that legacy by incorporating classic elements, liturgical colors, and timeless aesthetics that connect your celebration to the broader story of faith.
This style resonates especially well with churches that value historical connection and want their Easter graphics to reflect the reverence and richness of the season.
Share these keywords with your designer:
- Liturgical elements and colors
- Classic typography
- Cross imagery
- Stained glass elements
- Ornate details
- Historical references
