Budget
Total budget: USD 80 for 2 lid designs
This is the total amount for both designs, not USD 80 per design.
If any additional cost is required, please discuss it before starting the work.
________________________________________
Delivery Time
Preferred schedule:
• Final delivery: within 48 hours
• Ideally: within 24 hours
Please mention whether you can deliver within 24 hours or 48 hours in your proposal.
________________________________________
Target Files
There are 2 attached cup ramen lid designs.
• Design A
• Design B
Please vectorize/rebuild both designs and deliver print-ready Illustrator files for each.
________________________________________
Important: This is not a new design task
This project is not for:
• Creating new designs
• Making alternative concepts
• Changing the layout
• Changing the colors
• Replacing the ramen image
• Changing the logo
• Changing the text
• Creating only preview images
Please reproduce the attached designs as closely as possible.
________________________________________
Scope of Work
1. Vectorize and rebuild the attached 2 designs
Please use the attached designs as the exact visual reference and rebuild them in Illustrator.
Please keep the following as close as possible to the original designs:
• Overall look
• Layout
• Colors
• Text
• Logo placement
• Ramen visual placement
• Ingredient/nutrition space
• Circular lid layout
• General atmosphere
Important elements should be recreated as cleanly as possible, including:
• Product name text
• “TONKOTSU Ramen” text
• Logo
• Decorative elements
• Ingredient/nutrition space
• Trim line
• Background parts
• Ramen image area
Photo or complex image areas do not need to be fully vectorized if that is unrealistic.
They may remain as high-resolution embedded raster images.
However, text, logos, lines, frames, and graphic elements should be recreated in Illustrator as much as possible.

2. Do not simply place the image into Illustrator
The following delivery is not acceptable:
• Just placing the attached JPG/PNG into an AI file
• AI file with only a flat image

• Fonts not outlined
• Images left as external links
• Missing images when the print shop opens the file
• No trim line, bleed, or safe margin
• Low-resolution print data
The file must be prepared properly for printing.

Size Specification
