Want to turn your vehicle into a mobile billboard? In this step-by-step blog post, we’ll show you how to design and create a custom magnetic car sign in just minutes using Adobe Express – no design experience required. Whether you’re advertising a local business, promoting a service or adding a unique personal flair to your ride, this guide will help you produce a sleek, eye-catching car magnet with ease.
We’ll cover everything from choosing the right size and layout to customising your design with logos, colours, fonts and images that reflect your brand or message. Adobe Express offers a fast, intuitive design platform that makes the process simple, even for beginners. If you’re looking for a quick, affordable, and professional-looking way to get noticed on the road, this tutorial is your perfect starting point.
Start by visiting Adobe Express by typing express.adobe.com in your browser. If you’re new to Adobe Express, you can sign up for free using your Adobe, Google or Apple ID. If you already have an Adobe Creative Cloud subscription, you’ll unlock additional premium features automatically.
Begin by specifying the exact size of your magnetic sign. Input the width and height according to your needs, making sure to select your preferred units of measurement—such as millimetres, centimetres or inches. This step will ensure your design fits perfectly in its intended space.
Next, choose the layout orientation that best suits your content. You can opt for a landscape format if your design features horizontal elements or a portrait format for vertical layouts. Selecting the right orientation will help enhance the visual impact and readability of your sign.
You can add your own logo as we have done in the video or choose from a wide range of pre-designed logo designs provided by Adobe Express.
Customising your project is simple and intuitive. You can easily add text, adjust fonts and apply colours to suit your aesthetic. In our example, we selected bold fonts and vibrant colours to ensure the text stands out, making it both eye-catching and easy to read.
Adding images to your design is quick and effortless thanks to Adobes built-in stock photo library. This extensive collection features thousands of high-quality, royalty-free images at no extra cost. Simply use the search bar to find images that match your theme or message, then drag and drop them directly into your design.
Before you proceed with downloading your final design, you’ll have the opportunity to review every detail and make any last-minute edits or corrections. This step is important to ensure your design meets your expectations and aligns perfectly with your vision.
To help with this, you’ll have a realistic preview that shows exactly how your design will look once applied to the vehicle. You’ll be able to see placement, proportions, colours and how the design interacts with the shape and features of your vehicle. This visual check allows you to catch any potential issues early and make adjustments with confidence.
In just a matter of minutes, you can design your own sleek, professional magnetic sign using Adobe Express. Thanks to a wide selection of ready-made templates, a royalty-free image library and intuitive customisation tools, there’s no need for any prior design experience – anyone can create standout signage with ease.
Once your design is complete, you can head over to our magnetic signs product page to print and have them delivered directly to you in just 5-6 working days, ensuring a seamless and efficient process.
