After working as a registered nurse, Rebecca Lefebvre, the CEO and Founder of Avec La Vie, decided it was time to design something meaningful and inspirational.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She wanted to offer a simple way for individuals to find their truth, nourish their hearts, and love themselves. Over the years, many of her patients confessed that they found nature to be soothing. As a way to deinstitutionalize healing, and a neutral platform to share the lessons Rebecca had learned, she decided to create a deck of inspirational cards using animals as metaphors to explore the many complicated facets of one&#8217;s humanness.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image cnvs-block-core-image-1584998937529\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pakfactory-blog-media.s3.ca-central-1.amazonaws.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/uncategorized\/2023_05_Avec-La-Vie-pkg-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Custom packaging for illumination cards.\" class=\"wp-image-11545\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">photo: pakfactory<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading cnvs-block-core-heading-1584998937533\"><strong>The Challenge<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After approximately four years of previous sales, Rebecca decided to invest in redesigning her&nbsp;<em>Fauna Inspiration&nbsp;<\/em>deck. She began the process of developing a custom box that would be convenient to display, travel, and store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Based on customer feedback, prior packaging did not add value to the overall experience and was limiting broader expansion into the retail and wholesale markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-center is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Working with PakFactory was simple, seamless, and professional.<\/p>\n<cite>rebecca lefebvre, ceo and founder<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading cnvs-block-core-heading-1584998937556\"><strong>The Solution<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With the combined efforts and Rebecca&#8217;s prior experience as an Art Director for a creative agency, it was not difficult to find a solution. Rebecca knew that the structure of the boxes needed to be sturdy, and the design should not take away from the overall experience of the cards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The resulting design was a&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/pakfactory.com\/custom-rigid-setup-boxes.html\">two-piece rigid type box<\/a>&nbsp;that relied on the precise fit of the lid and base to work; the cards would slide perfectly into the box. The box also featured beautiful artwork done by Rebecca, reflecting the same aesthetic and style drawn on each of her cards.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pakfactory-blog-media.s3.ca-central-1.amazonaws.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/uncategorized\/2023_05_Avec-La-Vie-pkg-2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Unboxed view of custom packaging for illumination cards.\" class=\"wp-image-11546\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">photo: pakfactory<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-center is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>During the process, receiving the prototype made all the difference.
