Festive Diwali Banner Design

I need a vibrant, high-impact banner to celebrate Diwali on social media. The piece will run as both Facebook and Instagram ads, so it must feel instantly festive while fitting each platform’s recommended feed dimensions.

The visual direction is clear: rich gold, deep maroon, royal blue, and bright orange to echo the warmth of diyas and fireworks. Please weave in glowing diyas arranged in decorative patterns, subtle rangoli flourishes along the edges, and bursts of fireworks in the background. A minimalist Lakshmi and Ganesh icon can be worked in for a cultural accent, but only if it doesn’t overcrowd the layout.

Typography should be either an elegant serif or modern calligraphy style with tasteful golden highlights. The headline reads: “Celebrate the Festival of Lights — Happy Diwali!” The overall look must stay clean, festive, and high-contrast so the design stands out on mobile screens yet still prints crisply for any offline reuse.

Deliverables:
• Two final banners sized for Facebook and Instagram feeds in high-resolution PNG/JPG
• The master, fully editable source file (AI or layered PSD) with all fonts and vectors intact
• A brief note on the color codes and any free fonts or stock elements used

New designers are welcome—just show me a portfolio sample that proves you can handle vibrant color palettes and culturally themed artwork. I’m ready to choose quickly and provide prompt feedback so we can wrap this up well before the festivities begin.
