Wanted Cards Extra – Driving Instructor

Wanted Cards Extra – Driving Instructor

Driving instructors are a special breed of superhero. They willingly sit in a car with brand-new drivers, calmly pointing out blind spots, braking distances, and the occasional wrong turn—all while keeping their cool. That’s patience, bravery, and nerves of titanium.

These professionals deserve cards for all occasions, yet they’re widely overlooked. This is your chance to fill a growing niche with fun, heartfelt, humorous, and workplace-friendly designs.

Whether it’s for a birthday, a thank-you moment, a holiday greeting, or celebrating a season with their occupation in mind, there’s a real demand here. From cute cartoon cars to minimalist road-sign graphics, there’s loads of room to play.

Design Tips for GCU Artists

• Think icons & symbols: Steering wheels, signal indicators, L-plates / “Student Driver,” cones, miniature cars, dashboards, mirrors, simple map graphics, key fobs, speedometers.
• Avoid using trademarked car logos or overly realistic brand-dependent interiors.
• Go visual with metaphors: Roads forming shapes (hearts, smiley faces, stars), traffic signs used creatively, “journey” themes.
• Humor is welcome, especially about patience, bravery, and the white-knuckle experience of teaching learners.
• Inclusive characters: Instructors come in all ages, genders, and backgrounds—keep it flexible.
• Seasonal versions:
  – For Christmas: reindeer in the passenger seat, Santa behind the wheel, festive cones, snow-covered “Student Driver” signs.
  – For Thanksgiving: a turkey learning to drive, fall foliage around the car, a dashboard pumpkin.
  – For Hanukkah: dreidels as cones, glowing menorah dashboard lights (stylized, not literal interior brand depictions).
