Need to show a sponsor logo to a client? This christmas ball mockup does the job in a few minutes.
Useful for sports brands as much as for sports clubs. One thing worth knowing: change the background colour to your brand palette; it does more for the final image than people expect.
It’s a nice extra slide in a branding presentation, after the logo and the main applications.
Works well for
- A sponsor logo
- A tournament design
- A club crest

What you can edit in this Christmas Ball Mockup
Everything below is on its own layer:
- Logo or artwork, placed through the smart object
- Object colour, where included
- Background colour
Editing the Christmas Ball Mockup, step by step
- Prepare the artwork in your brand colours.
- In the Layers panel, find the layer with the small smart object icon and double-click it.
- Place your design, hide the sample artwork, save, and go back to the main file.
- Change the background colour at the bottom of the layer stack.
- Export with File › Export › Export As: JPG for sharing, PNG for the web.
Keep your artwork simple. Small objects shrink details quickly, so a bold mark reads better than fine lines.
Where the Christmas Ball Mockup works best
- Make two or three colour versions of a sponsor logo and let the client pick.
- Share a tournament design on Instagram, Behance or Dribbble with a real-looking preview.
- Show a club crest to a client before it goes to print or production.
