Nearly 100 years ago, Conrad Hilton shared his vision to fill the world with the light and warmth of hospitality. Our signature Cookie welcome at every DoubleTree by Hilton is just one of the ways we keep that vision going.

Creative Do's and Dont's

When creating your DoubleTree Doodle, we encourage you to let your imagination be your guide while still adhering to our guidelines. Here are a few tips to help you along:

  • When choosing colors for your artwork, less is more. While we will accept full-color artwork, we strongly prefer doodles that use no more than two or three colors due to the printing process used to create our Cookie sleeves.
  • The brown texture of the paper that we use will show through your artwork wherever you have not indicated a color to use.
  • HELPFUL HINT: Use brown Kraft paper or construction paper for this project. You can even use the blank space on a paper bag.
  • We will consider all submissions that follow our guidelines but encourage you to download our template to help with your submission. You can print out our helpful template here.
  • HELPFUL HINT: Print out the second page of the template on a piece of paper and let your imagination run wild – just make sure to lay out the most important part of your artwork in the middle of that area to ensure it gets printed front and center on our sleeves.
