From Cartoon Character Building Blocks to Pink-Hued Hair Campaigns:

Many say that print is a dying medium, but these print trends are out to prove them wrong. With a little creativity, print advertising can be as inventive and fresh as an interactive app.

The most imaginative examples of print advertising we've seen in 2012 include cartoon character building blocks, high school yearbook campaigns and backwards movie ads. Though these campaigns showcase their creativity by way of sheer design and wit, some print campaigns take it a step further by incorporating creative placement and use of the physical medium, such as the interchangeable lookbook.
