What a difference colour makes.

Just messing around today with colour.

Illustration of an ironing lady.

I have been asked to design an flyer  and a web icon for a friend who is starting up an ironing business. I wanted to have an icon that would stand out when used in a small size on a web directory. So I have kept it simple, bold and bright. Below is the header of the flyer.

Contemporary monogram.

I liked the idea of a monogram so much I decided to design a contemporary version.

Wedding monogram.

I was asked by a engaged couple to design a simple monogram for their wedding stationery. They requested to have it in black for their formal wedding. I think it is a great idea for a young couple to have their own monogram.

Self promotion card.

Yah....finally I finished my card and I am pleased with it. It took some time but I got there in the end. Now I can start handing  them out.

Elegant contemporary invitation.

Contemporary wedding invitations

Why is it always so much harder to design a flyer for myself than for anybody else? Does anybody else have this problem? I have been trying to design a flyer to promote my wedding stationery. People often ask me for a card and I have to admit I don't have one. One of those things I have been meaning to do since moving office. I must be the only graphic designer who does not have a card. Below is a photo I have been working on for the flyer.

Australian House and Garden Magazine.

One of my very talented sister's (I have 3) has been featured in the Australian House and Garden magazine. It is about her art her family and her house. She has been an op shopper for many years and has collected some amazing 50 and 60's furniture. Not only is she amazing she is beautiful too! Her name is Chris Bellamy.

Red heart wedding invitation.

I have designed a simple bold, red heart design invitation. A bit of a departure my my normal softer style. It would look great with a red ribbon in the top left corner. It would certainly be noticed and perfect for a romantic couple. No mistaking that it is a wedding invitation.
