Card design modified :)


Cards

Just a couple of cards I made the other day... Cats! I love cats! mmm just realised I've put the text the wrong way round on the birthday card, ill have to correct that.






My first sale!

My first sale! Yes I just posted off 3 books and a set of 5 cards to some friends I know through a game. Got paid and I feel really proud of myself! I'm glad that both my books and cards are being reconised and liked by others, not just myslef.

Cards

We had a workshop today and we were given a newspaper photo , I got a picture of an elephant swimming the ocean and a story popped into my head about a male elephant searching for his lost love. So I drew the ending and popped it on a card :P



Puffin bookjacket, Alice in Wonderland - initial sketches




Editorial. Sometimes we need help with little decisions, too.

This is an editorial project I've just completed. It tured out very sucessful! All I would need to do for it is to make the human more visible in the image and then it would be a winner ;)

Easter card design


Mothers day card

My attempt at using illustrator woop! I think it was sucessful, also im sorry its a bit blurry cos well it wouldnt let me upload a pdf file so i had to settle for png... doh



Note Books

These are some refilable note books I have make, the pages inside are not attatched just tied in with elastic. :) I thought it was a neat idea thought up in the shower! Im going to sell them at the Uni fund raiser tomorrow. My card, well didnt turn out good... they scanned through all pixieled which i didnt notice till I printed them. Oh well I will do some more.







Sunday, 7 February 2010

These are some Valentines day cards I did for Uni, they are for a fund raiser to get money for our end of year show. Ive been craving to use my marker pens again so I used them to colour. The first one is cos I wanted to do some anime... the second is inspired by a braclet I have (super cute) and the third is inspired by the train idea of carrying lots of love. I'm happy with them for quick designs.
Also I'm making note books with fabric covers (I will upload them once I've done them.)
