Lukes Birthday cakes

I love to bake and I love finding new ways to present my cakes. These were for my house mates birthday, he loves chocolate biscuits so these have mini oreo's for eyes! They tasted yummy too.

Christmas Surface Pattern - TIgerprint comp

I have entered a current competition on Tigerprint for a christmas surface pattern. I have chosen to use red and white because they will always be on trend for this time of year. I have kept them fairly simple with repeating stripes.

Be Happy

Poster/ card design.
I wanted to do something a bit different from my usual work but still keep the fun/quirkyness of my style. I began with a phrase and then added hand-drawn lines which curved like the writing. The next step is to add colour, I chose to use just a few colours to keep it simple and limited.

Final images

These are the final layouts for the business cards and they were very happy with them. Now that they are printed they look pretty good and are now in circulation, some even went out at the MTV awards!

Its been a while..

Its has been a while since I have been creative so when a friend at work asked my to design his business cards I immediately said yes. He owns his own coffee business which is getting more and more successful. They already had their logo so it was more of a layout task and fitting everything on.

This is a shot of some of my initial ideas, the black side is the back.

Designing for a job

I am in the middle of doing some designing for a job application and one of the tasks is to do a pirate peep-hole board and this is mine so far. Still have a few more things to add like a treasure chest and parrot.

more cards..

This simple but elegant card was designed for my grandparents 60th (diamond) wedding anniversary. I followed a tutorial on how to create the diamonds and designed a simple rose flower.



This mothers day card was a bit of fun and used one of my characters from my uni work. Using InDesign i added the text so that i could create different colours, sizes and adjust the height.
