On a roll now...

Another look completed in 2008 - introducing a logo for Carol Sullivan Photography. Carol wanted to bring some fun color into her logo, polka dots, and mimic traditional photo filters. I'd say we accomplished that!

A Couple of New logos

Been hard at work lately finalizing some new logos. Launching a new logo for Lisa at Mashak Imaging and for Donna at Exposures of Life.

Thanks ladies!

New Logo for Angie

I created this new look for Angie over at Simplicity Photography. The scroll frame was inspired by a new victorian-esque pendent I recently bought. Just goes to show you there is inspiration in the everyday!

Coming soon | Toppings

I am working on a few sets of "toppings" to add to the Asuka Vanilla templates (or any other projects you want to dress up like storyboards, cards, or blends). Simple color washes, understated dots and petite stripes make up this collection to add just that simple something to any project. Just drag and drop the patterned backgrounds onto your canvas and go! Below is a sneak peek of one collection used on an Asuka Vanilla template. And depending on how adventurous I get, there might be simple phrase brushes or pngs included as well :)

Stay tuned for more info :)

New store in the works

I'm working on installing an online shop for all my products so that you can pay online and download your products right then and there. Its been in the works for awhile now, just haven't had the time to sit down and customize it. It is on my (very long) to do list though! Won't that be cool?

New Logo for Melissa

Launching a new logo for Melissa Stephens Photography, I love how elegant it is! and swirls are *so* trendy right now! So many times my clients want bright or fun colors in their logo, and its nice to get back to classic, simple, grey.
