Notepad







I'm the type of person who has to write a list for myself when I go to the store. Not only does it help me remember the things I need to pick up, but it also helps keep me on budget. If it's not on the list, I probably don't need to buy it. So when we were required to make a notepad of some sort that we would print and bind, I thought a "shopping list" pad would be very practical for me. We were only allowed to use 2 colors and 2 tints of each color. I think my fave is the top one because of the more vibrant colors.

Peach Jam



I am attempting to make some peach freezer jam this weekend, here's the label I created. I've never done this before so it could be very interesting....but hey, at least the jar will look good even if the jam doesn't, right?

Skills USA Pin Design

For school we were required to design a pin (yes, the kind you wear) for a national conference called Skills USA. Below you can see my layout design. (You can click on the image to see at it a better resolution and size)

Magazine Article Layout

This is an InDesign project that I had a lot of fun with. We were required to do a cover page, table of contents, and two page article spread. I enjoyed doing this as it was different than anything else I've worked on so far & I was pleased with the outcome.




Logo

This first logo was an assignment requirement for my 2D course. There are a few things I'd like to go back and fix, such as perhaps the text, and I'm hoping I will sometime get time to.



A Movie Poster Make-Over

As a photoshop assignment we were required to "re-make" a movie poster by taking 3 or more separate images & combining them together to make them believable as one single image. I chose to make-over the Juno movie poster. I wanted to keep the general feel of the original poster but opted to exclude the faces in order to put the focus on the pregnant belly and "adoption classifieds" newspaper stack. There is definitely plenty of room for touch ups on this project, but being one of the first of it's kind that I've had to do I thought I'd post it anyways. Just ignore some of the rough edges.....thank you :D

Graduation Announcements

Below are some graduation announcements I designed for my cousin. Jessi wanted a green, purple, and brown color palette. (Although I had to throw the brown and yellow one in as well... :D)
