So Much Stuff!

So it's been a while since I last updated and I have a few things from work to show, plus Valentines Stuff. Later I'll also update with the pictures that I've been taking this month and my personal logo that I've been working on.

A business card I designed for one of Dave's customers...they liked it just the way it was, no changes! I was pretty excited too, because they had a really busy looking logo and I didn't feel that it would look right on the card, so I left it out--but I thought maybe they would want the logo and the pictures on top of the information. I think this gives it a much cleaner look though and I'm glad they liked it. Dave gave me a couple of the cards (along with the ET Duval ones) to keep.

WorkTim is working on some sort of program that is going to donate to charities, though I don't really know any of the details. But it's called The Window of Hope Program (as you can see) and he had me draw up some logo ideas for it. Personally the bottom one is my favorite. I liked the simplicty of the H and the blue creating a window effect.

This is the logo Tim went with. I like this one too...it's simple and more direct, but I tend to be more of a fan of typographic logos.

Some Valentines I designed for my sisters.

I printed them out on cardstock and cut them out so that they're little pocket folders. Then I used foam tape to apply the little heart details so that they'd pop off the page some. I'm pretty happy with how the came out. I think if I ever get the time I'd like to try a smaller scale version, maybe like a 5x7. I think it would look nicer.

This is one that I actually designed for WorkTim to give to his daughter. I left the white box so he could write in what he wanted to say, but this works as a generic valentine for anyone.

This is the card that started it all! It's Timmy's. Once I had the design for this (WorkTim said I should work for Hallmark or something), you can see that I based my other designs off this one. I just really liked the layout I came up with. I could scale all four designs down and make them a bit more generic to be a little four pack of valentines pockets or even just digital files with spaces to type in.

WorkTim let me print the card at work, so it's like 11x17 sized and I attached a little envelope in the corner (super awesome little stationery that I bought at Target) and wrote my note to him in there. 

These are the GORGEOUS flowers that Tim gave me! I love them so much! And they smell amazing. I wish my room could always smell like fresh flowers. I'm going to be very sad when these die. :[

This is just a little Valentines doodle that I made up to put on facebook because I just didn't have the time to make cards for everyone that I wanted.

And then I was just goofing around coming up with more little logos for my initials. I like the top right and the middle left the best. Any thoughts?
