Designed this...

A digitally designed e-flyer mockup using original painted and ink backgrounds. Here is the collage that it is based on, below.... It turned out to be a bit too random and arty for the client, LOL, so I've gone a lot more graphic for the next mockup but I love this version and still wanted to share it somewhere.


Ooh I am thrilled that my '3 steps to ice cream' layout was selected from the Elle's Studio flickr gallery to win a couple of items from the shop because I used one of her calendar tags on the layout. They select one or two layouts from the gallery each month, and I was one of the September winners. It's not news that I love Elle's studio, I use her items in Q Tea kits on a regular basis, so it makes me happy to choose something new to play with :)

I'm one of 10,000 people around Australia entering the Canon Photo5 photography competition, which gives you 5 items that you have to photograph creatively. I have done three of the five so far, but the one that I am super happy is my 'ribbon' entry, a photo I used my vintage typewriter for on Saturday...
These other two I've done so far are ok, not thrilling, but something to enter at least. The crayon I have an idea for, I just can't do it at home so it will have to wait, and the cocktail umbrella has me stumped so far. Originality is a real challenge... among 10,000 people it is unlikely to think of something unique, but it's a fun project anyhow.


Q Tea Kits are sponsoring The Art is Found this fortnight... keep an eye out, later in the week the challenge will be posted and you could win a 'Domo Arigato Mr Roboto' kit. In the meantime, I spent last night cutting trims and fabric for the November kit, which is just so cool, I can't wait to post the sneak peek in a week from now. It's another organic-feeling kit, which are my faves :)
