I have been a member of the Walker Festival Committee since 2007. I have opportunities to use my design skills in all sorts of different ways. Last year, I designed a popcorn trailer we acquired. My hope was to have it look like a big box of popcorn – using large popcorn vinyl decals on the windows. But as we are a small community and the materials were donated – we had a smaller budget. All in all, it turned out quite well.
Recently, I have been doing a lot of freelance design work for Agent X. They are a fun and very talented group of people. A few weeks ago they gave me probably one of the best, if not the best, clients I’ve had to do work for so far in my career. It was Apple! I designed a job posting for Careerbuilder. Below is a screenshot of it.
My good friend and old co-worker, Jenn Maine, recently got a job in Detroit at Gyro and is moving there soon! I am so happy and excited for her – although I will miss seeing her often. She is very talented and will do great there. As a gift, I made her an owl pillow of course. She is quite the animal lover and it seemed quite fitting. I had been working on this hand stitched felt owl anyway and thought by turning it into a pillow it would be a perfect new apartment gift. Here’s to you Jenn, love ya.
I had fun making business cards for my sister-in-law. She makes custom headbands and other hair accessories for little girls. I printed them on some white sparkle paper. They glitter nicely in the light.
