Product: "Catch Her in Time"

An actual print out from the design "Catch Her in Time" made for a friend. Design originally posted here.


"Catch Her in Time"

Product: "Wavello"

Another general card to give, the card's illustration is a hand in the front and once you flip it, the hand inside moves as if waving. Reminded me of those sketches that move when you flip the pages fast enough so this
Inside left simply reads "hi."
Your message can be written across the top and below the text.

"Wavello"

Product: "Are(Y)ou"

A card design I made earlier in the year. It's a general card in which you can send anytime. The giant arrow on the face of the card is pointing to the recipient.
Ok I'll admit: my printer is losing ink so there is banding... which is not part of the design! Nevertheless, this printout shows you the premise of the card.
Inside, "You are______" is printed and the sender can put anything [s]he wants. For example, "You are thoughtful" or "You are such a loser." So really, anything you want. haha
On the backs of all the cards are the titles printed.

Card: "Bake On" [Birthday]

Who: My friend's birthday is coming up and she has a likening for bacon products. She's laughed at bacon novelties such as band aid branded bacon or bacon floss.

What: Bacon. You see it right.
Why: The tagline is "Get your bake on." because the gift I'm giving is a cupcake pan and book. We got those designer cupcakes in which they cost much and so learning how to bake em will save money. Ya dig.

Card: "03172009" [Birthday]

Who: It was my friend's birthday from high school [who's my girlfriend's closest friend]. She is having a dinner tomorrow night and we are all having dinner and this is the card that will accompany her gift.

What: Simple design using numerical type for her birthday "03 17 2009" Colored background to add some color

Why: Text is added just to make sure it's crystal clear--"march seventeen two thousand nine". Inside it reads "happy birthday hazel"

Card: "Catch Her in Time" [Gift Card]

Who: My friend needed a card to give to her friend in which she was giving Catcher in the Rye, and so naturally wanted a card's theme around that.

What: She explained that he really cares for his niece and that one day when she's old enough, wants to give her his copy of his [annotated] copy of the book. My friend explained as well that the book really meant a lot for him considering he pictured himself in the book. Lastly, she said that he wants to keep her from harm and keep her from falling to a life that she isn't fit to live in.

Why: I googled Catcher in the Rye and I remember I too have the classic cover of this book. It's simple white book with colored bands in the upper left corner left the title free and clean to read. I used a play of words and placed "Catch Her in Time" partly due her friend wanting to keep his niece in check. Instead of "J.D. Salinger" I put the To and From.

I love using play of words when I can and I think this fits in rightly so.

Resume: Cover [In Progress]

I'm currently redoing my [general] resume while adding my design to it for a visual flair. I'm applying for this health related job over the summer--a paid internship [which I could really use the money] and wanted to make sure I leave a good impression.

I'll post my resume as soon as it's completed.
