Latest Design Projects

These are few of the projects on which I have been working in the last months. There is much more to show but I have been very busy lately with new projects and TheInkNest.

1. Logo and banner design for The Pancake Events. Lauren likes feminine floral and elegant designs.

2. Logo and website graphic design for Mon Petit Monde. Swiss shop with assortment of children furniture and nursery decor. The owner, Justyna is a work-at-home-mom who started a new business. It is always inspiring to work with such women and to exchange baby photos.

3. Banner design for Planeta Vino. I was craving vacation while designing this banner. I don’t want to say I was craving wine because that would sound a bit like alcoholism. But defininetly the feeling of sipping wine in Spain in a warm sunny afternoon.

Blog Design – Creating Your Lotus

Creating Your Lotus blog design

This project has been a new venture in the world of spiritual blogging. Yasmina writes about religion and spirituality. I was inspired by her explanation of creating your lotus. She wrote that the lotus rises every day from the depths of the dark pond to reach the light. This immediately created a visual in my mind of a lotus coming from the footer of the blog to the header where it reaches rays of light.

I highly recommend Sabina/Design Garden! She created my blog: CreatingYourLotus.com … She cares about every little detail of the design process and she pours her creativity and passion into her designs. She listened to and applied everything that I desired, giving helpful suggestions where needed, never forcing her opinion. She believes that customer knows best. She promptly answered every email, no matter how silly or complex the question. She went the extra mile and guided me into hosting, SEO, and every aspect of blogging that had nothing to do with designing… In my book that’s consulting and should be an extra cost, but it wasn’t, she did it willingly. I went from zero knowledge to working my site with ease. I don’t plan on going to any other designer and I don’t think you should either. I’m most grateful and ABSOLUTELY thrilled with Sabina’s professionalism and awesomeness. Check out my blog at the address above to see her creative mastery in action! I vote 10 out of 10.

Blog design – A Lovely Place To Land

A Lovely Place To Land Blog Design

Recently I posted about a banner design I created for the website of Amanda Hervey – a freelance writer, editor & stylist. I also designed her personal blog –  A Lovely Place To Land.

While the theme of the first banner was “Exploring backroads” and illustrated her experience of traveling through Kentucky, the theme of her personal blog is “An oasis in a busy world (my landing place)”. I really like this theme filled with childhood/motherhood symbols.

Amanda has a very personal and pretty style of writing. The blog design reflects this, setting the mood for a really wonderful place to land.

I have to admit, when I first reached out to Sabina, I was nervous that the physical distance between us would be a problem. I just couldn’t imagine how she would be able to create a look that expressed where my heart is without ever stepping foot in Kentucky, where I live and write. But once I started working with her, I quickly realized that she is one of those rare people who truly listen for the sound of your heartbeat and then works to create something so beautiful and deeply personal, you couldn’t have imagined it yourself! She created both my professional writing site and my blog and both are perfect representations of my home and heart and for that, I’m deeply grateful. People always say that business isn’t personal, which I don’t understand. You put everything you have into your work and Sabina understands that; luckily, she puts everything she has into her work as well so you can’t go wrong when you put your business in her hands.

Latest Design Projects

1. This branding set I designed for a pair of photographers – Adorn Photography. The girls insisted on having snowflakes as the central theme of their branding. Initially I thought that this may turn out too seasonal. After getting to know them, I think, in an abstract way, the branding fits with their unique style.

2. Logo design for Misala Handmade. The client was so excited by the Etsy set that I made before, that they ordered a branding set. I love when clients return to me and it makes me feel appreciated as a designer.

3. and 4. I designed two blogs in the last month and both are about cooking. It is interesting how two designs on the same topic can differ so much. The first is The Red Recipe Book for a client who wanted to surprise her mother and give her this blog as a gift (the modern way of making gifts to parents). The second blog I designed for Jennita Russo, an amazing woman who is a dancer, choreographer, private chef, florist and event/wedding planner.

Once again I wanted to thank you for amazing job you did on my website. You are a such a talented artist/designer and made the whole creative process a delight. I greatly appreciated your attention to detail, the quickness of completion, and your expertise and guidance through the whole process!

5. A website banner for Amanda Hervey – a freelance writer, editor & stylist. Amanda is the author of “Kentucky A to Z”. The theme of the banner is “Exploring backroads” and I was inspired by pictures of horses and scenery from Kentucky.

6. Blog banner for Mareike Murray – a wedding photographer based in Glasgow, Scotland. The theme of the banner is “Scottish Highland Vintage Romance”. Mareike likes scenery filled with light and also lochs and flowers.
