I was beyond thrilled when my cousin-in-law, Michelle, told me that she’s taking on more baking projects and she was in need of a logo and some business cards for Sweet Solutions. These are my favorite kinds of projects because they combine my two loves – design and food! The design process was a piece of (…wait for it….) CAKE and I’m so happy with the results.

Here’s the super cute logo:

Here’s a logo I created for my super-talented cousin-in-law, Richelle and her jewelry design business, MJ Designs. I also created a fun Etsy banner for her shop:

So cute.

I was asked to revamp the MGA Boston chapter’s logo. I had recently relocated to Boston at the time, so I did some research and pulled together an inspiration board to help me create the logo:

From there, I created a handful of ideas to present. Here are a few of my faves:

These business cards are a redesign for Fusion Media, a sister company of Meg Baisden Photography. This design offers a fresh approach to how the information is presented. Since Charles is so well-connected within the social media arena, I wanted to make sure that when someone receives his business cards, they’re able to contact him conventionally (by phone) or otherwise (the interweb)!

This is my family’s new restaurant in Pensacola, Florida. I began designing the logo three years ago and the rest of the collateral (job forms, menus, business cards, etc., etc.) in the last 6 months. It’s been a whirlwind! Here are snapshots of various Five Sisters Blues Café collateral: (l-r) top part of the cooler behind the bar, lunch & dinner menu, front door signage, inside menu, logo screen-printed on tumblers, and Sunday brunch menu.

A fun and whimsical logo design for my dear friend Lai – an up-and-coming talented cake decorator from Port St. Lucie, Florida.

I did some super-cute business cards for her too:

I did this logo pro-bono to benefit the Boys and Girls Club of St. Lucie County. At the event, I was astonished by their backdrop for picture-taking – it was a life-sized wooden replica of my logo design. Here’s a picture of it:

How cool is that?!

This logo was created for a Martin County Leadership Group’s end-of-the-term fundraiser. It was a Halloween-themed party, obviously.

I also did some Save the Date postcards and these self-mailing invitations:

My favorite part? Well, there are two: (1) “The Grave Details” and (2) R.S.V.P. – “Dying… to go” or “Sorry, rigor mortis set in… cannot attend.” Yep, came up with those myself!

Happy cows come from Florida, too! I developed the rest of the corporate identity for this client as well.

When I worked at Tara Biek Creative, I had the pleasure of creating pieces for wonderful, non-profit organizations in our area. The Children’s Home Society needed a logo for their local Heart Gallery program.

If you are not familiar, the Heart Gallery is a traveling photographic and audio exhibit created to find ‘forever families’ for children in foster care. It’s a meaningful collaboration of photographers that donate their time to take beautiful portraits of the kids and the coordinators at CHS to bring these exhibits to life. It was absolutely heartwarming (pun intended) to be a part of it.
