LFCC memories

Here are a few pics from last weekend's Comicon event. It was loads of fun and will definitely attend the next event. A big thank you all that came by the stall - see you at next expo/con! xxx

The Star Trek talk on Sunday morning with Morgan Sheppard, left, and Walter Koenig (Chekov), right. Two thoroughly charming and funny fellas.

Scary man. (He walked through Brixton that get-up)

Card designs

Here are a couple of card designs I submitted to the two recent Tigerprint competions.

The brief for the 'Hand-Drawn' compeition was to create a hand-drawn design. I wasn't the above isn't the actual entry as I was not entirly happy with it. I chose to create valentines greeting card, drawing and cutting out all letters/elements, cutting them out and assmebling them on a separate piece of paper so that you get some nice shadows when the whole piece is scanned (a method I used on my 'This is for You' and 'Dear Princess' books). Considering the target audience (the M&S shopper) I decided to add some colour but the digital manipulation caused most of the shadows to be lost and, on reflection, I'm not happy with the colours I chose. I much prefer the design in black with with the shadows evoking memroies of old black and white romantic movies, echoing the sentiment.


For the 'Word-up' competion, the brief was to come up with a caption for a special occaision, eg. birthday, wedding, new baby, (I forget the rest). I chose anniversery - perhaps the caption is a little tepid...
