New Blogger for Mariett's Cakes & Crafts

Since recently setting up my own Blog on my revamped website and experiencing how easy and flexible it is I've started telling my clients all about Blogger.

I'm excited to report that I've now just setup a Blog for a client who creates beautiful artifical cakes, floral arrangements and balloon stands. She was looking for ways to display the numerous photos she'd taken over the years to show interested friends & family members and Blogger has provided the perfect solution. We've been able to upload all the photos and at the same time give her an on-line presence. Blogger has really given us the tools to create a cheap website that she can refer interested parties to.

If you're interested you can take a look for yourself, you may find it's the perfect solution for you too!

Inspired by my garden...

Work has been  hectic over recent months and there hasn't been much time to enjoy the outdoors. I find today the warmth of the sun and rich colours of my herb garden have inspired me to bring out the camera and snap a few photos.

I've been working on a number of new projects, 2 of which have involved developing logos and branding for new businesses. This is always an exciting time for both my clients and me as a designer to come up with new concepts.

These logos have now been finalised and I've added them to the portfolio section of my website. The colour "orange" is the predominate colour theme used in both logos. A dynamic colour, it is associated with power, warmth, vitality and endurance... making it a perfect fit for a new business selling solar systems (Solar Smart Solutions) and a vibrant and energetic IT consultant who is both intuitive and  passionate about what she does.

With a couple of other exciting new projects currently taking shape I'm looking forward to my next blog which will hopefully include some photos of a new product range being stocked by a well known store. More on that shortly :-)
