Hello Etsy

So, I’ve created an Etsy shop. It's kind of exciting to begin this adventure. I’m offering some prints to start out, since I have so much fun making them. Here’s my first one! 

C.S. Lewis is one of my favorite authors and tea is my favorite drink, so that’s what inspired this print! I’m selling it for $9.00 on Etsy, so feel free to check it out and maybe buy one. :)

Compassion Connect Facebook Fan Page

My first day at my internship I got to design a Facebook fan page graphic for Compassion Connect, an awesome non-profit organization that's all about churches uniting to help their community. I think I went through four or five revisions on this before the final one.

Portfolio Site

Here's a link to my portfolio website that I made as a final assignment for one of my classes.

70s Design Brochure

Here's a brochure for a made-up 70's graphic design show at the Portland Art Museum.  

Outside Spread

Inside Spread

Can you dig it?

I'm working on a graphic design timeline of the 70s. It involves this. Maybe.

That's the first slide from the presentation we did. I might use it in some way in the timeline.

Reading Habits Infographic

This is an infographic about the reading habits of my class. We chose our subjects, surveyed each other for data, and decided how to organize it. We weren't allowed to use photos, but other than that, this assignment was pretty open-ended. I think it turned out pretty cool on paper :)

Mini Vroom Broom

For one project, my team had to make the Mini Vroom Broom the "Lexus of brooms" and explain how to use it in a video and on a leave-behind piece. I designed a package for the leave-behind. Here are views of the front and back of the package. The back is shown sideways so you can see the how-to better. 


Photographs by the lovely Ariana Lopez :)

 

She Flies with Her Own Wings

For our final project, we made both horizontal and vertical brochures for a pretend event at the Oregon History Museum. We had a two-color budget, with no images allowed. These are the covers I made for mine.

New Blog Design!

I was tired of using one of the same old, same old preset blog themes, so I whipped up a little design of my own. It's not the greatest, but at least it's something :) This is redundant right now, since you can see the design already, but I thought it might be nice to look back on in the future.

 

Here are some of the backgrounds I thought about using. I'm not even going to show you my first header design, though.

Color Magazine

This project was to create two magazine spreads about color from templates my classmates and I made. We were given copy, some of which we were required to use. We were allowed to use two images that we didn't create ourselves.

Hummingbird Poster

One of my projects during my second term was creating a poster. I could only use Chaparral Pro font and an odd number of images from BibliOdyssey: Gould Hummingbirds.

Business Cards

An assignment I had during my first term was to make monograms for myself, and incorporate those monograms into business cards.

Line Portraits

One of my assignments in my first term at MHCC was to create simple, black and white, line portraits.

Yearbook Banners

At the end of my first term in the Integrated Media: Graphic Design program at MHCC, we made a "yearbook" website for all the Integrated Media students. This is one set of banners that I made for the website.
