More Stuff

Totally forgot about my Frequent Smoocher Cards yesterday when I was doign that group shot. Perhaps that's because I hadn't printed them out.  So here is singular of them and another shot of all of my items together.

I didn't take these to print because I didn't want to fight w/ pixeltation and because I don't really have any real life pics in my portfolio thus far. I might add them later on if I can get some consistency w/ other photos going. For now, here is my board that I will be presenting in class. 

I got someone to print out some good shirts which I basically sold my soul for. They'll be portfolio ready. 

Specialty Items!

Here is a group pic of all of my specialty items. I figured what better place than in the kitchen. unfortunately it's dark and the lighting isn't all that great so I think I'm gonna retake this in the morning before I print it out. Yeah I know I'm printing late but things just haven't been going my way w/ these darn items. Instead of two shirts I'm down to one. *womp womp* But I did my best and I will have professional shirts for the  portfolio. I just will dammit. lol. Everything else turned out just great so I think overall I'm pleased.

Final Touches...

SOOOOOO,

It's getting down to the wire. I've officially taken next week off from both jobs to clear my scedule for any and everything that may go wrong and for portfolio preparation.  I sit here now, needing to go eat, but am glued to Pink Panther (my mac) making changes to any and everything I can so that it's perfect!

Once I perfect everything I'll make some posts about what's going in my portfolio. You know, show a little leg.

Hope everyone isn't going insane like I probably will.

Toodles.

Stickers Part 1

I'm tired so you'll gonly get one version of the stickers tonight. But here's the first one I did. Not married to the swirl in the center but when I did polka dots it looked like a pizza. At least this way it looks kinda like candy, candy = sweets, you get the picture. lol

Shirts!!

Here are the shirt templates. I noticed the link Sean had on his blog to get shirts made and I think I might use them or this screen printing shop I used to work for. The prices seem pretty reasonable.

Pretty cute I think.

Moving Right Along

This week I plan to knock out my specialty Items, like forreal forreal. Shouldn't I be done with those? Yeah, probably. But between 2 jobs, school and that freakin earth day poster that literally knocked me on my ass what's a girl to do. But I have been letting eveything marinate in my mind and here is what I've come up with.

T-Shirts: for the Smooches crew or simply for Smooches Fans. why not? Cami cakes does it and they're so cute.

I want to do two different versions. One with just the Smooches Logo on it and another that says "I 'heart' Smooches" with smooches being the cupcake/chef hat. The shirts will be two different colors just to add a little diversity. 

Another thing I thought about was a a box that would have the Smooches logo on it somewhere.  Either that or I will make stickers to place at the closure of the boxes.

Magnets. Because they're cute and I love them.

Frequent Buyer cards: I go to Smoothie King a lot and one thing I notice that they give to their customers are frequent buyer cards so after they make so many purchases they get a product free.  I thought this would be cute for Smooches and good for her loyal customers.  Something like after you buy a certain combination of treats you get a free batch of brownies. 

I thought about making a flavors booklet but she has a lot of combinations of flavors and a lot of items and at this point I would have to scale it down to a flavors sheet which might not be as appealing and I'm running out of time.

That is all for now. 

Final Earth Day Posters

After about 5 different versions and 3 animal print themed cupcakes later I finally came up with a poster that works.  Thanks to a lil seed planted in my head from Stan I put something together and I'm happy with it.  Of course, there are 2 versions of it just to be on the safe side.  One is a little more detailed than the other. I was soooo frustrated with this assignment I guess because my mind has been stuck on Smooches Sweets items for so long this totally threw me off.

Anywho, here they are.

Also just for kicks here are the other two cupcakes I designed that didn't make the poster.
