Peter Alexander Pattern work, 'Up & Away'- Portfolio Pieces

Another dream job piece, designing the patterns for a spring/ summer collection from Peter Alexander based around the theme of 'Up & Away'- vintage air travel and whimsical dreams including planes, zeppelins, hot air balloons, balloons in general, cloud animals and of course, including designs featuring Peter Alexander's love of animals.

I made a nighty and photoshoped the patterns over the top to see how they worked on fabric.

Jaded Minds CD & Identity Work-2011

Jaded Minds is a fictitious band I made up for one of my portfolio projects. They're an Australian, all girl, indie, alternative rock band out of Sydney, they're so cool they don't even exist yet. 

I used my skills in paper art to create the image of the woman's head and the world inside it (on the cover) and then extended this idea for the poster, CD, t-shirts and totes. 

I also had to create a lyric book, and above is an example of one of the pages showing the lyrics for their song Le Carrousel Mystique (which is actually the lyrics from The Woods by Emmy the Great) and one of the illustrations I did for the booklet showing the band. And yes, I was a member of this band, I provided the "vibes" to the ensemble.

Cake Design, Top

I wanted my cake to look like a vintage travel suitcase (I collect them) and to show places I've been and want to go to.

Photo booth madness!

every party should have a photo booth! I'm in the blue with the sash!

Guest book

This sticker was on the front of the guest book

and these were next to the book

I used an A4 sketch book so I could glue in all my cards and photos in the back!

This is the letterhead I designed as a the thank you letters to be sent to all those who came to my party, using the same rainbow geometric pattern I made for the guest book.

And these were my shoes...amazing no? :)

Daily Inspiration- Coffee Time

The start of a new school term means waking up early and coffee, and loving the beautiful sunny day outside!

Daily Inspiration- Picnic Perfect

Being springtime now, picnics are just one of many things on my mind! Even if today is overcast and sad looking, hopefully the rest of the week will be lovely and warm!
