Okay, so in my last post I talked about a "recent opportunity" that got me thinking about starting a side business to utilize some of the skills & talents I have in Adobe Photoshop. I decided to take the plunge and see where it goes, and I used this project as a "springboard" of sorts to launch it.
One of our pastors has a son that's graduating from high school this summer and his wife came to me toward the end of last year (coincidentally around the same time that a certain well-known company that sells senior class/graduation stuff visited the school) and asked if I thought I could design a graduation announcement for them. I told her I'd be glad to see what I could come up with. When she told me what this certain well-known company was charging, I told her I definitely could save her a little bit of money. :)
She had a couple of brochures/pamphlets from this well-known company so I took those as a guideline -- hey, it's been awhile since I graduated, okay? I was able to find a picture of the mascot of the high school online and this is what I came up with:
This, of course, doesn't look exactly like it -- it was a top-fold card, 4 1/4 x 5 1/2, with the design on the front cover, and the wording on the inside as you lifted the flap up. But you get the idea. I was pretty pleased with how it turned out. So that was my first project operating under the name of Lindsay Wenzel Designs and I hope there will be many more projects to come!
