New Designs- January 2010.
T-shirt design- I LOVE buttons so wanted to incorporate these into a design- i took photos with my digital SLR and created some buttons on Adobe Photoshop. With this i included one of my favourite quotes/saying "As cute as a button" I think this t-shirt design would be great with added stitch and added buttons :)
Rabbit Design- I have began creating some easter style designs- I have been using Adobe Photoshop alot recently and i am trying to create myself lots of patterns/images which i can incorporate into patterns. This week my focus has been upon cute rabbits :)
Painterly Florals- I have been looking through my previous work this week and came across my university work on flowers. I scanned in my favourite imagery and fiddled with the scales/colours and textures on Adobe Photoshop to create some painterly floral designs.

George @ Asda Work Placement Designs
In November i attended two weeks work placement at George @ Asda.Working at George in the girls and baby design department has given me experience of working in a busy design studio and the design processes of the fashion industry. During my two week work placement I created CAD girls wear designs, created trend forecast reports, attended supplier meetings, Photographed and filed garment samples and general office duties, Giving me an insight of working in the design environment.
My main project during my time there consisted of designing embroidery designs for girls jeans, I created these using Adobe Photoshop and adding them to photographs of jeans to show the design in context.

Sketchy Florals
The new year has certainly boosted my Creativity, I have been producing more designs taken from original hand-drawn drawings and adapting them on Adobe Photoshop to create Repeat Pattern floral designs, which i think would make lovely giftwrap/stationary.

Cute Owls
I've been doing my research and it seems as if owls are a big trend and everywhere in pattern so i thought i would give it a go on Adobe Photoshop and i love my result!! 
- Image 1- College tree from previous work with photoshop owls- Could be good for a card design or as a fashion placement design e.g T-Shirt
- Image 2- Repeat Owl Pattern cretaed on Adobe Photoshop- Could work well as a repeat fashion/accessories print or as Stationary
New Year = New work!
Happy New Year!
This christmas and the new year has given me a new surge of creativeness :) I have new designs and new ideas and inspiration.
First of all My Grandparents asked me for a piece of artwork for christmas to hang on their wall- for this i wanted to create something new so i handstitched a flowered fabric piece which i then scanned into photoshop and adapted it to create a repeat pattern. With this i then used the repeat pattern as a design for childrenswear- Process shown below-

Cards Designs- November 2009
Frames-
Looking back at my old previous card designs from university, i was inspired to take these designs and adapt them on photoshop and create new designs. My frames designs features frames with sketches, objects, texts and photos inside. I love the combined techniques and textures which i think gives the image illustrative collage look.

University Work- Ceramic Designs.
Ceramic Designs-
Another example of 3rd year university work, This brief was set by artist Matthew Rice, and the task was to look at Wedgwood ceramic designs and re-invent some new designs. I chose an oriental theme as for my ceramics based upon birds, flowers and birdcages in feminine colours.

I am adding more of my university portfolio work upon my blog to create a online portfolio untill i get a website up and going. During my 3rd year at uni i did a two week brief for Watermark Cards, I chose the theme of objects and birthday presents for the female market. I used a variation of techniques included photoshop desgins, screen printing and collage. I am thinking of designing some more variations on Adobe Photoshop to form more of a collection.
