Design -March 29, 2010

After 18th January comes 29th March !! - That's what this blog seems to suggest !!
Well, I was too busy with loads of problems (who ain't ? ), and most importantly, overhauling our own website. We hope to bring the new look on soon.

Meanwhile, I spent a couple of hours today ( a Monday afternoon !! - oh...isn't it supposed to be the most busy day of the week? ) ....anyway, back to where I was...I designed a new header for my recipe blog, and I am quite happy about it....and here it comes :

I used Photoshop, a free stock photo from stock exchange , a couple of free fonts and slices of my own recipe photographs to make the design.

I made a greeting card today , where I have used a photograph as the base of the greeting card.

I have taken the snap myself.

Daily Design Pledge 07 January, 2010

Today is the first day to keep my Daily Design Pledge !!

So here's something I designed in about half an hour. I used the various custom shapes available under the custom shape tool of Photoshop to design a banner/ poster ( though a horizontal one) , in line with the Copenhagen Summit, on the theme of Environment protection. Shouldn't it be the foremost pledge of all individuals in the new year ?

I am , however, not happy with the text warp. I know it could be managed better in some vector graphic software.

I'd be happy to get feedback on the work.
