The beginning of the week I parted with these magnetic save the dates. Modern, simple, bold and eye catching was the brief, along with the colour scheme of orange, black and white. Apart from their beauty I'm sharing them with you today as they are functionally great too. The idea is this, intended guests place the magnet onto their fridge to remind them of the wedding date until the official invite is sent out. A great idea, and they're so simple to do. Here's how: Firstly get them designed by a professional. We then got everything printed at a local copy centre. These cards are digitally printed onto white hi-bulk card so they're sturdy and we went with double sided, but it could easily be achieved single sided. The magnets are printed to whatever size you like, we needed 60mm x 60mm. Here's the finished product: Secondly, follow the step by step...
Julz + Shane And that gorgeous smile did not stop all day, which is incredible because to say this day was wet, is an absolute understatement. It rained and rained and rained! So hopefully as the saying goes, it does bring great luck for the bride and groom. As most of you know I've been a part of this beautiful wedding from the very beginning as part of the bridal party but I also designed the stationery for the event ... so I'd like to share with you how it all went on the day! You can have a closer look at the invitation pack I designed here. It also showcases a website I designed for the lovely couple and their international audience. Here is the Ceremony 'Order of service' booklet: and here's the reception table stationery including table names (engraved timber), place cards and rubber stamped favour bags &...
'WALKING THE TALK' always feel somewhat deflated if a business comes to me with all the plans in the world, but in the end are not capable of 'walking the talk'. What I found so refreshing about the new team at Chaz Floors - now Chaz Floors & Blinds.... Is that they came to me with an open mind and because of this we have been able to work together to transform their brand into a consistent, strong visual identity that reflects their culture, service and product - perfectly. They now 'walk the talk'. Initially Chaz approached us to redesign their website... but once they saw the 'design difference' and realised the impact a consistent 'look and feel' can have. They realised they had a number issues that needed to be addressed. The first being the look of their brand - it did not reflect their modern products and they...
My creative energy was in overdrive with this one! When one of my best friends decided she was getting married, I was so excited. Obviously for the fact that she had found her 'One', but also because we are two very like-minded creative souls, and with this energy working together on an event - you can ensure the end result is going to be nothing short of 'visually exciting'! The colour palette alone is enough to keep me up all night sketching ideas but the fact we have two people with a culturally rich background of African and Indigenous, the ideas came, shall we say ... naturally. I'm absolutely honoured to be an integral part of this most gorgeous wedding in being asked to provide the styling, invitations, ceremony & reception stationery and website design (as well as being the Chief Bridesmaid... naww!). With an international and local guest list, we decided...

Inspired by the quote "Love is sweet when it's NEW, but it's sweeter when it's TRUE'. Spoil your true love with chocolates & a card this Valentine's Day. The Stand Tall Design Valentine's stationery range is available in my online shop, at the moment, it consists of chocolate wrappers in two kinds and a card. I use the Lindt 35g chocolate bars, the ones found in the supermarket or 7-11, to wrap but you can also use KitKats - Yummo! (now to see if I can control myself and not eat them before I give them ... I'll tell you now, the odds aren't lookin' good). Happy Valentine's Day everyone! ... go shopping now!

As it gets closer to Christmas this year I'm starting to catch the joy radiating from my children, which is just wonderful because it's taken me til now to really "get into it" ... We've had family flying down too which I think helps get you in the festive mood. Now, I don't know about you, but I am terrible when it comes to choosing Christmas tags or cards...
