I love playing with my graphics creation and manipulationm programs. They are the simplest ways for me to express my creativity.
For the 2008/2009 Holiday season, I created these set of graphics
"Happy Birthday Jesus" is my favourite phrase of the holiday season. I decided to incorporate it into this "glass ball ornament" image. I love it and wish that I could have a real one just like it! Maybe one year I'll create that.
I love red! Yes, I know that you could not tell that from my site's colour scheme. But red is my fave. So I created this graphic in my favorite colour to express my sincerest wish to all my viewers. Unfortunately, the colour was way intense for the mellow blue that the site is dressed in.
So instead I created a graphic that fit right into the colour scheme. Sticking with my colour scheme meant I could easily incorporate my logo into the graphic. I thought about using the same font that I use for my name, but decided I liked this font that I saw on a printed Christmas card I got at Wal-Mart. (I can find inspiration anywhere!)
Finally, to begin the new year right, I created this graphic. It was *very* cold the day I made it, and I wanted it to reflect that feeling of snowy cold and white beauty.
Again, I incorporated my logo into the graphic. Incorporating the logo helps extend my "brand". You should try to use your logo in all of your marketing materials.
I hope you enjoyed this small show case of things I have created. I can help you make similar graphics for your site to help extend your brand or boost your marketing efforts!
Take care
Chere
