  • Cardinal sin…I’m drawing a blank.

    Posted by David Rogers on September 21, 2010 at 12:02 pm

    Customer came in a few days ago with a dark green LWB sprinter type van.

    Business name myg joinery (lower case and plain font) and usual phone number & short list of what he does.

    Likes ‘oak effect’ and wants it incorporated into the design somehow. Possibly with a carved oak round logo type thingy (wonders of eye-candy).

    I’ve imported his van…typed his name…and…squat, can’t think of a thing…

    It’s just too much of a blank canvas and my brain will not engage. Budget isn’t all that limited – but won’t stretch to wrapping…but will get digi-print if needs be.

    Helps!!

    I made this quilt square out of wood grain for a business card idea but the people didn’t use it.
    You are welcome to have it as a Corel Draw file if you want it.
    It was a real pain in the tush too.
    Love….Jill

    Jill,
    that looks like one of those jobs which were more a labour of love -for the sake of being able to make it- than getting paid for the amount of time that goes into them!

    i like it!

    Dave, i pm’d you,

    How about putting the name in a joinery type box
    IE toolbox and then substituting some of the letters for tools IE the T could be a claw hammer the I could be a Screwdriver etc
    Just an Idea
