My Neighbor Totoro Baby Shower Invite

Here’s something I did last year for some friends of mine; they needed an invitation made up for a baby shower and wanted something a little different, so they asked if I could do something with Totoro and pals from the (fantastic) Studio Ghibli movie My Neighbor Totoro. This was a lot of fun to do, even though it was fairly simple, and apparently Travis & Jessica were very happy with it too!

(I actually finally got to meet their kid a few weeks back, and she is just adorable!)

Front book cover design for PR 4.0, a guide to utilizing social media to help optimize business publicity, by Edrea Davis. Currently scheduled for release in September 2011.

The links of the chain were intended to represent social connectivity and interaction, while the focal blue link conveys the notion of still standing out in the crowd.
I also chose to use the visual of a chain to communicate this, as it symbolizes both strength and reliability, as well as being evocative of hyperlinks used on the web.

Client feedback:

I recently finished working on a branding project to create an identity for Life:Salve Homeopathy.

I was asked to design the logo, letterhead, double-sided business card, A5 promotional flyer, and 6 page double-sided practice leaflet.
