Carly Gelsinger / Blog

Posted on: February 19th, 2014 by Hannah Beasley No Comments

I LOVED this project from start to finish – Carly was truly fun to work with, and we had a great time working out ideas and filling out her site (with the exception of a few minor technical bumps!). She loves neutral tones just like I do (and especially greens) so we ended up using muted green, gray, and dusty purple as her main colors. I hand lettered her header using a Zig clean color brush (as I continue learning I’m finding I prefer a regular brush and ink over a brush marker…however the Zig brush really is a great tool), and we added some watercolor greenery to make everything pop. ;)

Be sure to check out her site here!

Happy Valentine’s Day

Posted on: February 14th, 2014 by Hannah Beasley 1 Comment

The quote – “My heart is, and always will be, yours.” is from the movie version of Sense and Sensibility, one of my very favorite movies, and one of my very favorite books. (It’s the Emma Thompson version, to be exact. ;) ) It’s the sweetest story that is both tragic and beautiful, and *spoiler!* has a very happy ending. So if you haven’t read/seen it, you should! =)

Happy Valentine’s Day!

I love how simple this top left logo is, and yet how solid it really is. It’s amazing how just one or two well placed and thought out elements can make a very memorable design/logo/etc. Simplicity is powerful.

So last week I posted this wallpaper that I hand lettered…it was just a spur-of-the-moment thing, as I’ve been trying to work on my lettering and do better. Well, out of curiosity I searched for it by image on Google a few days later, and found that it had been shared on Facebook by The Christian Post, and had almost 3,000 likes! That is DEFINITELY a first for me! It was SO cool to see something I created being shared across not only Facebook, but Tumblr and Pinterest too. It’s very validating. =) And it made me very happy!

The Devoted Word / Blog Design

When Steve contacted me and said he wanted to completely revamp his site, I was definitely excited, because all the things he mentioned wanting to have in a design were things that are right up my alley. He wanted to keep everything simple, to use a really nice muted green as the primary color, and to keep the focus on the content. I really enjoyed coming up with different concepts, and the one we finally settled on just happened to be my favorite as well! You gotta love it when that happens!

I love love love these top images. Well, I actually love all of them. Why is it that all things knit, coffee, hand lettering, and black never ever ever get old? (at least to me that is. ;) )

I’m still working on finishing my website…I have a very bad habit of being the world’s most indecisive procrastinator whenever I work on a project for myself. Seriously, I started really working on my site in November and here it is, February already. Well, maybe it’ll be done one of these days. ;) I’m spending a lot of time on the portfolio…I feel like that’s the biggest area that I’ve needed to develop. It’s taking forever but I am enjoying the process – and looking forward to finally making it public!
