When my project was complete, I was very happy with the final outcome at a digital view. The colors looked vibrant, everything seemed to line up straight, and I found a way to make all three pieces match and bring the whole company together. However, once I printed the final pieces, I noticed my pictures printed blurry, my brochure didn't line up correctly to fold in the proper way, and the business card ended up being too big. I ended up changing my logo last minute, which I ended up being really happy about. Overall this project ended very well and I was impressed with how well I did not knowing how to use InDesign before.

Brochure Sketch
For the brochure, I decided I wanted to match a light green color scheme on each of the layers. Also, I wanted to incorporate the logo, whether it be the whole logo, just the turtle, or just the text on each page. I feel like this will bring the whole brochure together. I also realized I need to add more detail about my business, so I added a "custom nest" aspect to the business where we customize wine glasses for the perfect gift. The brochure will go into detail with that, also showing images of the apparel we sell and information on the store itself.

Lyrical Collage
Deciding what setting I wanted to start with for this project was very easy for me. When I was trying to think of a song lyric to create an image around, the Disney theme song "when you wish upon a star" came to mind instantly. Once I had decided what I was going to be working with, I began writing down ideas of different images and characters I wanted to be in the picture. I began with Mickey and Minnie, following the Princesses. These were easy choices for me, and adding some shadow made their placement very realistic. The lyric's were next adding some 3d effects and the wave-like flow of the text to make it feel like a lyric. The star I replaced a few times with different images, and decided to create a brush from a star image off of online. I added the streaks from the star to give it more of a shooting star look. I had a lot of fun working on this project and being creative with what I have learned this far.
