Feetandtea present












I decided I wanted to give my feetandtea label a little present from me........................
I had been trying out some logos for my handmade cards that
I am making for STAG pop up shop and made a few collages literally adding some feet and a few cups of tea here and there.
I always find that when it comes to designing for myself I
don't try as hard as I would if I was designing
a piece for a friend or a competition.
I always want to impress other people with my work
and products but have different standards when it comes to myself.

Its given me alot to think about now that I am about to enter into my last year at Grays:

Will I challenge myself more if I am not just doing 
a personal project and doing briefs for companies and competitions? 

Here are a few little presents to feetandtea label that i might use on my products in the future.
Would love to know what is your favourite!

The Wedding







Selection of my favourite pieces of work I completed for this album. They have all been done with gesso and ink with found scraps.  My real favourites are the first and last images which look great in the album aswell.  I might even do something with them in the summer like put them onto bags or vests.
