A Trade....

I'm calling on the talents of my creative blog friends that can create magic with their computers! I'm looking to update my etsy shop banner. I'm wondering if anyone would be interested in helping me to create a new banner and perhaps a template for business cards.

I do not have photoshop so I can't do this myself. Important note, I can't pay cash money but, I'd be willing to trade the work for some items in my shop or a shop credit if you don't see anything you like (I am adding new stuff almost daily though).

I'd like to keep the pumpkin image I have if possible. I did take the photo and someone kindly lightend the background and added the font for me. But, now I'm looking for something a little more whimisical. Simple but, whimsical, a little darker, more magical.  It could be as simple as turning the photo to a sepia tone and adding some scrolling and a different font. I'm all up for creativity though and would love to see what can be produced with your own imaginations.

If we do decide to work together I do ask though that if you decided to use the photo please don't sell it. Feel free to use the created/updated image in a portfolio though.

If you think you'd be interested you can email me at joaneduranatgmaildotcom and I can send you the photo I originally took to work with and, we can work out details of what items and/or how much.

Thanks so much for considering this! My shop is at www.ivorypumpkin.etsy.com if you want to take a look.

Love,
Joane

September and Fairy Friday

September

Departing summer hath assumed
An aspect tenderly illumed,
The gentlest look of spring;
That calls from yonder leafy shade
Unfaded, yet prepared to fade,
A timely carolling.

-  William Wordsworth
