Again, here I am uploading 3 bookmarks. You may notice though that they all use the same color palette and yet portray totally different feels and purposes. When a client gives you a color palette to work within, remember that, that only gives you a guideline. You can take the same colors and make drastically different pieces. Happy Designing!
Smashing Magazine issued a challenge to designers for the new year, and I’m on board! I tried to decide what type of design I’d want to do and could stretch my boundaries as a designer. So in answer to this Challenge, I will be designing and posting a new Bookmark design each day on this blog. The Designs will link to a downloadable file that you can feel free to download, print out and share as desired.

Today’s bookmark is inspired by the many cracks and potholes present in the Tulsa roads after a series of winter storms and sheets of ice.

While I don’t want to give up the “Design Everyday” challenge, I must admit it’s getting even more challenging for me to keep up. This weekend alone I received more than a dozen new projects for my firms to undertake. In short the design business is good.
In other news, here are the last 3 bookmarks that I’ve missed. The mustache bookmarks were SO much fun to create. I used a mustache brush that is available at www.BrushEezy.com. No design aresenal is complete without a mustache brush. Seriously. =P
I will be continuing with the bookmarks. As I mentioned though, I also am happy to provide a download link for anyone interested, I just don’t always take the time to upload the PDFs. Just drop me a line regarding which design you’d like.

We’ve talked about how great a well designed bookmark can be for author promotion in the past, but tonight I wanted to share a recent bookmark I have designed for a client. Enjoy! You can visit his site here.

Cut. When creativity fails, I turn to the custom shapes in Photoshop. Sounds lame, but I’ve been pretty pleased with the results.

Never underestimate the power of lines. That’s my deep meaning behind tonight’s bookmark. After my trip last week and this week’s major seminar I’m a bit behind on the download links. If there is one you’d like specifically to download in the meantime email me at jp@insearchofdesign.com

After an insanely busy week this week, I was unable to get the bookmark’s posted for the last 2 days. So here they are along with todays! Enjoy!
