New Banner and Logo

Banner

                

Logo

It’s a New Year!  I’m excited to introduce my new banner and tell you about the design and why I chose it.

Firstly, you have to meet the amazing woman who drew the background – by hand!  Amy Lambert’s artwork came to my attention when I saw her portfolio work on Facebook.  It’s rare to find an artist that captures EXACTLY what you have in your head.  Amy can be contacted via her Facbook Fan Page (Amy Labert Designs).

I designed the logo part myself.  It’s simple yet fun with a poignant feel.

Combined, you have a take on Motherhood: the beauty of a child – simple and fun, surrounded by the complexities that Motherhood can bring – which is anything but simple.  I love the paradox; that’s what I was working for. 

The background drawing is beautifully complex.  If you look carefully, you will see many things, including representations of faith, hope and love – but the greatest of these is love. (1 Corinthians 13:13)

Leave me some comments to let me know what you think.

The logo made me smile, it’s very bouncy and fun. I like it.

I think it might work better with the background if it was a little larger though, it gets a tiny bit lost amongst the background design (which is also pretty).
