My new identity



I've been working with pocketstudio on etsy for my logo design, and couldn't be happier! It was a tough decision, I got so many fabulous bids and preliminary sketches... but pocketstudio really captured what I was looking for right from the start.

Every idea translated perfectly from my mind to the design in every step, Sarah really understood what I wanted.

Check this out!
Doesn't he look familiar? It's Cedric the centipede of course.
I have spent a LONG time thinking about getting a logo. Everything about my shop and business cards has been scattered, without a theme to pull them together. For so long, though, I simply couldn't come up with a design that would work to represent my business. Then one day it hit me - bugs crawling on a sewing machine. But what bug? Cedric, being my mascot for craft fairs, was the perfect fit. I feel like the logo I have now can tell you a lot about what I do in one image. The business cards and banner also include my "custom crafted creatures" tagline.

I got a new avy and banner for my etsy shop, as well as business cards and return address stickers. I already went out and bought some business cards and address labels... so exciting!

So thanks again to pocketstudio, if any of you have design needs or simply want some adorable cards, please check out their shop!

Hello. My wife and I bought our house about 6 months ago. It was a foreclosure and we were able to get a great deal on it. We also took advantage of the 8K tax credit so that definitely helped. We did an extensive remodeling job and now I want to refinance to cut the term to a 20 or 15 year loan. Does anyone know any good sites for mortgage information? Thanks!
