Encrypted Invitation

Found on 'a delightful blog' .. this could be something fun and interesting to do for my invitations for the burlesque evening. The idea behind the invitations is that it is secretive, and this would be perfect..




Need to research this more, how it's done, and what's the trick behind it.. also, how can this be related to burlesque..

More Design Ideas

Typography Served:

Again looking at how type can be shown, using different material such as food.. Could be really interesting to see how Peter Rabbit can be translated in this way..

I really like the cut out paper design here.. and it is quite child like which relates to my children's book brief. Could be something else I look into..



Book Illustration Ideas

Square Inch Design:

I have found this blog that showed poster designs for children's stories which caught my eye.. i really like the simplicity, and they show the story in that image.. however, I wouldn't say there aimed at children, they wouldn't necessarily understand what the image meant, or see what it is.. though it is a really nice idea..




I found these letters there too.. which has given me an idea for my book illustration brief.. steering clear of Beatrix Potter illustrations, I could use type as an image somehow.. to get children learning to read and keep them interested..
