Ahhh - so my attempt at marketing paid off Natasha! This is not my best work by a long shot - but if it sends people to my blog and website, then it's done its job. Don't worry - you're not the only one who has 'lost' an hour, or two, or even three when I follow through some of these entries to websites and blogs. That's one of the best parts of belonging to this community - getting to see what everyone else is doing - and because everyone is so willing to share, it's not like we're 'stalking' them! My website design was a combination of elements from lots of website I came across and liked, and my favourite thing to do ever (apart from sourcing amazing images for my work) is spend time looking at the work of other designers. It's interesting how much of what comes out in my designs is something I've seen and not necessarily 'copied' straight away, but stored away in my memory waiting for the right time to use the idea in one of my designs.
Anyway, thanks for the hour of your time!
