EvilHairDay has kept busy recently, from normal purchases to a few custom card designs and even some custom tattoo and business logos. I know the value of a tasty cake, you better believe I do. As a little friendly gesture my friend Jen is letting everyone she can know about EHD and was in much need of a logo so I did a little specialised EHD design for her. Above you can see first how it started out and then her suggested colour changes. 

Just keeping you folks up to date with what’s going on, please check out her yummy site! 

I just got that feeling when you design something that would look better on a t shirt than a card, so I thought I would post it here.

Inspired by my dear Ilo and Milo, two cats who will be home later today feeling sorry for themselves after being spayed and neutered respectively.

Soon to be up on the wall of the ODEON (my working place) to promote the inclusion of posters that will soon be available at the website of all your favourite designs and many more. I am in talks with someone connected to a printer that hopefully can help with this.
Soon I hope to really push advertising, but for now I am building up a roster and looking for the best possible postcards to hand out… 

In an effort to brush up on the old animation skills (rusty after a good year from when I most likely used them last) I realised that apparently I am not as terrible as I thought I was. This was a fun little exercise, maybe this will see the light of day somewhere, sometime.

I have recently done some freelance work for my church and have had a fantastic time sitting down with the briefs. The first two images are for a new international student cafe, the first image a banner for the website and the latter for an A5 flyer. The third image is the original submitted design for the banner but it was decided the bean people didn’t really work.(same goes for the final image)

The middle image is for the teens ministry in Christchurch. Hermen is the character seen at the bottom of the image.

Keeping this busy is what I love, now to get onto a few design projects I have left behind.

Cards, cards, cards!

Ladies and Gentlemen, step right up. Lately work has kept me pretty busy but believe you me that does not stop me from flexing my creative muscles. The previewed images above show some of the one off and very original cards I have produced for friends for special occasions (weddings, anniversaries, thank you’s, birthdays). If you have need of a specific idea that I do not have that you would like me to create, just email requests@evilhairday.co.uk and I can get right on it for you.

I have been working on ways to promote knowledge of EHD. After watching the Empire Strikes Back this morning I thought I would use the iconic final scene. Not only because I love that film, but because I love it and I believe it catches the eye and hopefully when I hand it to someone they will laugh and turn it over.

After having installed the wonderful new printer I set about getting as much printed, scored and cut straight away. It has all been compiled and now sits inside some very funky custom printed EHD envelopes. Ready to be shown to someone who could potentially put them in their store.

Here is hoping, in the meantime, enjoy the above image to display what you could receive should you so wish to buy.

I recently purchased a new wireless printer for the benefits of EvilHairDay. My old printer was just that (old) and it’s printing efforts were poor to say the least. After testing the new printer and its incredibly crisp colour skills I have to say I am more than impressed.

I have decided to offer my promotional postcard (pictured above with the new printer too) as an option to buy on the website* but will also be offering it out on the streets as a little advertising stunt very very soon.

Keep your eyes peeled for more designs.
