David - I love the simplicity of your business card design. The heavy color on one side is nicely complimented with the white space on the other side. Nicely done!

Hi David,

Where do you get your business cards printed?

Hi Gaz,

Yes, spot colours were used in this project. You shouldn’t expect any issues when blending two Pantone colours. If you’re ever unsure about ink before a job is sent to press, be sure to ask your printer.

Hi there, Great job on that. I haven’t really had the time to read through all of this, but was wondering, is that 2 Pantone colours you have blended there to create that effect on the Bus Card? Ive seen it on one of your other designs and it looks very good. Could there be any complications of blending 2 Pantone colours?

Amanda, Karl,

Both of you are right.

Those sketches I show were purposely chosen as the neat ones. My thumbnails appear on anything from bus tickets to pieces of tissue, depending on where I am. I find the need to record my logo thoughts almost immediately, so I remember, but it makes sense to keep my portfolio entries tidy. :)

Ha ha, thats what I think …we’ll have to wait to hear what he says ;)

It must be quite a bit of work re-doing the showing the sketches in neat format that can be understood, and then showing all the drafts as well.

I’ve thought about doing it (showing ideas and drafts) myself on my blog, but the workload is putting me off - saying that it’s not that quick to write an article type blog either is it.

Amanda, I’d say it’s definitely the latter. The sketches look a little too well planned to be first drafts ;-)
