FREE HALLOWEEN MONSTER GOODIES

(and some baddies!)

Here are some fun goodies from my Monster Mixer range of spooky creatures.

I've just launched a range of Halloween cards, trick-or-treat bags and more over on my Zazzle shop. To accompany those you can also download your very own Grumblesnout mask to scare up your neighbours when you're out trick-or-treating. And if you're having a party you might like to print out this fun to colour in Monster Mixer picture.

WHAT COLOUR WILL YOU CHOOSE FOR YOUR WEDDING?

As a designer I'm often intrigued why some people are drawn to a particular colour. In business it makes good sense to research your colour choices with care.

But what about your wedding day?

Every so often I'm commissioned to design a set of wedding stationery and by this stage the colours have nearly always been chosen and agreed upon. This gives me a little less work to do as I don't have to experiment with various colourways. 

It got me thinking about what a colour choice might say about you on this most important (and expensive) of days of your life.

So here's the first of two posts with handy info-graphics to download and keep. You never know, it may help you make that big decision about what colour the cup cake icing needs to be.

The second half of this post with a further six colours will follow in a few weeks. Hopefully, if your choice isn't here, I won't keep you wondering too long !!!
