CRC Bid Whist Party Invitation

This is a goofy layout for an after-hours party for my friends at Chicago Recording Company - CRC. I love this sort of stuff. Design that makes you chuckle.

Letters from Lorraine Book Design

These are from a book I made for my family. It's a collection of personal letters from my Grandmother. Originally, I printed it on a laser printer at work, but then re-formatted it fit into one of the Blurb book templates.
The photos were scanned from family archives. I laid out the book using Illustrator.

Shedd Aquarium BLU invitation design

I designed an invitation for the Shedd Aquarium's annual BLU fundraiser event.
The challenge was to use photos of the aquarium and animals, but not place any type over those elements. The font used is Gotham. There is a varnish over selective areas of the design to make specific areas "pop" and to enhance the splashy bubble motif.
