Well, all the guest designers inspire me, as well as all of our team members and all of the guests of our blog.
However, when coming up with this prompt, I thought back to this lovely girl who resides over in the UK. I remember first catching some of her stuff on Flicker, lots of wonderful photography and a collection of unique layouts and journal pages. A style that stands apart from alot of others.
So, I became an admirer of her work, checking out her blog here and there, seeing what she was coming up with.
Down the line I noticed she started selling her own lettering and paper designs over on ETSY, definitely one of a kind and brilliant.
I only felt it perfect to ask her to be our 4Th guest designer on The Creative Type and was over joyed when she said yes. I knew that she would present us with some inspiring and fantastic takes on this prompt.
I present to you, the loverly................ Kimberley Smith(be sure to go and take a look around her blog).
"Allo! I am a big fan of imperfections. I love the quirky bits that life has to offer- it keeps things interesting!That’s one of the main reasons why I adore typography, there is just so much you can say.So- I was excited to be picked for this challenge!! I use cut-outs, A LOT!There is something really satisfying and therapeutic about cutting out letters.They have so much character, those cute little letters!"
*A variation of quotes Kim writes down to keep. The lettering is made with the cover of a Vogue magazine.
