Darlings and Daisies



Yesterday all the steps were confirmed and I am happy to announce that I have been lucky enough to get an internship with Hallmark cards. I am so excited to learn the inner workings of the design industry and see the pacing of projects which I think will be completely different to the pacing at Uni. I late last year had an assignment where we had to make a series of Christmas cards in an Australian/New Zealand theme which Hallmark chose 3 designs, one being mine. I then found out earlier this year that I had also been the student chosen for the internship that they were offering. These little things as a beginning designer gives you such a boost of confidence as only really your teachers and family see your work, so for someone outside of that to like my work is a great feeling.

As promised here is a little give away for all you lovely people who have taken time to look at my blog. It has been very exciting as I see the end of the year draws nearer and finally school/study will be over and I can take the next big step into the real world as most of my friends now are already there. But then the daunting task of finding a job begins, so I think that why I started this blog, to start taking those little steps as a young designer in to this big, scary world. So I wanted to give something back, for the confidence you have given me with your support.

So how it will work, I have two of these little prints to give away so if you type your name below before Sunday and on Sunday morning I will collect all the names and put them into a hat and pull two out. If you check back to this post Sunday afternoon I will update it with the two winners. Good Luck!!

--------UPDATE---------
Congratulation Chrissy and Jacaranda your names were pulled out of the hat, so please contact me on my email celeste.corrinne@gmail.com so I can get your addresses to post these off to you. THankyou to all the people who put their names below and all your lovely messages.
