The Perks Of Designing A Magnet

I know my crafting blogs here are pretty much all knitting projects, but I've not done much else in terms of crafting recently.

I thought I would give you all a different update today.

I am aware that I have shared the magnets in one of my crafting blogs before, alongside some other of my design products, but I haven't actually shared the original designs here, nor have I made a post just for them.

So here is the post!

I read The Perks Of Being A Wallflower quite a long time ago, and this quote stood out to me.

It is a quote that I still absolutely love, even now. It's beautiful, relatable, and it still impacts me to this day.

This was the first design I made using a book quote. I added the text first and then created the design element. The last aspect was to add the background.

I went through a variety of backgrounds to find the one that looked the best. However I fell in love with these two backgrounds and I couldn't pick between the two of them, so I kept both the designs.

While the design is relatively simple, it worked as it gave me the option to have a slightly bolder background. It also makes the quotes (the whole point of the designs) to stand out.

These were the first designs I experimented with turning into products, before I got any of the bookmarks prepared and printed.

I wanted something quite simple as a sample for how designs come out, how well they looked and how the printing was.

I couldn't have been happier with these - the colours look so vibrant, the quality is incredible, and overall I am blown away by how good these look.

Which is your favourite - the pink design or the blue design?
