Student Leadership Shirt Design

This is the stuff I'd been using to promote Student Leadership.
The student minister asked for a student leadership shirt for his kids. I had been using an optical flare and some shiny metallic text to promote it and he said that's the look he wanted for the shirt, but I didn't believe it would translate well - besides it would cost a pretty penny.

Here's the whole shirt design
After a few shots in the dark and showing him several samples of shirt designs I found online, he said he liked the idea of words building words and gave me a concept to run with.

Once I got into the thick of things, I realized that I am not good at fitting words within a letter shaped container. The sample I was studying looked so much nicer and oh, so much more refined than mine ended up looking like - that's probably because that designer started with only five letter shapes to fill with synonyms. Anyway, I did finally come to a point where I decided the artwork was "done," but it was painful to send that proof off because what I wanted to do was start over from scratch. I learened a lot about the process but just didn't have any more time I could spend on that one project.

What do you think about my final? Did I really ruin it?

"Follow Me as I Follow Christ" - boy, does that need work!

Freelance Design: Selena Sews

Proofs with the two I liked most at the top... This is the one she chose - definitely my favorite - although she chose the one with the sewing machine for a larger sign she was going to do cut vinyl for. I'm looking forward to seeing these in action. A talented friend asked me to help her with some designs for craft bag tags. If you're interested in seeing some of her side-hustle goods, check out her facebook page .

Just do something!

I'm so tired of hearing about how politicians need to "compromise" and do what that particular politician wants them to do. I'm tired of those same politicians saying that there needs to be tolerance when they're the most intolerant people in the universe. This debt problem that our government has is a ridiculous problem. Anyone in his or her right mind wouldn't purposely spend more than they took in OR pay $1400 for a hammer that cost $8.50 at the hardware store OR award billions of dollars (they'd have to borrow from a foreign country) to someone to study the effects of methane on ants or some other foolish thing. If I could speak with the leaders in congress and the house right now, and knew that what I said would make a dent in their stiff-necked stances, I'd let them know in no uncertain terms that they were all fired and that we're starting over. Pay off the debt we have so we won't be in such a bind, get rid of welfare (cause since t...
