Sermon Title Slide: Sqashed Box = Possibilities

This week's sermon title slide was a lot of fun to put together. Pulled images from several places to make the box work and then I pulled images to create the environment for the box before working on the text and such. Will probably work on the text layout a bit more - am not fully satisfied with the font choice or layout just yet, but it's very close.

Started with this image and a title earlier this afternoon:

Just a squashed old box photo.

Ended with this:

Sermon Title Slide - Gift of Failure - JFleming 2015

This is the "almost" final rendering. Will be working a bit more on the text layout, but the background is pretty much done.

Was fun to find the box, choose a pattern for the wrapping paper, warp that paper to fit. Most difficult part was deciding on the color scheme. The most fun was making the bow fit and putting the shadows on there in a believable manner. Not really satisfied with how the box doesn't quite seem grounded on the wood, but it's not so obvious that I am overly concerned about the believability. Just wish I could pin point exactly what is "wrong" about it so I might could fix it next time.

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.

Writing: Lena - Chapter 2

So - thought I'd post the second chapter of Lena's story too. Let me know if you're enjoying it? Could possibly release the first installment of this 2 novella story before the end of May. With this story, I feel like I'm flopping around outside of my comfort zone and although it's uncomfortable, I'm assuming these are 'good' growing pains especially since the gospel is a bit more central than in the last story I put out there. .2. Picked Up Just before sunrise, clouds lumbered off to the northwest. I shivered in my damp clothing and stepped onto the glistening onyx ribbon of road to consider my options: one, follow it to civilization and risk running into Ted or his crew, or two, risk a slow death by turning from the road into the dehydrating desert. I couldn’t tell how far I was from where I had started, and didn’t want to risk meeting anyone along the road once the sun had fully risen, but before I had made a conscious choice, I heard the grave...
