A post about trying to work smarter.
I’ve put a lot of time into designs and illustrations that have been underused or superseded over the years, and it seems like a waste to hide them away.
This design was the banner image for my first blog until I changed the name, making it redundant; but I wanted a better banner for my Zazzle PatternPie store, so I repurposed this one by making the swirls and objects a pie filling.
The original swirls were replaced by the robin header banner on this page. A Zazzle Profile page also needs a banner, so a slightly taller version of the robin on his branch now doubles up as my profile banner, tying the two sites together.
Lastly, here’s a bookmark I designed for a friend but hadn’t prepared for sale until now. It features the common PQRST study system (pronouncing PQRST “peekwurst” like bratwurst made me think of sausages, guess I was hungry that day).
Bookmarks are similar in dimensions to banners. So by upping the resolution I’ve also made my two banners into bookmarks. All three designs are now available as bookmarks, with two on an 8” x 4” card to be cut out by the buyer (Zazzle doesn’t have a simple bookmark template at the time of writing). Here they are:
I’ve added captions to the reverse which I hope links the images together nicely with the subject of reading; but as usual you can use “Personalize this template” on the product pages if you want to tweak the text with your own ideas.
