Dream Shards Logo

It's all slowly coming together. My cousin has graciously offered her graphic design skills to help me vector (I think that's the word) my logo image and help choose a local color instead of CYMK printer color for my Dream Shards business cards. This way, I won't have to pay out the wazoo for them! In the meantime, I am to work on the full image - so that I can use it later (possibly on a future website or banner).

*Note - draw lightly when using tracing paper. It does not erase easily!




For the burst I used gouache - as you will see, I didn't thin down the glue I used enough with water for it to shine through the tracing paper.



White water color is what I decided for outlining/highlighting the crystal. Gouache was to harsh-looking and colored pencil would have been too light to be seen. As you can see - the burst didn't show through very well.



For the beginnings of the title of my business! I have put it to a vote on Facebook as to which of the six styles my friends like best. Hopefully that will help in which one I chose (though it is ultimately my decision). It all starts to look the same after a while.
