I'VE MOVED

Hello, this may be my last post on Blogger. 

This is because I've recently started up a 'Tumblr' site, and really rather like it.

You can find and 'follow' me here - http://www.natalierosesmith.tumblr.com/.

I also have a 'flavors' site too - www.flavors.me/natalierose



Ciao.

Creative BOOM !

Creative Boom is an online magazine-style journal or blog that aims to celebrate, inspire and support the creative industries throughout the UK and the rest of the world, including everything from music, design and fashion to film, photography and writing.

Regional hubs have been set up for across the country.  I'm the main contributor to the 'Cardiff Hub'.  Updating people on the latest creative, music, fashion etc events going on in the Capital, and also other parts of Wales.  So, if anyone has any news, or wants me to list them in the directory, send an email.



It's relatively new at the moment, but is constantly growing in popularity.  I feel this is what the creative industry needed, it's really interesting to see what is happening across the country.  I wish them the best of luck, it's going to be a hit :)

You can check out the Creative Boom website, listed under my 'Lovely sites'.

Hello.  I created a Simpson character of myself (to the left, incase you didn't know :p ).

LONDON.



I do love visiting the Capital. Don't get a chance very often, so always try to make the most of when I do. Having a browse along Oxford St, on a chilly November day. The Christmas lights were up too, a very lovely surprise. Hope to go back down there soon.

Advance


This is just a sample of some graphic work I've been doing. It's a flyer for 'Advance CPD', and what they used and handed out for the Legal Wales Conference 2009, held in Cardiff.

N & B Design

I've sort of gone into business with a good friend of mine, Beth Knight. Collectively, we're called
N & B Design (although we are trying to see if we can come up with another genius alternative name). Beth also graduated this year, gaining a degree in illustration.

We were invited to participate in a local Wedding Fayre, us providing the graphic design, wedding stationary side of things. Never to turn down a challenge, we accepted, as knew that opportunities like that don't come along very often.

So, in about 3-4 weeks, we'd come up with several designs for personalised wedding stationary, from invites, to order of service, from table names to thank you cards.
