Over break I was semi productive and managed to create the first version of my mini portfolio, which I sent out to Meredith and Martha Stewart Living. I think what took me the longest was just the production of it all. I used a cardstock for the inside pages, which I folded over, whole punched and secured with a ribbon at the top. For my next versions, I think I'll use the cardstock for the cover and then a thinner, maybe glossier paper on the inside.
For the design, I chose a palette of blue and green with a punch of bright pink. On the inside pages, I kept the simple design of the dashed line to carry the design through. I really tried to be simple in my page designs so that I showcased the design pieces first. I'm pretty happy about they way it turned out. I'm even thinking about changing my website to have the same look so that I have a cohesive portfolio package...what do you all think?
