We finally wrapped up our brand project in Packaging Design and took some professional photos of all the finished products! Take a look at the wine bottle, cocoa powder box, and coffee beans bag Mike and I each made:

(mine)

My brand was called TruTaste



Mike's brand was called FUEL

Be sure to let us know who's you like better! ;)

So tonight in our Packaging Design class we made 3D versions of our cocoa powder boxes! It was honestly so cool, because most times we always just create digital copies and never actually get to see them all mocked up. It was really fun getting to cut them out and assemble them tonight!



Mike's company is called "Fuel", while mine is called "TruTaste".



In addition, I found some time in class to finalize the design for my dad's new company: Blue Ghost Consultants! (I am helping my dad and his partner with their business by building their company website!) He absolutely loved the logo, and I too am super pleased with how it turned out. :)

Happy Valentine's Day!! ❤️ / Happy Ash Wednesday!! ✝️

“Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time.”
—1 Peter‬ ‭5:6

Boy am I feeling so incredibly humbled today! I am actually very glad Ash Wednesday fell on Valentine’s Day this year, because I am just full of so much love for our God and the amazing gift of life He so graciously bestowed upon us! We are all so so blessed to be given this beautiful world to live in—a world full of His truly amazing creations. He has given us life AND then He died for our sins on the cross!! How humbling to think that we are all walking miracles. The idea of life is so astonishing. Our days are limited on this Earth and we must not take any moment for granted—we should strive to spend every moment displaying Him in all we do. I felt overwhelmed with emotion tonight in church as we reflected on such thoughts. I found myself clutching my darling’s hands beside me several times, just so overcome with endearment and gratitude. God is good—God is SO good! ✝️🌿💖

Thursday night (dinosaur) drawing session! :)

Here are the finished products!

I drew a Brachiosaurus, which is my favorite dinosaur. :) I used colored pencils and I'm a bit rusty, so the shading is pretty lousy. Nonetheless! It was fun to do and good practice.

Michael drew a Stegosaurus! He used just plain pencil and this was his first time ever attempting to draw a dino! And I think he did pretty great, if I do say so myself. ;)

Took advantage of this beautiful day and made some beautiful chalk murals! Obviously the Subaru logo was my idea and the Tangled sun was Mike's. ;)

Tonight I helped Mike paint the water bottle exhibit he made out of foamboard! And he definitely deserves so much praise and credit, because just look at the fantastic job he did! I just know he’s going to get an A!! ☺️
