Hi Lindsay! I just completed the Affinity Designer part of this course and would like to share my work with the rest of the class.

1. Logo Design

I prepared the three variations of the logo. I really loved the drop shadow effect and creating gradients on the popsicles. The challenging part was using the pen tool and putting effects on the type.

2. Type Only Poster

I really loved putting texture and shadow effect on this project. I was challenged with aligning the text and weaving the line across the text.

3. Business Card

Like in the previous projects, I was challenged with fixing the layout of the type.

4. Tri-fold Brochure

I used the color palette from the template you provided but the colors looked different from your videos, and so I adjusted a little bit and ended up loving my color choices. The challenge for me was selecting the photos and cropping them accordingly. I spent quite a longer time in this project because a lot of elements needed adjustments but did enjoy the entire process.

5. Spaceship Pixel Persona

This is the most challenging project so far in this course. I'm not sure if the supposedly stars looked like stars. Anyway, there were a lot of brushes and layers going on which was quite confusing, but I really enjoyed doing this project. I know I'll have to try this one again and create a better product.

I'd love to hear your feedback on my work. Excited to proceed with Affinity Publisher!
