This class inspired me to completely revamp a newsletter I received from Stanley. Honestly, their original email felt a bit meh—it lacked excitement and depth. I wanted to inject some personality and make it not only more engaging but also more informative.

To maximize its potential, I added additional products to the design, creating more opportunities for sales and a richer shopping experience. After exploring various options, I found the Lemme template to be the perfect starting point for Stanley’s vibe. I customized it extensively to align with their branding. While I couldn’t locate an official Brand Guide, I pulled colors and inspiration from their social media and the featured drop to create something cohesive and festive.

I’m thrilled with how it turned out, and I owe that to this class! It truly pushed me to level up my design skills and create something that feels fun, functional, and so on-brand.
