Lettering for Package Design: From Sketch to Label

Hi Khara! Greetings from a fellow Tennessean! :) This is a great mood board. Perfect imagery for the rustic-lux vibe you mentioned. I love the idea of using ornamentation with big strong lettering with that evident handmade feel. Stamping the logo on bags would be a great final touch. I'm particularly drawn to the look of the first and last image on your board. Can't wait to see your sketches!

who did that hunter chocolate? that is cool!

It's a French artist: <a class="url" href="http://www.behance.net/bmddesign" rel="external nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.behance.net/bmddesign</a>.

Thanks, that site has alot of inspiration!..I followed the link from here to your facebook and site too...your work art is awesome, I loved that primitive southern art and orange colors of your work! I'd like to decorate my whole house with it!

I want to develop a label for shopping bags for a small art gallery and design studio that I manage with my mom. I am aiming for an rustic-lux feel to my labels to complement the industrial elements we have in our space.<img class="zoomable rounded-image-wrapper" src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/f91348dc" alt="NJWGDS Retail Bags - image 1 - student project" srcset="http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/f91348dc 600w, http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/f91348dc 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 600px, 100vw" loading="lazy"><img class="zoomable rounded-image-wrapper" src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/0ac7296e" alt="NJWGDS Retail Bags - image 2 - student project" srcset="http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/0ac7296e 600w, http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/0ac7296e 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 600px, 100vw" loading="lazy"><img class="zoomable rounded-image-wrapper" src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/41bdd31b" alt="NJWGDS Retail Bags - image 3 - student project" srcset="http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/41bdd31b 600w, http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/41bdd31b 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 600px, 100vw" loading="lazy"><img class="zoomable rounded-image-wrapper" src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/252b0292" alt="NJWGDS Retail Bags - image 4 - student project" srcset="http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/252b0292 600w, http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/252b0292 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 600px, 100vw" loading="lazy"><img class="zoomable rounded-image-wrapper" src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/7323343b" alt="NJWGDS Retail Bags - image 5 - student project" srcset="http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/7323343b 600w, http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/7323343b 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 600px, 100vw" loading="lazy">More for my mood board<img class="zoomable rounded-image-wrapper" src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/285c8a76" alt="NJWGDS Retail Bags - image 6 - student project" srcset="http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/285c8a76 600w, http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/285c8a76 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 600px, 100vw" loading="lazy"><img class="zoomable rounded-image-wrapper" src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/b722c1da" alt="NJWGDS Retail Bags - image 7 - student project" srcset="http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/b722c1da 600w, http://s3.amazonaws.com/skillshare/uploads/project/b9c362d65de2eaf7b7d9c698f871631d/b722c1da 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 600px, 100vw" loading="lazy">
