Sharing a little sneak peek at a very, very special new visual brand in the works... for my hubby's business! ๐Ÿค— โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € Last fall, Josh went out on his own as a web developer and he's absolutely rocking it. It's been one of those situations where he's been so busy with client work and making his ideas come to life (including a super sweet app...!!) that he hasn't had a lot of time to devote to his own business marketing. Great problem to have, huh? ๐Ÿ˜‰ โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € We started developing his visual brand over the holidays and are (finally) wrapping things up -- it's been really fun and rewarding to see his vision come to life. Our goal was to create styling that is bold, clean, modern, and approachable, and that represents his passion for bending, molding, and shaping the web to fulfill the needs of his clients and customers. He strives to develop simple, intuitive solutions to complex and dynamic problems... to make the web easier to navigate and more versatile. I love how he empowers his clients and thinks of the little (and big) things while developing, that in the end make the task of managing a website less daunting ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿผ โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € With this visual brand, he now has the visual tools he needs to create a website for himself (he says he'll let me lend a design hand, too ๐Ÿค—) and start to truly get established with an online hub. So so so so excited for him โค๏ธ โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € Scroll through to see some of his key branded logos and marks! You won't see Josh on social media, but I'll be updating you guys once his awesome site is live. In the meantime, if you're looking for a fully custom site design and/or ecommerce shop, shoot me a message and I'll get you connected!
So, a couple weeks ago, I did a thing... โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € I opened a brand new โœจTEMPLATE SHOPโœจ on my website! โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € Remember me mentioning the beautiful templates available to students inside my Design Spirit course? Social media graphics, business cards, pricing sheets, workbook and client questionnaire templates... and all easy to use and customize to your specific business. Well, after seeing how helpful they've been for my students and receiving many requests to make them available to everyone, I've officially opened a Template Shop with all the goods inside (!!) โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰ โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € Right now inside the shop, you can snag: โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โœจ Design Clarity: Style Guide Workshop + Style Guide Template -- a two-hour on-demand workshop that helps you get organized and create a solid style guide for yourself โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โœจ Workbook Design Template -- perfect for mixing and matching pages to create different electronic PDFs for your business (think welcome guides, client questionnaires, and workbooks!). **the most popular template so far!** โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โœจ Design Template Bundle -- a starter kit with four social media and print templates to help you with consistency in your marketing graphics โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ™ฅ๏ธโ™ฅ๏ธโ™ฅ๏ธ โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € Check out the shop at the link in my profile! I hope to add new templates as the year goes on. Soooo... have a special request?

Itโ€™s a busy week of client work and meetings and dance recitals! And I got to kick things off by having a lunch and working date with my hubby at one of my fave coffee spots in the Twin Cities... @cafeastoriasaintpaul โค๏ธ This is their rainbow latte and it is delicious and I am trying to savor it, enjoying every sip. The strawberry crepe I ordered? It was gone in, like, 3 minutes flat ๐Ÿ˜‚ How did you start off your week?
If you came over to my house on any given day, this is most likely what you'd find. Except I don't always look this "together." I'm sometimes on my couch like this, sometimes at my desk, or sometimes at my kitchen table, depending on my mood. And I'm also typically wearing sweatpants and a sweatshirt. No make-up. May or may not be showered ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿปโ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € But is my head down in the work? Am I giving myself grace and flexibility and space to find my creative flow? Am I dedicated to creating from a rested and inspired place, so I'm doing my best design work for my clients... *and* have energy to give to my hubby, my family, and myself at the end of the day?โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € Oh yeah ๐Ÿ’ช๐ŸผAt least that's always my goal. I'm not perfect and every day is different, but it's all rooted in grace ๐Ÿ™๐ŸผFor example, I had to work a little later last night because some client design work took longer than anticipated... BUT I did allow myself to sleep in yesterday, so working late didn't feel as exhausting. And this morning, I allowed myself a slow start, too. This is very different from my former hustle mentality. It's all about progress, my friend. Progress ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผโ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € So, my question for you today... how are you working while staying in alignment with your values? Would love to hear a little bit about your journey in the comments below. My road with this has certainly not been straight โค๏ธโ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € #alliemariedesign #theimperfectboss #branddesigner #thesweetlifeunscripted #makewaves #inspiredbythis #gritandvirtue #calledtocreate #bandofun #mycreativebiz #ohwowyes #fueledwithheart #abmlifeisbeautiful #abmlifeishappy #creativityfound #findyourflock #thegramgang #smallbusinesslove #herestothecreatives #wearethecreativeeconomy #createandcultivate #pursuewhatislovely #lifeofacreative #theeverygirl #creativeladydirectory #creativewomen #manifestyourlife #highvibetribe #igniteyourfire #twincitiescollective
I'm excited to reveal the new brand styling for my client @heypattineal! โœจPatti has a boutique learning + wellness company and is passionate about helping clients break the cycle of constant internal and external busyness in order to align their highest intentions with their daily actions. She says, "Itโ€™s not about the circumstances in your life, but about the way you relate to them. Because when you start choosing your mindset, you start changing your life." YES! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € Patti serves her clients through yoga, coaching, and mindfulness programs, and works with individuals, families, schools -and- organizations. So, when it came to her visual brand, it needed to be modern yet timeless and versatile --something that encompasses all that she brings to the table and truly represents the common denominator -- Patti herself! We set out to convey feelings of positivity, empowerment, beauty, presence, and of course wellness... all important values and concepts that Patti incorporates into her teachings โ™ฅ๏ธ โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € My favorite parts of this visual identity: โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € 1.) The delicate nature + organic curves in the foliage symbol -- love love love ๐ŸŒฟ 2.) The custom A in her first name -- it reminds me of both a mountain and water at the same time ๐Ÿ˜ 3.) The uplifting color palette -- it just puts me in a good mood looking at it ๐Ÿ˜Š โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € Scroll through to get a peek at all her logos, marks, colors, and even her font system. Patti went with my Petite Branding Package (my most basic package) -- love that she's all set up for success as she implements her new brand on her website (and beyond!) on her own ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿผ
There's something beautiful about a classic watermark and nice airy kerning. Loved collaborating with @austinandfowler on their brand refresh last fall -- the gorgeous simplicity and timelessness of their visual identity gives me all the feels (see the full beauty in my portfolio) โ™ฅ๏ธโ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € Check out their account and get ready to drool over their stylish bags + accessories! #ClientLoveโ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € P.S.

Back for another #MoodBoardMonday! With my current branding client, we're after a modern, whimsical and playfully unique vibe while reflecting the reliable and professional experience she gives her clients. So far, we're pretty much two peas in a pod with our attention to detail + commitment to getting every last detail just perfect ๐Ÿ™Œ๐ŸผExcited to be diving into logo concepts today!โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € Can you guess my client's business and passion?! ๐Ÿ˜‰โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € #moodboards #alliemariedesign #inspiredbythis #brandstylist #visualbranding #brandingdesign #makersandthinkers #seekthesimplicity #gritandvirtue #calledtocreate #bandofun #mycreativebiz #ohwowyes #elevatecultivate #fueledwithheart #abmlifeisbeautiful #abmlifeishappy #creativityfound #findyourflock #thegramgang #smallbusinesslove #herestothecreatives #wearethecreativeeconomy #makewaves #createandcultivate #pursuewhatislovely #DScolor #darlingdaily
Happy Friday! โ˜€๏ธ Instead of the typical #FridayIntroductions, here are three things that are true for me right at this very moment: โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € 1. I'm sitting at a coffee shop working this afternoon before my barre class, enjoying a really delicious panini that's reminding me of my time studying abroad in Paris during college. It's bringing me back and I'm a very, very happy camper ๐Ÿ˜ โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € 2. After an absolutely lovely time with @laura.anne.creative today, I'm committing myself to more time outdoors now that spring is finally here in MN. Trading coffee shop dates for fun walks around the lake like we did this morning (with coffee still in hand)? Yes, please. Anyone with me? ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿป โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € 3. These words from @yesandyesblog (I shared this on my stories last night, too): "Today, say yes to... THE PRESENT. It's rarely the actual event you're worried about, it's usually how the event will affect your future. But are things fine this second? Probably. So take a deep breath and be here now." ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € What's true for you right now, in this moment? โ™ฅ๏ธ โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € ๐Ÿ“ท by @littledotcreative, taken at the #BackIntoBalance Retreat earlier this year.
