CBA #1 Retailer's Choice Award



Last fall I designed a 24 SKU Mug line that recently won 2009 CBA (Christian Book Association & ICRS) Retailer's Choice Award in it's category. 

This line was a rush quick turn program on which I took on all 24 SKUs plus the gift bag and tags for each. I was given a three week time frame from  start and finish to complete designs for each of the 24 mugs plus packaging.

This program has exceeded sales reports over three times its' projection for 2009.

Six more mugs specifying Mom, Dad, Grandpa, Grandma, Cancer Survivor and Sister have been designed and are awaiting production. The six additional mugs should be replacing lowest selling mugs in 2010 from the 2009 line.

Home Decor

These two signs were designed last year and are for sale in CBA retailers and online.

Notepads


I designed these notepads for a mockup development. Then noticed later they had reached retail... that was a nice surprise. This is one of a few designs.

2009 Graduation Gifts


This items were to complement the items already in the graduation line. These were sold with the 2009 graduation products.



This is a boxed set of inspirational graduation cards.


Frame is resin, scripture engraved, stained cherry finish. "Faith" in flat metal ~ shine finish.


This DOB kit is perfect for the college student to keep bathroom accessories. "FAITH" is sewn applique with rough, rugged edges.

Inspirational Back to School Products


This was a fun project for the 2009 Back to School program. Check out your local CBA retailer (and WMT) for these great products. Notebooks, Binders, Folders, Pencil Pouches and More!

There are three different looks to this program. The "girl" theme pictured here is the line I designed. Also available is a masculine line and a smaller child doodle line.

Sound Gift Bags


I had the privilege to work on several new gift bags with sound ranging from baby to everyday birthday. Including songs such as Chicken Dance and Don't Worry Be Happy.
