Brochure - Self Portrait

As a whole I struggled a lot with the design of my brochure. I had so many ideas but did
not know how to execute them. Even though I had no idea what I wanted to do I tried my best to
create a brochure that looked visually appealing and organized. My overall aim for my brochure
was to make it feel like a scrapbook or like a journal especially with the little illustrations. I
wanted the illustrations to be like stickers. When choosing the colors for my brochure I just
chose my favorite colors which also happen to also be colors related to valentines day. I wanted
everything to be harmonious in the sense that all the illustrations were sticker-like, all the texts
had the same color and border around them, and the same fonts for the headers and body
texts. I tried my best to make everything consistent all throughout the layout. My biggest
obstacles were trying to scale down my illustrations without losing the details and making my
text fit in the boxes proportionally. For both of my problems I just took the time to play around
with them until I thought they somewhat looked right to me.
