This is the cover of my how to book. I printed the cover on vellum and then placed a piece of paper with a pattern on it under the sheet of vellum. I used ribbon to tie the book together. The blue lines on the cover and every page of the book mimic the ribbon.

These are two of the spreads for my how to book. The first page of the book is an introduction. Then there is one page for each of the five foot positions in ballet, and one page for each of the arm positions in ballet. The last page has lists some ballet terms. Each position and terms has an illustration demonstrating it. The pages with the foot positions also has "footprints" in the corner of the page for a better understanding of where the feet should go.

How to Book

My how to book will be about how to dance. It will focus on ballet. I will include the five basic foot positions, and the five basic arm positions. The first page will have an introduction and what one will need to do ballet. At the end of the book, there will be a page that will explain how to do a few basic ballet moves. The layout of the pages with the foot and arm positions will be similar to the layout at the left. There will be a description of how to do each and there will be a drawing. The colors I will use in the book are light pinks and blues.

This is the design that my team decided on for the stickers. We chose a circle shaped sticker because it mimics the curves of the graphic. The text with a white box is placed through the center of sticker to look like it is slicing the sticker.

Slice of Cake Stickers

These are the ideas that I came up with the stickers for the cake boxes. I used the graphic from the logo, and placed a white box around the text so the text would not get lost in the the graphic.

Slice of Cake Logo

For The Slice of Cake identity my team wanted to create something that is fun, whimsical and colorful. We chose to use greens blues and purples. The top logo was our first attempt, but each line ended with an "E" and the text is all around the same size. We decided to go away from the idea of cake for the logo, and to make the word of smaller than the words slice and cake. We noticed that Jen used a bow to top a lot of her cakes, so we decided to use the bow in the logo. The bottom logo is the final design we came up with, the tag line will go below the word cake.

This is page 3 of the newsletter. I keep the same elliptical shape for the graphics as I did on page 1. I wanted to keep the layout for each page consistent, but have variety within the layout.
