Malibuitalian

It's been a while since we last posted but I realized that I've been remiss in not reviewing designs from one of my favorite Zazzlers. This post is all about Malibuitalian. Not only is she a warm caring person, but its obvious to see from her plethora of designs that she is an animal lover as well as a talented designer.  So let's see what's on the plate!

If anyone reads this blog, they would know that I'm a big fan of shops and designers that develop an entire product line from one business concept. That this fun series of pet grooming products includes an employee shirt in addition to its many matching products, makes this a comprehensive corporate identity series for any pet groomer or dog care business

This landscaping chubby business card conveys the business type simply and effectively. Its a little bit of a departure to show a graphic silhouette of a tree. I like that it is straightforward black-and-white rather than the typical greens or browns often used on products for landscapers.

This fun, chubby business card utilizes an antique-look map to convey the idea of finding your way via traveling. It gives the impression of setting off on an adventure.

Here is another travel-related business card that uses the look of a box wrapped with twine to communicate worldwide travel. The text fits nicely within the confines of the twine and the postmark is a great touch.

This letterhead is another pet-related business product. Its' simple dog and cat silhouettes immediately shows the business type without any fuss.

An employee shirt and return address label are two of the pieces from a maid-service product line that uses a whimsical illustration of a maid complete with apron. Malibuitalian is clear in her choice of graphics that ultimately help a client or customer get their business focus out there and evident.

Frankly, these products make me a little hungry! Malibuitalian has used a wonderful illustration of ice cream sundaes on both a flyer and business card. The awning for the flyer is perfection and I love how it reflects ice cream colors. Absolutely ideal for an ice cream social as used here, or it can be customized for any type of ice cream party or notice. The sundaes are accompanied by delicious looking baked goods and sweets on the business card. The tones are muted and have a vintage feel.

A special-event rack card in tones of pink, purple and black is very different from the products shown above. This rack card obviously is for a nightlife promotion and it picks up the feel of that with its mix of grungy and classic fonts. The funky imagery has a wonderful frenetic look which is emphasized against the rich black background.


Unrelated to business designs, she has a section of her shop dedicated to her Labradoodle, Bella, which makes me giggles every time I see them and I just had to bring some attention to one in particular. This greeting card features Bella as a 1940s Pilot.

 

Bella implores anyone to check out Malibuitalian for unique business designs (and some that might even make you smile)
