It’s time for another installment of Polly Picks! I hope you are enjoying getting to know the staff here at TLP better and getting a taste for the diverse styles that make up our creative team. This week’s Polly Pick feature is Heather Joyce. Heather is a designer of awesome fonts here at the Pad, but she has also been a member of the CT for even longer. Heather’s distinctive pages always pop out of the gallery. She balances open space with well-composed clusters, complete with detailed embellishments like paint and buttons. If you love pages that balance white space with scrappy goodness, you need to check out Heather’s gallery! You can also shop her style at 20% off in the store through 12.22.
Here’s what Heather has to say about her style: “It’s rare for me to do a page without a whole bunch of white space, but in the past year, it’s become much more literal. Looking through my gallery that has been the most consistent thing with my pages. They somehow seem balanced with more empty space. I love to cluster a whole bunch of stuff, but realism has always been important to me. I switched to photoshop to get more realistic shadowing styles and now manipulate then even more to tuck and pull in all the right places. Paint is a must. Here goes the balance again… something clean needs a little bit of mess. And buttons. Those are a super total absolute must! They are just so cute and fun. I like them a lot. Lastly a little bit of ephemera never hurt a page. It’s like a little nod to yesteryear and always makes me warm and fuzzy inside.”
Let’s take a look at that great balance between clean and messy that is a trademark of Heather’s pages:
