I cannot thank Tracy enough for all her help with Spick & Span's Social Media. She does a fantastic job as a graphic designer but does so much more. For any small business with little time or know-how to do this for themselves, I recommend you contact Tracy who can run your social media schedule, however large or small. More...

Thank you Purplelily for the creative posters designed in the past and more recently for the layout support and fantastic line drawings for my work.
All of these were produced to a high standard in a fast, efficient and friendly way.
Very pleased with the result, thank you!

Tracy has designed a fantastic cover for my new book - Confident Business Writing. I gave her a few of my own ideas and she set her creative mind to work and came up with some amazing designs that I would never have come up with in a month of Sundays. The service was quick and thorough and I would recommend her for any design work. More...

Really pleased with the logo and business cards Tracy designed for me. I thought I wanted blue but Tracy was inspired by my red shoes and when she showed me the design in blue and in red, her choice looked so much better! I would recommend Tracy's services to everyone! More...

Very pleased with the logo Tracy took the time to create for a business venture which was (unfortunately) stopped in its tracks by the arrival of a little boy! My logo was meant to be professional, eye-catching with an ode to my best friend who lost her life far too young. Tracy was professional throughout, sent over plenty of proofs and took my sometimes particularly vague ideas on board. Thank you Tracy for the work you did. Once the kids have grown up, I'm looking forward to utilising your hard work!! More...

It's been a little while since Tracy designed my leaflets and banner stand for me but I still get positive feedback about them. She took the time to develop the few ideas I had into literature that was informative, eye catching but not too 'wordy'. Having no idea of what good design entails, I was surprised and impressed at the depth of detail that Tracy explored and the number of options that she created for discussion before we decided on the final design.

Huge thanks to Purplelily Design for designing my banner stand and leaflets. I’d never been through a full design process before and was really impressed with Tracy’s knowledge, guidance and attention to detail.
She asked sensible questions to help me focus on the message I was looking to deliver and made me feel that the process and my business was personal to her too. Highly recommended.

I am really pleased with the new logo, business cards and other graphics that Tracy has designed for me. I'm so glad she felt inspired by my red shoes to create gorgeous designs that look fantastic.

Tracy has worked on a couple of projects for me - a brochure and a leaflet. She has been very helpful and guided us through her recommendations and ideas. She liaised with the printer which was an added bonus for us. I am really pleased with the result and will definitely work with Tracy again on future projects. More...

An outstanding designer with an eye for colour and the smaller detail!
Describe your creative process.
I usually meet a client for a chat, or contact by email, and learn about what they like/dislike in design, who there target audience is, any events or deadlines, etc. After a confirmed brief I will require a deposit before I start work. I send designs as pdfs by email with the time taken so far to produce work, this continues until a final pdf has been approved. Any files required for print, etc are supplied and a final invoice is sent my client with thanks.
What do you love most about your job?
Every client is different, so every job is different, I love the variety. I also love to see a happy client when the final design is approved.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Flexibility, creativity and direct contact with clients without office politics.
Why should our clients choose you?
As well as producing creative designs I will work with my clients on copy and concepts to make their businesses stand out.
I run an ethical business and look for businesses that share the same values, and would like to work with a design partner to make their business stand out. If you are ethically focused and feel passionately that your business should have minimal negative impact on the environment, please get in touch for a 10% discount.
