Round 49--Numerals --Group B (3.09) 
I chose the number eight because of its infiniteness. It's said to be the number of perfection and prosperity. Also, my birth month is 8. I love Mid-Century Modern design so I chose a similar color palette used on the exterior of many Eichler ranch homes.

Trying to think spring. That is why my design is themed after the butterflies. Julie Meyer | Green Bay, Wisconsin Designer - J Meyer Design www.jmeyerdesign.com Back to Round 49 --------------- 
I chose to use a group of numbers that meant a lot to me. I chose my wedding anniversary because my husband is currently serving in Afghanistan and I wanted to do something for him too! I went with using our zodiac signs which are pisces and virgo. I am also a big fan of tattoo art, so I worked the two together and this is what I came up with! Who knows, maybe I will make it an actual tattoo!

This was a tough round for me. While I did actually vote for this theme, in general numbers make my eyes glaze over. So to find a meaningful number/numeral for me would prove to be the most challenging part of this assignment. So I thought about numbers and did a littel research and then I realized that there was one number with a storied history that would work quite nicely, 13. While I don't personally find 13 unlucky or bad luck, most people do. I decided to take advantage of this stereotype and create a creepy image. I used some new tools for me: A Faber Castel Brush pen and my new Moleskine notebook to hand-render the numbers which I then scanned into Photoshop where I added texture and lighting to give the number the proper mood.
