End of year message

Cinnamon Creative has had a fantastic 2009 and we've ended very positively by completing several exciting digital briefs, as well as producing print projects in the last month alone that total print runs of 230,000 pieces.

Check out the portfolio section of www.cinnamoncreative.com very soon for details of all these projects.

Thank you to all of our clients, many long standing and many new, for a fantastic year and inspiring projects. 2009 brought us the greatest number of new clients to date, and Karen and her team cannot wait to build on these old and new relationships in 2010.

Happy Holidays everyone!

Colour of the Year for 2010: PANTONE 15-5519 Turquoise



Pantone today announced PANTONE 15-5519 Turquoise, as the colour of the year for 2010.

"In many cultures, Turquoise occupies a very special position in the world of colour," explained Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute.

"It is believed to be a protective talisman, a colour of deep compassion and healing, and a colour of faith and truth, inspired by water and sky.

"It is universally flattering, has appeal for men and women, and translates easily to fashion and interiors."

Hhhmmmm... I am more of a Pantone Red 485 kind of girl.

Nice website design that combines my two favourite things: good typography and chocolate
