#TedBakerLines

Ted Baker introduce 'Ted's Finishing School'

Each day throughout the week, from Monday 11th - Friday 15th March, Ted Baker have encouraged followers to get creative and submit an image in response to a daily 'line'.

I have eagerly wanted to submit an entry all week, but due to a busy schedule today has been the only day I have been able to respond. Today's line was "I never compromise on the art of smart" and I came up with this...

Being an illustrator, of course, I decided to illustrate my response within the concept of a fashion illustration. I am totally in love with this Ted Baker- Bird Print Shirt, so took inspiration from this to create my own Ted inspired smart fashion girl. I used my own bird illustrations to create the garment print, which I am super pleased with!



If you're feeling creative.. respond to tomorrow's line, which will be revealed at 11am. Submit an entry through Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. (Make sure you hashtag #TedBakerLines for your entry to be valid!) There are prizes up for grabs too, including limited edition tote bags and spot prizes each day.

A little bit about The Blog & Buy Sale..

The Blog & Buy Sale is a curated list of the very best creative products available online.

"Run by James & Josephine, BlogAndBuySale was launched to help support and showcase the very best creative sellers from around the world.

Intended to promote artists and designers who sell their work on the internet, BlogAndBuySale is all about helping up and coming talent looking to get noticed and make some real cash to boot. There are so many brilliant things getting sold by independent artists and designers, but the problem is the public doesn’t always stumble upon them."

There are some awards up for grabs too! - including, "most shared", "BlogAndBuySale Pick" and "Guest Creative Pick". 

We are delighted to welcome The Design Trust and The Design Museum Shop as our Guest Creative Judges for the Spring special! They will be picking a shortlist of their favourite products before announcing their top pick after the Wish List has finished.
