HELEN BARLOW – CRAFT HUT DESIGNS

After completing my BA(Hons) in Graphic Design, I initially designed promotional materials for small businesses, including leaflets, posters, point of sale, brochures and adverts.
Later, I was fortunate to take a break from work to raise my children and took an opportunity to deregister them from mainstream school in order to home educate and learn otherwise for a total of 2 years. During this time we experienced travelling parts of Europe in a motor-home for 3 months, which I am very grateful for.
When the children returned to school and I began to develop my design work into digital products. These are typically a design delivered to customers via download or email.
Some of my work is available from my Etsy shop called Craft Hut Designs, providing digital templates for making personalised paper cut greetings cards. I’m proud to hold over 1300 positive reviews and have consistently earned Star Seller Status for providing an exceptional service.
I also design and illustrate for a cutting machine company, Cricut, which involves uploading my digital artwork to be used by members worldwide.
My next focus is to expand into other digital products including printables, ebooks and surface pattern design.
