Feedback on My Work
Ellie is very efficient and reliable. Being a huge support in the start up of my new business- her leaflet designs she created , all had fantastic vision , it was hard to choose the best one! Then once we decided on one she was able to incorporate it into a business card. She would be a credit to anyone looking for a creative design - highly recommended.
