Reflecting on 2025: Our Biggest Year Yet

Out of office is officially off, and as we step into 2026, it feels right to pause and look back on what was a huge year for Make Create.

2025 was busy, demanding, energising, and deeply rewarding. It was shaped by incredible clients, meaningful industry involvement, and a lot of behind-the-scenes work that doesn’t always make it to the grid.

It also marked the final year of my formal volunteering roles with AADC and She Creates. I’ve been involved with the .com.au since 2017, serving on committee as Sponsorship Chair, and later founded .adl, holding the Co-Chair role through to the end of 2025.

This year included hosting three She Creates events – International Women’s Day, Mums the Word (creating space to share stories about parenthood), and celebrating five years of the community. Stepping away from these roles was a big decision, but one I’m proud of, and I’m excited to see what 2026 brings with a little more space to refocus.

Here’s a snapshot of what 2025 looked like for Make Create:

Bump&Mind Childbirth Hypnosis
Birth Affirmation Cards

by Make Create

*****

Make Create worked with BUMP&MIND to create their newest offering - BUMP&MIND Childbirth Affirmation Cards.

These are 20 positive, strong statements about your mind and body that aid in preparing you for your childbirth experience. The positive affirmations are to be used in the antenatal period, labour and birth and into the postnatal period to reprogram your thinking, so that over time you begin to think, feel and act differently.

I loved working with Bump&mind on this project, such a beautiful idea and wonderful words by Jamie. The highlight for me was being able to get out my pens and create the 20 bouquet illustrations. A job that had time on its side… seems like a rarity in today’s word, but it definitely enabled us to get everything perfect.

BUMP&MIND Childbirth Affirmation Cards can be purchased on their website via the shop https://bumpandmind.com.au/shop/

*****

Working with Showpony Advertising as the producer for their recent Lutheran Care - Foster Care campaign, I came on board and organised the TV and photography shoot.

Shot within a single frame environment we used multi-layered frames to seamlessly show scenes to create a story of a child and his carer as they adapt to life together. With the passing of time we were able to capture key moments, showing their growing connection as they navigate both challenges and joy, while bringing life to a home.

From the Make Create archives ~ 2014

Clancy & Co. is a brand that was created by a friend of mine who turned their hobby of making children’s clothing and accessories to a small business that sold their items in market stalls and various local stockists.

I created a logo that worked in both horizontal and vertical format, and applied this design to a business card, swing tag, clothing tag and packaging.

It's been a week since myself and this group of women that we call She Creates, came together to host this year's major event at the National Wine Centre

This year it was the She Creates Workshop which was a full-day workshop for ambitious women within the creative communications industry.

Our speakers and workshop leaders led a room full of guests on a higher mission to overcome challenges and achieve goals. They shared honest stories about their successes and lessons learnt throughout their creative careers, offering actionable advice you can take back to the office.

It was a huge success and made the blood, sweat and tears in the lead up all worth it. Thank you to all that attended, and thank you to the superwomen in this picture that put it all together. ✨💪🏻

I always enjoy creating custom designs for my private clients, which usually involves designing specific items for events such as a wedding.

Testimonial from my lovely client Cass:
Amy at Make Create is a gem. She designed all our invites, menus, name card and table seating chart, with printing by Kwik Kopy. Amy was super fast and efficient and designed our own unique font to use on all the stationery, which was really special. Would definitely recommend!

Please get in touch if you have an event of any kind where you need a custom design created. We manage the whole process from initial briefing right to the printing and delivery.

Custom Culture Co.
Creating their brand identity

Logo Design • Signage • Apparel • Print Collateral
by Make Create

****

Custom Culture Co. is the dream of my client. The business builds, rebuilds, paints, and restores cars, bikes, fridges, and even coffee machines, but it didn’t stop there. Custom Culture Co. wanted to bring together a space that you can hold car club meetings, sports club movie nights, birthday celebrations, and much more… so that’s what they did.

When creating this brand I had to be mindful that it is a versatile business that reaches a wide target audience. The community is also built around 3 business segments; Automotive Body Shop, Apparel & Merchandise Label, and Event Activations.

This is the result, a custom hand drawn logo that would work if applied to any application of the business.

From the Make Create archives ~ 2016

This project saw me to work with Oranje Creative, on a new website for St Andrew’s School in Walkerville.

The website was build using the Wordpress platform and templates built inline with the design, brand identity and sitemap supplied.

Melinda, the Creative Director, involved me from the beginning of the project, so it was a smooth transition from design through to development through to site launch.
