About Us
I can’t thank the two of you for the incredible new look and design! The comments have all been WOW and my new team kits and caps are going to look AMAZING!! The work you do is beautiful and you turned it around quickly. You two were so easy to work with, professional and patient with my changes. Thank you again.

Karen and Shelby are an absolute pleasure to work with! They understand the vision of our organization and our magazine and that is what sets them apart – that is the strongest component of a successful marketing resource. They are swift, diligent and will go out of their way to ensure timely delivery and a great product! WBE Canada is lucky to have them as our magazine designers.

If you haven’t had the pleasure of working with Karen and Shelby, you are going to love it. They haven’t just elevated the creative we get for our clients, but the process of getting there is invaluable. The discussion around intent and objective as well as the process produces content that is inspiring and it is a lot of fun getting to the final product. Whether logo design, creative for flyers, or creative for our social sites, you will be happy with product and process. There really is a difference working with talented people.

Owner | Results Marketing Group
We went to Karen and Shelby with a picture, outline of our vision and a tight timeline for them to establish what we wanted for our new brand. They were able to layout great choices that guided us into selecting the one design we went to market with. Collaborating closely with us the team at Grassick Graphic Communications provided what we needed on time and on budget.

Karen and Shelby gave our company a logo we’re proud of. Their creative process is easy and enjoyable! We couldn’t have asked to work with a better company or better people. We’d recommend them to anyone seeking creative design help!
