New Logo?

[VHunter]

I want to revamp my logo, stationary, business cards, website... all of it.
Give it a cleaner, edgier look BUT still be feminine because my name is part of it?
As in "Victoria's Nails" aka "Ongles Chez Victoria" which evokes Victorianism, and roses, and rose fabric... which I'm not keen on roses... so nix that idea.

I don't want to use one of those ready made logos. I want one of my own.
This is my old Business card that i put together on my own (yes, should read 'enhancements, but this was back in my early days and haven't redesigned my card since...) and my stationary is roughly the same.
I've already decided on how I'm changing the wording. It's really about logo.

Any ideas ladies & gents?

THANKS in advance.
:hug:

I like the idea of your original card .......

BUT, I think (using the original format) ... harden the text ..... (that "V" reminds me of an aloe vera plant.

Make the whole lot more geometric text and loose the textured background, that way, it's the same, but a progression from your past.

A harsher version of what you aready have would look cool.

I agree that it would look better if the text was hardened a bit - the colours & font style with the textured background makes it look a little 'dated' in a faded days gone by sort of way.

The Victorian era isn't all roses! They were very keen on rich dark colours like ruby red & forest green that were striking to the eyes. Also, there is a bit of a revival of Victoriana at the moment, especially with William Morris prints. Try typing "Victorian wallpaper pattern" into Google images & have a look at them, as well as the modern use of them - you needn't cover the card in them, but a single motif might give it the look you are after.

In fact, it was very popular to have silhouette drawings in Victorian times - how about a pair of hands in silhouette in a Victorian style surround (i.e. a black scrolly pattern providing an oval frame about the silhouette)?
