4 Don’t ✗
2. Do use white or neutral backgrounds But ..If the unavoidable happens... We’d prefer it if you used a light colour from our pallet or a photo, use either of the black or white logos, depending on what’s clearer. 3. Be kind to her. Do not make her sit on garish colours, it doesn’t allow her to shine.
2 Do ✓
5 Don’t ✗
4. Beware of clutter. Do not use the logo on backgrounds that are too light or cluttered. 5. Don’t swivel, twist or stretch her. 6. There’s no need to embellish - she’s perfect as she is so no drop-shadows, embossing etc. are necessary.
