Red Velvet Art offers for sale the genius creative brainchildren of Elsie Flannigan, including original art, prints, craft kits, sunglasses, and tons of other creative stuff that lightens the heart.

The site's success owes to the joining of three forces: Elsie Flannigan, Classy Llama Studios, and Magento...

Elsie Flannigan custom illustrated the entire site, infusing her unique artistic brand on everything from the shopping cart icons to the background image. She doesn't miss a thing.

Classy Llama Studios started the process with in-depth consultation which resulted in a well-defined scope and a grayscale wireframe upon which Elsie applied her illustrative genius. A CLS creative director also helped Elsie fit her creative genius into a web-shaped container. The Classy Llama team then implemented the design and functionality and refined the traffic flow to optimize sales conversions and customized Magento to serve Elsie's specific needs.

Magento served as the e-commerce platform upon which we built RedVelvetArt.com. With the robust expanse of built-in features and functionality, RVA was able to enjoy thousands of hours worth of development for a fraction of the cost. RVA now manages all of their products, product updates, and has analytics and sales reports at their fingertips due to Magento's broadly encompassing infrastructure. What's more, because of Magento's intelligently designed code base, the Classy Llama team was able to easily extend Magento to add the customized features required to make RVA a success.

Classy Llama continues to work with Elsie on a consultative basis to ensure her continued success. Overall, it has been a lot of fun, and we are thankful to be a part of the success that is RedVelvetArt.com.
