Spoonflower.

To celebrate the Year of the rabbit which is me and my fiance, I have entered the latest Spoonflower competition. Boing boing!! :)

Runner up.

So close but not quite...came runner up again this month over at the Tigerprint contemporary floral competition. Again lovely things said about my entry.

A really lovely use of colour is demonstrated with this design by Miss Pixie. Also clever detail is introduced with texture and pattern and the applique centre.

Well done.

Competition entry.

Just before I went into labour I filled some time by entering the last Tigerprint competition, design a contemporary floral design fitting into one of three suggested colour palettes.
I chose to use some potato prints I had created in the summer and played with them in both photoshop and illustrator and so here are my entries!
Happy Friday all :)

Runner up.

I came runner up in the Tigerprint competition, they said nice things about my design.
"A beautiful design, demonstrating a great placement along with the brilliant stitched detail. Great design".

Happy Friday.

4 days inside now due to the snow and although going slightly stir crazy I have been motoring with work inspired by the snow, HAVE to go out tomorrow so it better have started to thaw!!
In contrast to the snow I did fancy a bit of the lastest Tigerprint comp so here are my 2 springy mothers day entries, have great weekends everyone x x x

Winner!!

Well I never, I have won the Tigerprint competiton this month with my masculine football themed design. Brilliant news! This is what lovely things Tigerprint had to say about my design...

Alas there can only be one winner and this month the prize goes to Ilona with her entry above.

"This is a beautiful and clever design. It contains many of the icons we might see in old style traditional cards but the use of photography and thoughtful placement brings it right up to date.

The old style boot and coin are a lovely nostalgic touch and are nicely complimented by the union flag which adds some current trend and keeps the colours alive. The grass background is fun and is what made this design stand out".

Well done Ilona.
