Limited color palette! That means no transparencies or variations of color! Limited palettes are extra challenging for me because I LOVE to add lots of textures and variations of colors.

I loved doing this design and chose to create some friendly little characters for this piece. Sweet dreams caterpillars and fireflies–and to all your cute little snuggle bugs at home!

This week’s Spoonflower Challenge is Birds and Blooms (some of my very favorite subjects). At this time of year, my house is buzzing with the excitement of Spring.

Featuring adorable little sunbathing beach dogs, beach umbrellas, crabs, popsicles and polka dots. You can find the complete “Hexagon […]
These specific colors had to be used in this week’s challenge–transparencies and mixing of colors are not allowed and adding white and/or black is optional. The subject theme is succulents. This was a tricky challenge because I really kept wanting to add some more colors or variations and textures in the colors. In the end, I’m […]
So excited! I placed 5th with my Geodesic Artichoke design in this week’s Spoonflower Challenge. If you voted for me, thank you SO much! When I first posted about this design, I was thinking it would be a great chair or tea towel. I created this in a large-scale pattern, so it really makes a […]
