Ohhhh, Very Peri, the Pantone color of the year 2022 and how much I love this color, particularly compared to the yellow and gray yuck we had last year! Hooray for this week’s Spoonflower design challenge!
I created quite a number of designs for this challenge and it was hard to pick which one to enter but I eventually decided on my Lavender Farm
But these hedgehogs were a very close contender
2022 is the year of the tiger and the prompt for this week’s Spoonflower Challenge.
I took a whimsical approach and created a pattern that would be super fun in the kids decor arena.
I also created another colorway – Night Tiger Tile
The prompt for this week’s Spoonflower challenge was Vintage Canned Goods, and this is where my warped mind took me. It’s amazing how my own brain can surprise me! My better half is like ” No! A cat can’t fit in a sardine tin” and I am like “Why not”
I had so much fun designing my entry for the Block Adventure Spoonflower design challenge this week.
I imagined myself chartering a boat from a rouge captain and having an ocean adventure. Oh the place we would go and the fun to be had!
Captain Scallywag Ocean Adventures
It is the end of my second year of challenging myself to enter every single Spoonflower design challenge and being the competitive girl that I am I also wanted to beat my 2020 results ! In 2020 I had 1 win, 6 more top ten placements and an additional 23 free proofs … gosh that seemed a daunting result to beat. 30 designs received some sort of prize!
But oh my goodness I did it! 2 wins, 11 additional top ten placements and 23 free proofs, making 36 designs receiving some sort of prize!
That is a tough act to follow in 2022 but I am going to do my best!
It is the first challenge of the 2022 and I am dilly dallying over which design to enter for Ditsy Adventure.
I recently got a space themed design prompt from my nephew which was turned into a duvet cover but on a small scale it works really nicely as a ditsy print.
But I also drew inspiration from the ocean and all the wonderful unexplored expanse it offers and created a whimsical submarine adventure.
I think I am going to go for my space adventure … for now.. who knows I may change my mind!
