I absolutely adore designing just using blue and white, so a delft tile challenge was right up my street.

Retro Nouveau Spoonflower Challenge
It seems that the prompts for the spoonflower challenges are being written by AI, the images that accompany the prompts are certainly AI and they have been called on that. This is the challenge description
Retro Nouveau
“This mashup mixes the organic motifs and ornate shapes of Art Deco with the bold colors and geometric patterns of a retro vibe.”
Art deco and Art Nouveau are not even that same styles, so the whole thing is very confusing.
Even more confusing is what to design.
I ended up going with a stain glass art nouveau peacock and I actually had a lot of fun with circles in this design, can you see them?
Thrift Store Treasures Challenge
Thrift Store treasures, what to pick as these shops sell basically everything! I decided upon fun kid themed musical instruments. Things to bash, shake and generally make a noise! With a bright color palette this would be perfect in a young child’s bedroom or decor in a school music room.

Garden Tapestry Spoonflower Design Challenge.
This was an interesting challenge to design for. I imagined myself lying in a garden meadow looking up to the stars! With all the light pollution we have in the Chicago area it never really gets very dark!
Midnight Meadow Tapestry
Jewel Toned Boho Spoonflower Challenge
The palette of Jewel Tones is really up for interpretation so I think this challenge will be all over the place! I went for a patchwork sort of look which would really stunning made into overalls, or dungarees as us Brits call them!

Autumn Hunt Club Spoonflower Design Challenge
The spoonflower challenge this week is to create a design that channels the vintage Americana-meets-British aristocracy look found in classic country clubs. Having split my life almost 50-50 between the USA and Britain, this prompt spoke to me but have to say the “sport” of hunting is very different either side of the pond.
I also did some line art versions.
Animal Print Spoonflower Challenge
I already have a whole collection of Animal Print Patterns on Spoonflower but it is the prompt for this week’s challenge so I conjured up something different.
1970’s Spoonflower Design Challenge
If 70′ decor is making a come back then I cringe, but it is the prompt for this week’s Spoonflower challenge.
I fiddled about with loud geometric shapes but nothing really spoke to me so I went in a completely different direction and ended up channeling platform boots … as you do! It would make a really interesting wallpaper for a vintage clothing store.
70s Platform Shoes And Paisley
I also updated a old design I had done for a previous 70’s challenge to reflect the colorways of my new design
Festive Animals Spoonflower Challenge
This week’s Spoonflower challenge is Festive animals and over the years I have created quite a few designs that fit neatly into this prompt. See my Christmas Festive Animals collection
I thought I’d be stumped for ideas for this one but I have been playing around with my Busy Dam Beavers and thought it was about time they had some Christmas fun. Beavers aren’t really an animal you associate with Christmas but that is how I like to roll!
