Animals of the Ocean!

This one was easy for me. I love the ocean and had so much fun producing my design for it, though I must admit drawing the anemones were time consuming!

Animals By Land

What to do? The contest theme is Animals By Land, wild animals that is. I have quite a few wild animals tucked away in amongst all my 1100+ designs. The challenge was to think of a new one. I wanted to create Squirrels. Thought of trying a cartoon style design... BUT when I started drawing.. this grew out of the screen.

CUTE SQUIRRELS

Just ignore the watermarks, they are just for picture protection. Half the time I forget to put them on.

Animals By Air

I've been looking forward to this contest because I knew what I wanted to do even before it was posted, so for once I was ready with an idea. A while ago I did a design with Bees, and I've done several with butterflies.. but I am keen to work on designs about animals in danger of becoming extinct and along with Bees, Bats are another endangered species. So this is what I have created. These are fruit bats, they LOVE MANGOS! LOL
It's called BATS ABOUT YOU!

Then I got to thinking... hmmmm wonder how they'd look if they were black... so....

BAT IN BLACK 1

BAT 2 IN BLACK

BAT 3 IN BLACK

BAT 4 IN BLACK

The dilemma now is.. which one to submit to the contest! Oh Boy :>D

Elegant Holiday

The Theme "Using at least two of the colors from the palette provided (#2B061E, #5A001C, #AAB5A8) & optional accents of black & white, create a repeating design inspired by a sophisticated winter dinner party." 

And as usual.. it takes time to come up with something.. LOL...And the first one felt lacking..

Posh Cloth Plain

Though my one Brother would like it because there is space around design.. I felt it didn't have OOOmmpphh!
So I tried again.. putting shadows behind the holly.. hmm stopped half way, didn't really like it and it was taking too long... Then I tried embossed holly leaves in the background.. and decided it was just too busy.. then I tried this....

POSH CLOTH DIAMOND CHECK

And I felt that it had come together.. I have other coordinates and will add them here soon.. It's late and I'm tired..
So, thanks for visiting :>D

Marrakesh Rainbow Tiles

Marrakesh, the challenge at Spoonflower this coming week is about the bright colours, smell of spices, fabrics flapping in the breeze, big blue skies, huge yellow sun..... of Marrakesh!

The archways are everywhere, and are a big part of Marrakesh, so, I took the arch and made flowers.......

Cycling!

Some swear by it as the ultimate exercise, some think other sports are better... BUT this week, on Spoonflower, they have decided that as "spring" is here, yeah I know, spring? , that folks will be enjoying the great outdoors on their bikes... hmmmmmmm I wonder.

Anyway, I didn't want to do a design with bikes and people riding down roads or pathways... I mulled it over and over and over..... and eventually came up with this...

Endangered Species!

It's never too late, well, sometimes it can be, so you have to act NOW! Don't think that "someone else" is going to give, or create, or do, or help, or fix... because they probably think that "someone else" will!

If everyone does something.. no matter how small.. they all add up to something HUGE!

My cry is for the BEES!
Here's what I did to bring attention to them.......Click the caption under each picture to see the design.
