This idea came to me quickly. Perhaps out of necessity. Or stress. I’ve been so busy with my painting projects, I didn’t start until late the night before the deadline. I thought about adding textures, but I think there is enough going on.

Voting is open until May 16th. I spied lots of fun, colorful designs on page one! Have fun! Thanks so much for taking a look!

I don’t even need to write a post for this design. The title is long enough, all by itself! There is a prompt when you enter the challenge that asks if your title meets the challenge requirements. I may have over thought it. 😏

Spoonflower partnered with Pantone for this, their Pantone Ultra-Steady Wallpaper Design Challenge. Now that is a mouthful. Pantone selected the limited palette.

I eliminated the greys right off. I wasn’t feeling “minty”, or ultra-bold. That left me with three soft hues. I did try a dark outline, to bring in another color. I prefer the soft tones on their own. I had in mind a deconstructed, or faded feel.

The Spoonflower Fans page on Facebook gives me an early peek to some of the designs. And WOW! The designers made awesome use of the palettes. Voting is open until May 9th. Can you believe we are in May already?

Festive Table Linens for Spoonflower

This week the Spoonflower design challenge was for Birthday Party Table Linens. And it is being shown on the table runner. I decided to make sure my entry worked on the runner. Which meant that it might not work as well on many of the other products. The coordinating designs do work more universally. But I goofed. They used a different mock up. Haha. I should have done a toss pattern.

The brief also stated we should consider the design being used for years to come. I considered using a more generic phrase. One that would work for birthdays and various celebrations.

I have done only one other chevron design. But it seemed perfect for this. To me, suggesting a banner hanging high above the birthday table.

Working on the confetti was almost as fun as tossing the real stuff.

Voting is now open, until next Tuesday.

You can see the top 66, here. So many awesome patterns, and one really creepy spider. Eww!

I am so thankful for your votes. Really, really! Thank you! 😊🙏

Wishing you an awesome day, and a perfect weekend!
We are 78 today! Hallelujah! Warmth! 🫠
