HA!!! I DID IT!!!!

I made a damask. Yes my dears, I drew all that and made it repeat. I am feeling pretty happy with myself at the moment, like when you finally play a song perfectly or your recipe comes out just right. I'm in that head-space that the moment. My Illustrator pattern & ornament classes over at Nicole's Classes are paying off WOOT!


I made this to coordinate with this Serena and Lily print that I have for my room. I picked the color palette for my room from Design Seeds and I wanted something that brought all of the colors together in one place. TA-DAH! Mission accomplished.


That's a close-up of the print. The repeat is eight inches so it's pretty large. I'm going to have it printed at Spoonflower and then make it into some pillows or shams for my room.

Oh, I'm happy.

See you tomorrow,
H

  10. That's really impressive! Way to go. I need to learn how to make patterns myself. Slowly but surely working on my Photoshop skills.
