IF - 'paisley'

calendar journal, 5.5 x 8

Almost finished another week in my calendar journal for June, so decided to post it for IF's prompt as I did a 'paisley' pattern in the border. I've been working on some pattern & surface designs for awhile to put in my portfolio and so started adding them in this journal.....fun :)

Here's a link if you're interested in finding out more about the history of 'paisley' and of course don't forget this one for more 'paisley' art inspiration.

Cheers!

Inspire Me Thursday - 'Polka Dots'

A little late getting this in but thought I'd share it anyhow. I've been working on a portfolio of surface design work from my doodles as I've always loved patterns & whimsical design. Polka Dots are one of the most versatile design patterns don't you think? One of my recent creations just happens to have Polka Dots in it. I've created it in a few different color combos, this one being pink & green.

I also mocked up a greeting card in the pink & green version which I'll be posting in my Zazzle shop very soon. I think it would be a wonderful inspirational pick-me-upper card for anyone experiencing a little "rain" in their life :>
