This week’s Spoonflower design contest theme was (bet you guessed it) Herb Garden.  In my earlier post I talked about my original idea for this. A watercolor design. Well, I did a 180 and went digital.

I am really happy with this design. It is much more simple than I had originally planned. I was going to add a secondary pattern in the background. Basil and Bay leaf shapes, some with texture for added interest.

I learned new skills while working on this. Love that! I am really proud of my little pots! Here is a close-up for you.

Can you believe there are over 400 pieces here? Rosemary, chives and cilantro.

Creating the plants took longer than I thought they would. I am going to continue working on the secondary pattern, add it to this and create a small collection. I may also offer these in a grouping (like the close-up) for use as a decal.

Sitting here at my desk, I spotted this outside my window… teeny, tiny, and pink. Don’t forget to stop… and take notice.

There's a new leaf in town.
