my creative space - tulips

One of my new year's resolutions is to make and post a lot more patterns here this year and here's the first. This new tulip design arrived in my mind fully formed the other day, and went straight down on paper and then into illustrator just as I imagined it. I love it when that happens :-) There are a couple of things I might change, and I can't work out which colour I like... And those daisies? I like the way they break up the space, what do you think?

More creative types at Kirsty's shiny new space!

  6. It's fantastic Susie! I'm loving how the design could also be seen to have musical notes in it too because of the upside down flower leaves - very cute :) I like the red and the green. Kx

    I can't decide which I like best. The red and green on the white are great, but I also like the strength of the white on pink. Great work!
