It's the final day for the Print & Pattern Blog in 2019, and we break up for the holidays. And This year I wanted to go out in style, Luckily Gina Maldonado of Coco Gigi Designs is creating a fabulous colourful advent calendar featuring lots of cute animals, birds and flowers. Gina is busy putting a lot of time into her You Tube channel and showcasing her design process. I'll be back on 13th January with a revived and refreshed blog! Merry Christmas to everyone. See you in 2020!
Little Paper Tulip is a pun loving crazy cat/dog lady that loves illustrating people’s pets! It’s so much fun drawing their cheeky personalities, little bow ties and accessories on them that they've decided to draw some cute digital illustrations for the countdown to Christmas to try something different. Paper Tulip normally paints in watercolour but has really enjoyed using a brighter trendy colour palette. One day they would love to illustrate their own book or stationery range, which would be amazing! Also if you’re interested in a personalised pet portrait you can find more illustrations at Little Paper Tulip online here or email via hello@littlepapertulip.com.
I always like to see folky designs, especially those with a Scandinavian feel. And luckily stores like Aldi always have Danish biscuits at Christmas. Here are a few snapshots from Aldi...
And below biscuits with a folk flavour spotted in Lidl.
There were so many lovely card designs from Paperchase's 2019 Christmas offering that I just had to make a second showcase. So here we have some elegant stylish designs to begin, followed by cute sketchy animals, and green painterly trees.
