Some of you may remember when I tried my hand at making a mandala a couple of years back.
I did this one mostly with rubber stamps, embellished and circled with colored pencils. I really like how it turned out, so I started offering it as cards on Etsy.
Enter Spoonflower, a place where you can upload your designs to see how they'd look on fabric! I think Margaret told us about this before. :)
If you like how it came out and would like to offer it for sale on their site, you have to order this size piece first so you can approve how it looks. It's around $12.00
(This is terrible lighting, sorry.)
Here's a picture of it in better lighting. Now I see I really should have ironed it! hah! It's been in the package for a few weeks because I kept forgetting to post about it.
You can click to enlarge all of these which will also enlarge the holes in my wall!
Anyway, if you love playing around with pattern, do check out Spoonflower. At the very least it's a blast to play on their site with your designs.
Happy Blooming Tuesday!
Laurel! This is awesome. Love the soft colors. What a marvel. I'm checking out the site too.
