CHRISTMAS IN JULY

 Christmas Graphics at Etsy

It's that time of year again, when we designers think ahead to the holidays and try to design for the season! 

I don't know where the term 'Christmas in July' came from but I'm happy to try to get some notice of my holiday graphics that I've created over the years.

My Etsy shop has a good amount of holly, pine trees, nutcracker soldiers, vintage style snow covered pickup trucks, seasonal patterns and PNG files so go on over and see what you can find! 

Are you creating invites and announcements? Greeting cards? I've gotcha covered with beautiful swashes and flourishes!

I also have the most beautiful surface patterns! From mid-century modern to paisley! Check them out now!

SURFACE PATTERNS

 PATTERN MAKER

That's me! I just love creating repeating patterns! One of the first things I taught myself when I got Photoshop was how to make patterns that repeat so I could put my designs on fabric. 

I love the fact that you can use the tools at websites like Zazzle and Redbubble to 'repeat' or 'tile' your designs, that is sooo handy! So, I can upload a 12" x 12" x 150ppi design and just click on 'center tile' and it will repeat so I don't have to have a huge file stored on my computer.

So spring really sparks me to create repeating patterns for my fabric shop, Zazzle, Society6 and Redbubble shops. Here are the latest patterns that I've designed using my favorite art program, Artrage Vitae.

SPOONFLOWER DESIGN CONTEST ENTRY

All of these above can be found at my Spoonflower shop!

I've been on quite a creating binge lately, and I'm glad! It's been a while since I've been inspired to design. So, here are the latest fabrics that I've created starting with the HAMSA hand design for the Spoonflower design contest. I've designed 85 new patterns!! Not including the newest designs I've created for my Etsy shop!
