Interesting insects

 Today's word for the #doodleadayoct drawing challenge from @ellolovey is 'insects' and I created this print using the very pleasing colour palette that Rhianna provided for the challenge. I love the deep purple background and the rich colours of the variety of decorative bugs sits perfectly on top.

I also designed this illustration on a cream background. Which one do you prefer?

This is the colour palette for October's drawing challenge.

Flutterbies

The sun is out, the air is warm and I couldn't resist making this Florence clasp bag today, made from a summery print of fluttering butterflies. I love the bright colours and funky images and thought it went very well with my sweet little Lila coin purse, made out of ladybugs. You can find it on my Etsy store. Roll on summer.....
