My Yellow, Gray, & Floral designs started as an exercise in Module 2 from Make it in Design. The brief was to create elegant coordinated patterns for a stationery collection.

I decided to use this stylized flower I had sketched in my art journal as the basis for the designs.

For the color palette, I started with one of my favorite color combinations: yellow and gray, and then added the coral. I hand-drew the flowers, scanned them, and traced them in Adobe Illustrator. I use the rectangle tool to create the diamond shapes.

I added color to the floral motifs and used them and the diamonds in different combinations on each piece of the collection.

For my Redbubble shop, I changed the name of the collection to Yellow, Coral, and Gray Floral Designs. In addition, I tweaked the designs from the stationary to fit the products better.

These designs are available on wall art, phone cases, home decor, stickers, magnets, and more.
