This week's Spoonflower contest is 'Interspecies Animal Friendships'; a theme which could have so many combinations of animals! I decided to create a design focused on cats and birds, just because I like cats and birds really. :) You can see below some of my work in progress, where I started with pencil drawings in my sketchbook, which became pen line drawings. These were then turned into vector art and I finished the design digitally. I wanted to experiment with flatter colour this time as well as changing the colours of my line drawings.

PS. Thank you if you voted for my Year of the Monkey design a couple of weeks ago - it came 43rd out of 252 entries with 141 votes. I received a test swatch of it last week on Spoonflower's new Cotton Spandex Jersey, which means you can now buy my Year of the Monkey design on fabric, gift wrap and wallpaper. I was impressed with the new Cotton Spandex Jersey fabric too. It's a lovely soft and stretchy fabric, I think it would be great for making t-shirts and comfy clothing!
