School Supplies Fabric

This week's contest at Spoonflower is the School Supplies Contest.  All of the school supplies in my design are created out of cut paper and made into a paper collage.  I really enjoyed cutting the different colored papers and putting this design together.  The first design I ever did out of only paper was for the Paper Collage Cakes Contest called Cupcakes.  That turned out to be a lot of fun and this one was too. 

As I was creating this one it was making me excited for the new school year and for the fall!  I'm so ready for the fall!  My favorite shows are coming back, pumpkin everything, my crockpot, cooler weather and the colors of the leaves on the trees.  One of my favorite sounds is the sound of the wind blowing the leaves down a quiet street.  For this design I knew right away that I wanted to have apples in the mix.  Of course I had to have a teacher's apple.  Apples are another wonderful thing about the fall.

Paper Collage Cakes Contest

This week's contest at Spoonflower is the Paper Collage Cakes Contest.  I created this design completely out of watercolor paints and watercolor paper.  My design is called Cupcakes and is now available for purchase!  For this contest we had to create the design out of paper only.  I will be very honest...I'm not sure which was harder not getting to use photoshop like I'm used to, or the fact that I could not find my scissors and had to use my three year old daughter's safety scissors to create this masterpiece. 

 

Cupcakes

 

 

 

This was a very fun competition for me.  I was inspired by a local cupcake business here in Plano, Texas called Sugar Queen Cupcakes.
