#78 for Color of the Year Challenge!

Yay! My entry for the Pantone Color of the Year 2024 design challenge at Spoonflower came in at #78 out of more than 1700 entries – that’s top 4%!

My design, Pear Tree & Partridge, was inspired by the classic Christmas tune, but with a peachy twist. I did the same design in Christmas colors too, plus fun companion prints, all available for sale in my Spoonflower shop.

Very excited and pleased at this outcome – the competition was stiff! Congrats to all who entered, and thanks to all who voted for my design!
