New Kickstarter Project: Patterned Travel Card Holders
If you follow me on Twitter or Facebook you may have seen the sneak peek's of my upcoming project, and at last I can reveal all.. a Kickstarter Project!
After the success of my previous Kickstarter project I thought it would be great to create a new project. Many of my backers were keen to be involved in future projects and I was keen to expand my product lines but minimum orders simply made this impossible. So a new project was born!
The project is to create Patterned Travelcard Holders featuring 6 of my original designs; Bright Letters, Garden Floral, Falling Feathers, IKAT Flowers, Patterned Arrows and Inky Floral.
Please pledge to the project if you can and get yourself and your friends some lovely Travel Card Holders in return! I really appreciate any help. You can also help by sharing the project on your blog, twitter, Facebook, other social media sites and word of mouth to get as many people to see as possible!
Thank you so much in advance for all your help sharing, funding and supporting my project!
Below are some buttons which can be added to your sites, blogs, shared on Twitter and Facebook to help raise awareness of the project. Please save these and link them to my Kickstarter page: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/978006901/rosie-simons-patterned-travel-card-holders

Limited Edition Kleenex Box Design Contest
Today I'm sharing with you my design for the Kleenex box design contest. Kleenex teamed up with design expert Kelly Hoppen MBE and invited artists and designers to create fashionable, unique and innovative box designs for the chance to see them on-shelf as one of three boxes available to buy in the Autumn/Winter design refresh.
Kelly Hoppen shared key interior trends for the season and I focused my design around royal purples, reds and oranges with an on-trend IKAT design. (seen below)
Now I need your help, if you like my design PLEASE vote for it! I would love to see my design on-shelf! You can vote here. Thank you in advance!

Colour of the week: Mint Makes
If you're a regular reader on the blog you will have seen my new feature 'colour of the week' which I introduced on Monday. Today I am sharing with you the design I have made with this week's colour; mint.
I've wanted to make an IKAT print for ages, I love textured prints and patterns. Last week I learnt how to create IKAT style texture in Illustrator, which I also used in my new Ikat Roses collection, and thought it would be the perfect use for this week's mint colour. I used one of the colour palettes I posted in the colour of the week post, combining lovely soft pastels with a strong orange.
Check back soon as I have some VERY exciting news to share soon involving a new product!

Ikat Inspiration
Ikat designs have been around for a while now and although they have been on my radar and I have been aware that they are there I haven't been particularly drawn to them.. until now.
I was browsing American Eagle and discovered some incredible Ikat denim shorts.. then some pretty ikat dresses and finally some gorgeous ikat scarves..
I love the shapes and the textures used in ikat prints, there's something very modern about them but they still have a natural feel.
I've shared some of the lovely examples I found below, enjoy!

Absolutely adore the colour palette and patterns on this scarf, might have to get myself one! Don't be surprised if a colour inspiration post featuring this scarf crops up soon! I could do a post alone of the gorgeous American Eagle scarves! So many loves patterns and colours! Pretty scarves are making me excited for autumn!
