Animal Love Day – Giraffe!
On 08, May 2013 | 4 Comments | In Animal Love Day, animals, design, designer, illustration, inspiration, my work | By Tina
Hi everyone. Welcome to another Animal Love Day in this weekly feature of lovely animal patterns and illustrations. Today is a long post because our special guest is very tall!
I hope you look forward to these posts each week.
The animals covered will include birds, fish, insects, extinct creatures and mythical creatures.
First I will show you a new pattern I’ve been working on and then a designer showcase of beautiful patterns and illustrations.
So a big, tall welcome to our guest this week – the giraffe! Such a beautiful, elegant creature – have you ever seen a giraffe in real life? They walk with the grace and poise of a catwalk model – amazing to watch!
MY DESIGN
Sweet Baby Giraffes by Dreaming on a Star
I made a patchwork design with baby giraffes in sweet colours.

I love the complimentary colour palette – the animals seem to ‘pop‘ out of the design!

Fabulous giraffe illustration with lovely textures from Fall Down Tree.

Hi Tina. I called by the other day on my ipad and didn’t leave a comment but popped back today to say – LOVELY post – love your new designs and those on here – I am a huge giraffe fan so I found these hugely charming. Looking forward to next week’s.

Thank you Gill. Glad you like them. I noticed the day after I wrote the post, I spotted your giraffe illustration (and a few more by other designers!). Typical!
