Spoonflower Fall Leaves Contest

 
I started off with this bunch of leaves (picture above) I collected from the park on Monday afternoon.
I wanted to enter the Spoonflower contest but the deadline was Tuesday.
This was a very fast design...it only took two hours to do.
It is a simple design but it seems to work well!
 
 
In Photoshop I choose to utilize Pantone Colours with a Watercolour brush.
The colours I used are: 166C, 7409C, 485C, 1815C and 2905C.
Working on a white background is usually a risky choice but adding an extra colour was effecting the overall design. It might be interesting to see if the design would work with some random dots on the white spaces.
I treated the leaf repeat in the same way as the Harlequin design (picture below) I posted about a few weeks ago.
