Two Birds Hiding by dearchickie
For this week’s design challenge, we’ve partnered with Lake, an interactive coloring app, to offer a unique spin on our usual prompts. This time, designers were asked to create black and white line art inspired by everyone’s favorite childhood activity: coloring books! Originally, the top 10 winners, chosen by Lake, were going to be a part of a special free Spoonflower coloring book pack coming out via the Lake app in January. The team at Lake were so impressed with the entires from this week’s challenge that the top 16 designs will be featured in the pack! But first, let’s start off by celebrating grand prize winner, dearchickie, who will be receiving a $200 Spoonflower credit for her design, Two Birds Hiding. Congratulations are also in order for second place (angelger28) and third place (torysevas) winners who will be receiving $100 and $50 in Spoonflower credit, respectively. Learn more about this special design challenge and see the entire top ten here.
iPhone users can get a head start by practicing their coloring skills by downloading the Lake app here.

Design-A-Day SpoonChallenge Day 5: Pen + Ink
Today's #SFDesignADay SpoonChallenge prompt features the stylish pen and ink simplicity of designer and author Lucie Duclos. She talks us through her process– from brainstorming, to drawing, to coloring–as well as the tools she uses. Be sure to follow along on the blog and in your inbox (it's not too late to sign up) until March 15 as we feature a new technique each day, presented to you by members of our talented community of designers!
Lucie: Pen and ink drawing is a line-based method of creating images. Subtle variations in style and line quality can range from whimsical and clever illustrations to super realistic drawings. There is an endless amount of pen and ink techniques, but I prefer the basic black and white line drawings because you can create strong graphics with a clean, modern look. And you can always add color at the end and still keep the black outline for definition!
