Poinsettias and Pine

My first attempt with the poinsettias was disappointing because it didn't convert well with Image Trace in Illustrator.  So I took different approach with illustration working with the white space and was much happier with outcome.

First Try

Second Try

I kept the colors simple, and ended up using the Global Adjustment feature in the Recolor Art work box to warm up the palette a bit.

Happier with final result now.

Some mock ups with pattern.  Like how it worked on throw pillow and little pouch, and think it could look good as apron and as wrapping paper since it's seasonal. Thanks for a great class Bonnie!!
