Painterly florals, wild spring botanicals, and the loose joyful feeling of a garden in full bloom. Your April creative practice starts here.
What's Inside
The Collection Brief is your home base for the month — download it, open it on your iPad, and tap everything you need directly from inside.
Your complete monthly creative guide — the Whimsy Wildflower theme, your collection palette, motif sparks, Pinterest inspiration boards, a four-week creative schedule, and links to every class, resource, and tool you need this month. Open it in Safari on your iPad and everything is one tap away.
Procreate Color Palette
A fresh seven-colour spring collection palette built specifically for this month's theme — blush pink, butter yellow, sage green, soft lavender, cornflower, warm terracotta, and petal white. Download and import straight into Procreate.
Collection Mockup
A Procreate mockup showing your three collection patterns on a beautiful kitchen windowsill scene — a tea towel, a drawstring pouch, and a seed packet. Apply your patterns in Procreate and see your full collection come to life on real products.
Interactive
An interactive inspiration board — tap or drag images into the frames, fill your board with images that inspire you, then screenshot it and keep it close while you create.
Interactive
An interactive sharing template — drop in your three finished patterns and your mockup image, screenshot the sheet, and share your Whimsy Wildflower collection.
Create With Me
This month you'll get four short Create With Me videos — not tutorials, just me sitting down with my iPad and creating my own collection in real time. Watch my process, get inspired, then go make your own.
