Illustration Friday - Cocoon



Whenever I see a Paisley print....I used to always think it looked like a cocoon ...so seeing the theme this week over at Illustration Friday made me think these were just perfect...

I also thank a wonderful client who gave me the idea to create these for my Stamp Shop...

Thank you Leigh!!!

Happy Saturday!!!

Isn't is amazing how paisley never goes out of fashion?? Whoever designed it is a genius! And you've sure captured its essence here in your cocoon... gorgeous, Diana! :)

OOOooooo I LoVe Paisley! Oh back to my hippie days...I was an original back in the late 60's. I have a favorite green paisley burned into my memory I wish I could find in fabric now. Maybe I should get your stamp and make some! **kisskiss** Deb

Gorgeous! You know, I went to a lecture on embroidery and textiles a few years back, and they reckoned that the paisley design was related to the yin-yang symbol, amongst other things.
