A while ago, I came up with a design challenge to hone in my digital illustration skills. I finally found the courage to start sharing what I come up! There were several categories in the challenge: nature, food, travel, office & home. And (as you know me), there is a colour palette involved.
All of these flat design illustrations were created in Adobe Illustrator* Enjoy!

Digital Illustration Challenge
15 vector illustrations in flat design style
If you can’t wait to see all of the illustrations from the challenge, watch a video below:
Day 1 - Cactus
Potted houseplant, cacti illustration inspired by the chopping board I found a way back in London’s TK Maxx and have been using it ever since. I’m definitely a crazy plant lady, so anything with flower/plant motif melts my heart
Day 2 - Leaf
A lot of my vector illustrations are heavily influenced by nature. Here’s a flat design minimalist leaf drawing.
Day 3 - Umbrella
It’s time to debunk the biggest myth – everyone says that London is the rainiest city out there. After living here for almost 2 years (time flies!) I can confidently say that it’s so far from the truth!
I designed this brolly illustration based on the famous Queen’s umbrella. I actually got one for my birthday (dreams come true!) but I barely use it
Day 4 - Water Drop
I don’t know why, but I always find water drops inspiring, especially on plants after the rain.
Day 5 - Lollipop
My out of the box approach to lollipop illustration.
Day 6 - Strawberry
Strawberry flat design illustration. Summer vibes during Winter
Day 7 - Toast
A healthy toast with tomato & basil
Day 8 - Popcorn
I’m usually a fan of salty snacks, but recently I enjoy toffee popcorn hence this illustration
Day 9 - Beach hut
Inspired by the famous British beach huts around the seaside
Day 10 - Mountains
Ever since I was 5 years old, I went on mountain-holiday with my sister & parents. They’ll always have a special place in my heart
Day 11 - Seashell
Whenever I’m at the sea, I always go seashell hunting
Day 12 - Hourglass
There’s something profound about hourglasses. Maybe it’s that they allow you to focus on a moment.
Day 13 - Calendar
Everyone seems to dread 13th, especially Friday’s. But my husband and I love them! Why? Because we became an official couple on 13th September, almost 12 years ago. The fun fact is that ever since, whenever we can, we’ve been celebrating monthaversaries
Day 14 - Pillows
Digital illustration of pillows, for all the sleepyheads out there
Day 15 - Pencil holder
This is the last day of my illustration challenge! Let’s wrap it up with a bunch of art supplies in a pencil pot
I’m so excited for 2020! Happy New Year Minties! 🥂💚🥳🎉
