Prints for Sunborne - by paigecritchley.com

Vibrant Print Designs for Kidswear

Drawings/illustrations, graphic design, print design

Here are some fun and bright prints I designed for Sunborne, an outdoor lifestyle kidswear brand based in Australia.

I am very happy with how these turned out! Since I started out as a print and graphic designer I have always loved being able to experiment with colour and vibrancy. My favourite prints to create are the ones that are bold and stand out, especially if they are a little abstract.

I have to say, I love designing for Australian brands in the winter months, it’s a reminder that the sunshine is always out somewhere on this planet, despite the terrible weather we are having here in England at the moment. Can’t wait for summer!

Here are some of my favourites that I designed for the new collection:

NOWCA Sub10 Club badges - designed by paigecritchley.com

Designing Badges for Cold Water Swimming Enthusiasts

graphic design

It’s that time of the year again! It’s getting colder and lots of us are keeping up the swimming and dipping, even in under 10 degrees conditions. I was asked to design the Sub10 Club badges again for NOWCA this year. The Sub10 Club is a cold water community that swim through the Winter when water temperatures are most likely to drop below 10°C. The goal is to help and support like minded swimmers and to enjoy the physical and mental health benefits of cold water swimming in a safe setting. Read more about this awesome club by clicking >here<.
Here are the badges that I designed for 2025:

Any activities in water, especially cold water swimming has a big place in my heart as I enjoy it so much and it influences a lot of my work. I try and swim in the sea all year round, no wetsuit! Brrrrr!

Swim, Surf & Skate Inspired Bedding Artworks

graphic design, print design

I’m so excited! My first collection for a bedding company is out now. I was asked by the lovely Jo’s Dreamland to design a range of artworks which included surfing, swimming, and skateboarding themes. I’ve mentioned a few times on previous posts that swimming and surfing has a big place in my heart and I get so much inspiration from it. I’ve also done a bit of skateboarding but I can’t say I am any good at it 🤣. I absolutely loved designing these artworks for this company. Thank you for working with me Jo’s Dreamland!

Are you creating a textile based company and need help designing the artwork for it, or do you have a surface pattern in mind that you would like creating for your bedroom or other textile product in your home?

Cat furniture artwork for The Refined Feline - designed by paigecritchley.com

Creative Cat Furniture Artwork Design

Drawings/illustrations, graphic design

Sometimes I get asked to create artwork for products I would never expect! These artworks were created for The Refined Feline, a company selling cat furniture for feline lovers. This project was so much fun, I got to work with a bunch of bright colours and abstract shapes – my favourite kind of project!

These artworks were created for cat scratching posts but sadly didn’t get to production stages. Thankfully though I have been given permission to share them with you. I hope you like them! See below the artwork and a visual mockup of how the product would have looked, had it of been launched.

Have a great day!

Print design inspired by the bird of paradise plant for ShocSox. Designed by paigecritchley.com

Bird of Paradise Design on ShocSox: A Creative Journey

Drawings/illustrations, print design

I’ve got some exciting news! One of my print designs has been used on a pair of sand socks for ShocSox! I loved creating this design and enjoyed working with this brand. The bird of paradise is one of my favourite plants, and it was great to be able to create a repeatable pattern from its beautiful leaves and flowers.

Happy avocados!

print design

I was hired to design a print for a new babywear company called Tiny Blooms. The print features hand painted cute smiley avocados. I have to say, I am a sucker for an avocado! I even eat them on their own with a spoon (topped with some salt and pepper of course). So as you can imagine, I loved creating this design.

See are some images showing the design and how it looks on the final product. I am really happy with how it’s turned out.

Logo for new gardening business

Drawings/illustrations, graphic design

A new gardening business, ‘Arnica Gardens‘ has just started up in B.C. Canada and I was asked to design the logo for it. It’s inspired by the Arnica flower and the client wanted to keep it looking joyful and bright by using the pops of colour in this flower within the logo. I travelled some areas of Canada, B.C. in particular, a few years ago and the colours that arrive at certain times of the year are really bright and gorgeous. This was a really enjoyable project. Read more below.

I use flowers and nature to inspire a lot of my work and also really enjoy drawing and painting these natural forms. Flowers, plants and other elements in nature can be seen in lots of my prints and graphics, mostly used in fashion and product. I have a section in my portfolio purely for flowers and plants, take a look by clicking here.
