I decided to fiddle with some things, as I enjoy pattern making and hadn't made one for this. I used the bits and pieces I had monoprinted, & previously made, as well as drawing up the lily digitally!
I am really happy with how this turned out!! I didn't want to use any bright bright reds as it may be a bit cliche but I think the understated muted colours match the tones of the story while still alluding to horror and gore in a way.
Since it's a pattern it's a lot of disembodied things which links vert closely with the paper-cut stuff I'm making for this project - so probably would not look out of place included in a book alongside them (even though I made this kind of separately from it)
I thought this kind of pattern could potentially be used on an inside cover of a book where there are often those spare pages filled with colour (it's hard to find mockup templates of that inside page, so forgive this janky mockup)
My bits and pieces of stuff definitely comes together more when I can bring it all into one digital image so I'm hoping that my paper-cut images will work out in my favour once I can edit and mess with them them properly in photoshop
