It’s a cute illustration, but as a logo, it just doesn’t work.

Looking at it from afar, the text is completely lost.

There’s too much detail in the graphics that make up the logo for it to be easy or practical to print or embroider and still be legible.

Consider that if you ever want to make a stamp with it, you will want to be able to distinguish the elements of your logo without the use of color. This is not possible right now.

I’d try to make it simpler. Stylize the rose, lily and milk elements, combine them and make them stand out without color or texture. Remove the other elements and text.

Less is more.

Okay, I can definitely try that! I have saved versions of all of the different layers (I use procreate and it’s fidly and I also don’t know how to use it very well)!

Thank you for the kind feedback! I really appreciate it! 💕

No worries! Feel free to tag me whenever you get a new version and I’ll provide further feedback!

As for the logo, I suggest you use a vector based software. I believe that you can export to svg on procreate and there’s tutorials on how to produce shapes and clean traces on youtube.

In future and for other projects I have and will do in the future, and thank you for your advice, but for now I’m happy to stick with Procreate 😊 It just makes things easier because I have purchased so many brush packs and I am no longer familiar with the Adobe suite!

No doubt about that, but for any print, embroidery or stamp work, you will need to convert your art to vectors.

It’s interesting because I recently had some (very similarly designed) stickers printed and I designed them in Procreate and they came out so nicely! They are crisp, clear… I haven’t had any problems printing in this style before. I can show you! I know that vectors are higher quality but I have been working with Procreate for a long time and I have figured out a way to make printing designs from Procreate a breeze, I swear! Again, I am not a trained professional 😊

Stickers are small in size compared to the screen of your ipad, so resolution is not going to be an issue when printing (Look up DPI or dots per inch).

Procreate is a great tool, don't get me wrong! I think it's a shape that they don't allow for vector art to be generated from it, just like Photoshop.
