In Adobe Illustrator, I used the Shape Builder tool and the Shape tool to create these three flowers. First, I created the first one, which is the basic badge. That is the simplest one. Then, I moved onto the second one, using the Shape Builder + Shape tool to create a flower like shape (I combined a rectangle + an ellipse to create the petals. After that, I moved onto the third one, where I added a bit more detail with some highlights/shadows.
My design choices were to just make something like a flower, and show how I "improved". You can see the progress through the three, because as you go down each one has more detail. For the last one, I changed some of the colors because I felt as though they weren't contrasting enough. I think because of this, the green pops much better and still keeps the focus mainly on the first flower, but still adds to it. For the second one, I kind of wanted two colors that would work together, but I really just got 3 of the same color which wasn't that interesting to look at. I think if I did it again, I wouldn't want to do flowers again, because making the petals and making them try to be symmetrical every time was very hard. I think my favorite part was just watching the whole project come together. In the end, I was pretty pleased with the final product. I especially like the last one, because even though you can't really see them, the little shadows on the green kind of just add to the overall effect (that's just my personal opinion though:).
